In fact, I was going further than even getting the Statement from the Cabinet Secretary who will appear before my Committee. I was going to seek further directions from the Public Service Commission. Mr. Mabea has been mentioned as having been the Commissioner of Lands. The handing over was not ...

Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker. The other thing is that last week you gave direction that I shelve the delivery of a Statement that was sought by the hon. Member for Laikipia North, hon.

17 Oct 2013 in National Assembly:
Hon. Deputy Speaker, I will begin with the clarification that was sought by hon. Lempurkel on the matter of compensation.

However, where the Committee will be recalled to guide and maybe give some advice, we shall deal with that as a Committee. I thank hon. Lelit because what he has done is first of all ...
