    "content": "On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Our Standing Orders are clear on the role of Committees in this House. Is the good Senator for Nandi, who has dismayed and shattered my hopes for what is happening in this House, in order to say that he wants to ask the Cabinet Secretary for Devolution and ASAL areas, Hon. Wamalwa, how the Senate is involved in a matter that ideally, as the Chairperson of the Committee on Justice, Legal Affairs and Human Rights together with the Chairperson of the Committee on Devolution and Intergovernmental Relations should be informing the House on how counties are engaging in regional blocs? Is he in order to shirk his responsibility as the Chairperson of the Committee on Justice, Legal Affairs and Human Rights? The Senate must be taking the lead; front and center on the issue of the legal framework for counties to engage in the regional development blocs. They have, however, left it to the Cabinet Secretary for Devolution and ASAL areas, Hon. Wamalwa, who, as far as I can remember, has never been elected a Senator."
