    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is very sad when matters of this nature which are very urgent and very important are responded to in that manner. Various committees and the Government – in this case the Cabinet Secretaries (CSs) – are handling some of these issues very casually. There is a growing trend within the CSs in this country to take for granted issues being raised in this House. We do not stand here to raise issues and seek statements on our own behalf but we do this because of the counties and the people that we represent. Mr. Speaker, Sir, one of the greatest challenges this country if facing is lack of proper priority. What would be more of a priority to a CS that would allow him to take three, four or five weeks to respond to such an important matter that affects the lives of this country? I request you to extend the direction that you gave yesterday to the Ministry of Interior and Coordination of National Government to this particular Ministry whose officials are perpetually unable to respond to issues in time, so that many of the Kenyans who need these answers can be satisfied."
