    "content": "I am glad that the RBC has nominated Sen. Cheruiyot to the Committee on Information and Technology. I was a Member of the Committee and know that it has a huge impact on how our country is being run. There are important projects that are going on in the country at the moment, including the Last Mile Fibre Optic Cable Installation Project. The Senate Committee on Information and Technology has played a significant role in guiding this process. There is also the Last Mile Project which has to do with connection of electricity to all parts of the country, which this Committee has a role to play. We are now roping in the Kenya Power Company to the play a part in the Last Mile Fiber Optic Cable Installation Project. I am sure that the young Senator from Kericho will make a significant contribution in this Committee as he continues to play his role. Lastly, I thank the RBC for nominating me to be the Chair of the Sessional Committee on Devolved Government. It is a responsibility that I have taken with gusto, as the Senator for West Pokot said. I have brought several statements to this House. With all due respect to the previous Chairman, the Senator for Elgeyo - Marakwet, we have held a significant number of meetings in the last few weeks, which is almost equivalent to the meetings that were held some several months before. We will try hard to get quorum. We also have the former Chairman in the Committee and I am sure he will give us some guidance. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I want to thank and commend all the Members of the Senate who have been given responsibilities in the various Committees. I know that they are all able to perform all the activities that the Committee requires them to do, including attending the various sessions of the Committee. Most of the Senators here are intelligent, experienced and will make significant contributions. I support this Motion and wish every Senator who has been given a responsibility to make a contribution to the country the best as they continue to do so."
