    "content": " Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the questions by Mr. Mbadi and Mr. Chachu were identical and they relate to the mandate of the taskforce vis-a-vis Parliament. The way that we have operated in the past is that most legislation originates from the Executive and then comes to Parliament. What the Minister for Local Government has done is to set up a taskforce consisting of experts on devolution. Those experts are going to go round the country collecting views from people and professionals and prepare a memorandum which will be translated into a Sessional Paper. That paper will finally come to this House for debate by hon. Members. Therefore, Parliament is going to have an opportunity to input into that policy document before it finally becomes a Government document."
