    "content": "The Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Transport, Public Works and Housing is here. We would like to see a joint committee of the Departmental Committee on Transport, Public Works and Housing, and the Departmental Committee on Finance, Planning and Trade investigate Kenya Airways, so that they can bring a report here as to the problems affecting it. Kenya Airways is under new management. I think there are questions about the board. We would like to see that board changed. We would like to see huge changes in KQ. With respect to Mumias, I hope that my colleagues, Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Agriculture, Livestock and Co-operatives and the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Finance, Planning and Trade can bring to this House a joint report on Mumias Sugar Company. Finally, it would be very helpful if at some point we can get a copy of the report on parastatal reforms that was generated under the leadership of Isaac Awuondo and Abdikadir Mohamed on the parastatals. These parastatals are a great concern to the taxpayer. Today, the parastatals are taking 3 per cent of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP), which is not small change. I hope that sooner rather than later, there can be serious attention given by this House and the leadership of this country with respect to the parastatals. When we come to the Committee of the whole House stage, I will move some amendments with respect to Mumias Sugar Company. Perhaps, this is the time to make that public. With those few remarks, I beg to reply."
