    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, last week, the House considered the Motion of the Committee on 10 counties, which were Nandi, Elgeyo-Marakwet, Baringo, Laikipia, Machakos, West Pokot, Tharaka-Nithi, Siaya, Embu and Nairobi. In the last Session, the Committee brought before the House seven Reports that were adopted and these were reports for the counties of Nakuru, Turkana, Kilifi, Kisii, Kajiado, Narok and Homa Bay.There are 26 Reports at the Table Office and 10 additional reports that our Clerks are working on, which shall be brought before this House. Our intention is to ensure that by the end of this Session, all the Reports for FY 2013/2014 and 2014/2015 shall have been brought to this House for consideration. They shall hopefully be adopted so that we can follow up on implementation and deal with the other three years, where the hearings have already taken place. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, in the debate on the Motion that we brought before the House last week which had 10 counties, it was fairly disappointing that it attracted contributions from just about four Senators. I would expect that the Motion before the House today, which has 20 counties, should get the contribution of at least 20 Senators. This is because I believe as far as oversight is concerned, the issue of scrutinizing the Auditor-General’s reports has been delegated to the CPAIC. Not every Member of this House sits in that Committee. We do a job as an agent of the House. When we bring the Report to this House, we would expect each and every Senator whose county forms part of that Motion to, at least, agree or disagree with the findings of the Committee. 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."
