The experience that the Senate has is as has been mentioned by the Senate Minority Leader. It was unpleasant. As the new Chairperson of the Committee on Devolved Government, we are getting engaged in the preparation of the current Conference. In fact, Sen. (Dr.) Zani and myself have been nominated by the Speaker to sit in the steering committee, which will be meeting tomorrow in Meru, to plan for the participation of Members, including Members of the Senate. In fact, from the tentative programme which I have seen, quite a number of Senators have a role to play in this Conference in that there will be topical issues. The issues which are very relevant to Senators are included in the programme.

A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
