    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I appreciate the support received from your Office and the Members of the Committee. Yesterday, the Chairperson of the Public Investments Committee (PIC) noted that this is a young Committee, but we had it in the last Parliament. I have tried to go to the archives to establish the history of the Committee but I have got very scanty information. However, I am made to understand that it used to be there during the KANU days, maybe, in another name. There was a deliberate effort then, as I am told by a Member who I think is serving the fifth term in Parliament, to make sure that the Committee on Implementation did not function. Now, the political will is there. We are alive to the fact that this is a very important Committee to make sure that Parliament is not turned into a conveyor belt and to make sure that we are not reduced to a talk shop; that whatever comes as a product of deliberations on the Floor of this House are taken seriously and fully implemented. I beg to move and call upon my Vice-Chairperson, Hon. David Gikaria to second the Motion."
