    "content": "Well said. Hon. Nyikal, this is work in progress. That is why we have dedicated County Hall to be the only venue for that particular exercise. Unlike in the past when every committee would be in some room somewhere, we now have a venue. Even the CSs used to have difficulties finding where a particular committee was sitting. We have deliberately decided that on Tuesday mornings, Questions would be responded to by CSs at the County Hall Chamber so that the media and everybody knows that that is where the various CSs, as stated by the Leader of the Majority Party, will be appearing at the respective times. The Members must also note that they are required to be present. In any event, the procedure is that the Member raises his Question – not necessarily reading the Question afresh – and the CS responds. That same Member is given the first opportunity to ask the first supplementary question. Whoever is on the chair is supposed to check the number of Questions that the particular CS is going to respond to within the one hour allocated and then know how many other Members raising supplementary questions will be allowed to do so. The exercise starts at 10. 00 a.m. Members should know the CSs who will appear at specific times. We will be providing them some small room where they can sit and have what parliamentarians taste when it is around tea time. We are generous also in some respect. They will be relaxing there waiting for their turn to go in to be asked questions and to respond to them. Like I have said, it is work in progress, as we move on, we will see how we can improve it. There are suggestions on ways of trying to improve it further, but we want to start now with The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
