    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I think you have said it, but I just wanted to add that if a committee generates a Bill, then certainly the chair of that committee would introduce the Bill to the House and then take responsibility. But when Bills come from the Executive, it is upon the Executive to make a determination as to whether they will use the Leader of the Majority Party. By the way, I think it is just clear that the Bill should come through the Leader of the Majority Party and if he decides that he wants to delegate, he can easily use his foot soldiers, the various chairs of committees. The assumption is that chairs of committees do not really have to come from the party that forms the majority. Sometimes, for example in the case that we have today, maybe NASA could provide, with the support of Hon. Keter, Hon. Kangogo and the rest, chair of a committee. In that case then you would expect that the Executive at that time may not be very comfortable with the chair to introduce a Bill that comes from the Executive.
