    "content": "Hon. Members, if you look at the Constitution, we always get reports from the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP), the EACC and the Chief Registrar of the Judiciary. Those reports are referred to the relevant committees mandated to deal with them because they oversight. It will be useful that those committees also, after studying those reports, report to the House what they have found out from them. They are not meant to be kept in the shelves. So, as we move forward and, indeed, as the Leader of the Majority Party had communicated earlier, even Cabinet Secretaries (CSs) will be required to comply with this directive. They are required under the Constitution to submit reports to this House about the functions of their ministries. So, we will want to see every committee getting seized of the reports referred to them and act on them so that we do not have this unusual penchant for setting up ad-hoc committees. I am mindful that the Member for Soi has just approached me and complained that I have denied him a job that he was being given by the Member for Gatundu South. I can see Hon. Atandi is also anxious to comment that he has also lost a job."
