    "content": " Thank you. Hon. Speaker, the question that is being canvassed is whether a CAS can answer questions in Parliament or not. These people are called Chief Administrative Secretaries. Chiefs are in the villages but the CASs are in Nairobi. I believe those are meant to be like Assistant Ministers. In the old format of Parliament, Assistant Ministers like Hon. Duale used to answer questions on the Floor of the House. That is what the Executive was trying to copy by using a bypass but not the main highway to get to that position. I do not know whether the Ministers will now be required because as you have clearly said, they are not recognised in the Constitution. The people with executive authority who are recognised in the Constitution are the PSs and the CSs."
