    "content": "progress of the Committee because from the grapevine and the corridors of Parliament, we are informed that the Senate does not seem to be interested in those two Bills which originated from them. I do not fault Hon. Kimunya, knowing that he is an active Member of the House Business Committee and another one. I make this request because there is deliberate misinformation that the two Bills are pending before the National Assembly. I beseech you to require the Members of the National Assembly, whom you nominated on 23rd July 2019, to brief the House on the progress of the Mediation Committee and inform us whether the Committee has ever held a sitting. So, it is a serious matter. Our side of the Mediation Committee has been appointed and none has been appointed from the other side since July up to November. Those are four months and people out there, even the media, are saying the Bills are before the National Assembly. So, maybe, you will ask Hon. Kimunya, the Vice-Chairman from our side, to table a report before the House. That is so that people can know it is our colleagues, who are also in leadership, who own the Bills. They sit in the House Business Committee of the Senate, yet up to now they have not nominated anybody through their Speaker. That way, the country will know it is not the National Assembly. It is the Senate that has not nominated Members to this Committee, four months down the line."
