Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, looking at the role of the Senate, and I quote where it says that the Senate represents and protects the interests of counties through law making and oversight.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we are a civilised institution in which the people of Kenya have invested and continue to invest a lot in us.

We are here by law and by virtue The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
