    "content": "The Reports of the Auditor-General on the Financial Statements in respect of the following constituencies for the year ended 30th June 2016, and the certificates therein: (a) Nyakach Constituency. (b) Mbita Constituency. (c) Kitutu Chache North Constituency. (d) Roysambu Constituency. (e) Dagoretti North Constituency. (f) Suna West Constituency. (g) Bomachoge Borabu Constituency. If you allow me, I will make a comment on one of the Papers I have just laid. It is the 4th Quarter Report of the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission for the period covering 1st October, 2017 to 31st December 2017. While the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) has been blamed for not doing its work, it religiously continues to send to Parliament its quarterly Reports as required by law. Those Reports normally contain summary of cases that are forwarded to the Director of Public Prosecution (DPP). Why I am so much concerned about this Report is that it has 40 files which were forwarded to DPP for prosecution: 27 files were recommended for prosecution; 24 were prosecuted and 10 files were recommended for closure. Some of the cases considered under this period of review include cases touching on Members of this House. My thought is to request the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs to take time to note these reports and compile a report for deliberation in this House, so that we can all appreciate the work of this institution and deal with the matters they have cited in this Report."
