Kembi- Gitura has raised raises a much more fundamental issue. That is in the way in which the Senate manages the answers to this question. I do not think that the answer to a question from a Cabinet Secretary (CS) should depend on the Chairperson interacting with the CS’s office nor do I think it should be the responsibility of a chairperson to search for that answer anywhere. That should be the responsibility of a particular office in charge of answers to questions in the Senate. That office should simply convey an answer to a particular chairperson and not devolve that function to chairpersons."}
