    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I wish to say that being on the spot as the Committee on Implementation is very much expected because we are the convergence between the Legislature and the Executive in terms of implementation of all the business of this House. With regard to the issue raised by Hon. Muthomi, he has really generalised issues because if he has an issue with the specific question of the petition about erection of bumps in his constituency, we can undertake to bring it up as a priority for the Committee and give him the necessary feedback. Hon. Speaker, allow me to say that, as the Committee on Implementation, we have a number of resolutions that are currently before us. It is also clear for Members to know that we do not implement, but follow up on issues of resolutions of this House for implementation. We have a backlog from the previous Parliament. We have business which is being churned out from the Floor of the House every other week. So, it is a question of prioritisation. But I can assure the House that we are working as a Committee and we submitted a report before the House two months ago. We are preparing one before we go for the long recess. I urge Members who have any specific issues to please bring them to us. But they should also understand that we have a backlog that we are dealing with and it is a question of prioritisation. We are going to deal with each issue as it comes. We undertake to look into Hon. Muthomi’s issue in the next one week after we come back from recess. Thank you, Hon. Speaker."
