"content": "Let us have a regulation of dealing with our Members. Parliament is independent. We have the Parliamentary Powers and Privileges Act. We should not allow any other agency to come and deal with Members. This House must regulate itself because the moment we allow ourselves to be investigated by other agencies, then we lose that independence. I am sure the great Members who are in the Committee on Powers and Privileges like Hon. Tuwei and Hon. Mwathi will look at that. I think there is something that we wanted to introduce in the 11th Parliament, which Members refused. We must have an office of integrity that deals with our matters from staff to the membership under the chair of our Speaker. I think today is a good day. You have gone on record and it is not very good that we spend 20 to 30 minutes discussing such matters."
