    "content": "More fundamentally, for the National Climate Change Council, the IEBC and CRA, we saw it not prudent for the House to be recalled for one day for the Speaker to read a Message that will be referred to committees and then we go away. So, this Motion gives the Speaker powers so that the moment he receives these Messages, he can refer them to the Committees directly. On the IEBC, he will refer it to the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs once he gets the names from the President. The same will apply to the CRA. I am sure the Departmental Committee on Environment and Natural Resources is dealing with the names for the National Climate Change Council. That is why we are also citing the Public Appointments (Parliamentary Approval) Act, 2011. It is so that they are not time barred. So, that is the consolidation of all those Procedural Motions so that as we go on Recess, before the 20th December, when we anticipate coming back to deal with all those matters, the Speaker can comfortably, through the approval of the House, send those Messages directly to the committees without reading from the Plenary. I beg to move and ask Hon. Jakoyo, who is busy with the Kisumu County Women Representative to second. I am sure they are consulting whether to go to the retreat in Mombasa or not. He is a Member of the leadership of this House and also a Member of the House Business Committee."
