    "content": "Hon. Speaker, it was because of the accounting of the money that the Committee was questioned. It, therefore, means, without casting unnecessary aspersions, that somebody was tickled by the questioning on Members’ money. When you eat in this restaurant, you pay Kshs600 for that food. I have not met you there lately, Hon. Speaker. The food is despicable! It is not worth Kshs200. Somebody went somewhere and put that price. What the Members are asking is: “How is it that, that kind of money is paid for that kind of food and where does the money go?”That is what the Committee is asking. So, you cannot dissolve a Committee because it is questioning those issues. Its mandate is to manage the Fund. If you ask these Members how many of them now do not go to that restaurant because of the quality of food, you will get 90 per cent. They are not interested. What we are being confronted with is unnecessary. We can bring the Senators on board but this is a Motion that needs to be stood down."
