Billow to make his contribution I want to make it very clear that what the Members have requested, starting with Sen. M. Kajwang and supported by the rest of you, is in good faith. I do not think you are making a statement against the Committee. You are basically requesting to know what transpired. Let us not put it as if they have refused to do the job. I think this is the first time we are getting a Mediation Committee failing to come up with a version of a Bill that is acceptable to the Committee and to be adopted by both Houses. We have always succeeded and so, this is quite a new one. I think it is a fair request to know because it is the first time it is happening. I can understand why Members would want to know what really transpired. Sen. Billow, the House is demanding a report."}
