    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Before I lay the papers on the Table, I request that you allow me to congratulate the new leadership of our counterparts on the minority side on their appointment. We have had this problem for some time. I am sure that the appointments will help us move forward. I want to be more specific that I congratulate Hon. Junet Mohamed, who is now the Chief Whip of the Minority Party. As usual, whips have always supported each other. I invite him that immediately after this, we may take some tea together so that we agree on the way forward. I am aware that he is in the House. I also invite the Deputy Whip of the Minority Party, Hon. Chris Wamalwa. I was of the feeling that the House leadership also needs to bring out the face of Kenya. As the Jubilee Coalition, we have to admit that we did not do very well in Coast in the last general elections, but our NASA counterparts have 17 Members of Parliament from the Coast region. We were thinking that they would use that opportunity to, at least, bring somebody from Coast so that we have the face of Kenya in the House leadership. That said and done, Hon. Wandayi talked of robust leadership on the NASA side. I just want to inform you that also in the Jubilee Party side, we have robust Members of Parliament who are ready to articulate Government business in this House. Hon. Speaker, I beg to lay the following Papers on the Table of the House: A list of nominees to 17 National Government Constituencies Development Fund (NGCDF) Committees from the National Government Constituencies Development Fund Board.
