    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am sorry for coming to the House a bit late. It is because we are already in the field, campaigning, and our counties are far removed from Nairobi. I thought about this as I drove to Nairobi - for all the hours it has taken me - and told myself: Let me see how the Speaker will drive this. According to parliamentary traditions, the Speaker does not move the House on its business. Regarding the business before this House, in respect of this Mediation Committee, the very least I would have expected is that we be moved by the Senate Majority Leader, the Senate Minority Leader or a person representing them. If the Committee failed to meet and elect a Chair and Vice Chairperson, who would then have ordinarily moved this House on this important business that nothing took place? In the absence of the Senate Majority Leader and the Senate Minority Leader moving the House, are we sure that we are doing the right thing when we now give you that responsibility; that you are reporting to us that a Committee which you appointed did not meet?"
