    "content": "It had lawyers with very good reputation, engineers, legislatures, including my brother Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale, and ladies of high standing in the society. The Committee has done a tremendous and commendable job on a very complex subject which is of national importance and great interest to every Kenyan. The terms of reference of this Committee were very clear. First of all, they were to inquire into the design and arrangement of Parliament itself. To look at the Senate and find out if then current arrangements are suited to the mandate of the Senate in terms of protecting the interests of the 47 county governments in the country. It was also mandated to inquire into the role of the Senate under the current constitutional dispensation. They were to find out if we can place this Senate in a better position to be able to get involved in such matters as budget-making process. The Senate must play its part more effectively in terms of representation, legislation and oversight."
