    "content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, it is very rare for committee chairpersons to ask for work. I wish this Statement was directed to my committee because this is a labor issue. We have various institutions that think labor laws such as Article 41 of the Constitution, the Employment Act, the Labor Relations Act, the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) Act, and other different legislations are suggestions. They are not suggestions. I confirm that I responded to the concern that was brought by Sen. (Dr.) Musuruve. I have written to the TSC on behalf of that teacher. It should not be that, for a teacher to get their rights, they need to know someone; that they need to look for their Senator or Member of Parliament (MP) to write a letter. Madam Temporary Speaker, I really wish that you would direct this to my committee because I really want to deal with those people. I am asking that you give me this. We have county governments that think statutory remittances are an option. We have people who treat our workers so badly and think that they are doing them a favor yet they are giving invaluable service to Kenyans. In as much as Sen. Wambua wants this to go to the Committee on Education, please, give this one to the Committee on Labor and Social Welfare and I will deliver and deal with it within less than two weeks."
