    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I support this Motion. When this Authority was formed, it had a purpose and it was given a timeframe. Its terms and mandate were well stipulated. When it was formed, it started its mandate. They have been doing their work until it reached a point when they felt that there was a need. They had not completed their work. They requested for extension of time so that they could complete whatever they had been assigned to do. The Government granted the extension. During that extension period, they were supposed to burn the midnight oil and ensure that the remaining work which had not been completed was finalised. I support this Report. Either those people were not committed to the task they were entrusted to by Kenyans or they felt that they needed more time to earn their salaries. Therefore, I agree with the Report that the rest of the work which is pending as stated in the Report be taken over by the IGRTC. I believe that we have qualified and competent people in the Government to carry over the remaining work so that as they embark on it, we do not overburden the already overburdened Government Budget. We have other more important issues which we are supposed to be dealing with and the Government is supposed to fund such as security and education. These are very important to this nation.
