    "content": "he wants to do it by way of petition, I would direct that the Committee concerned does what he requests. Just to guide the Committees, sometimes some of these petitions do not require you to go out to the villages and walk around with your naked eyes to see this or the other. You can just invite the officials here and ask them why it has taken long, how the contract was awarded and whether it was properly awarded, and give directions without necessarily going to visit in situ, as it were. That seems to be taking a lot of Committees’ time. Committees do not have to move all over the country investigating some of these issues. I want to encourage more Members to utilise the avenue of Questions so that when a Cabinet Secretary appears before the committee and gives an undertaking in a matter like this, then the Committee on Implementation would take up the assurance given by the Cabinet Secretary, the Principal Secretary or whomever and then within the stipulated time call them to hold them to account as to the execution of the undertaking they give. I see there is desire to contribute or make comment. Member for South Imenti."
