    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like to inform the distinguished Senator for Siaya County, my distinguished learned senior, that the old practice in the Houses of Parliament is that when a Member sets up an ad hoc Committee, you do not just include Members names. You consult them to see whether they are ready to serve or not. That is what Sen. (Prof.) Kamar and I did during the adhoc Committee on maize. We personally approached each and every Member who served on the ad hoc Committee on maize. Some Members declined membership because they said they had conflicting interests. The Members who agreed to be part of the ad hoc Committee did a wonderful job. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would also like to inform the Senate Minority Leader that the ad hoc Committee route resolved substantially the problems of the Kenya Airways when hon.(Prof) Anyang’-Nyong’o chaired the Committee. We substantially laid the foundation for resolving the issues that affect the maize sector in this country. Implementation of our recommendation is the problem. I believe that ad hoc Committee is the way to go to resolve this problem in the health sector."
