Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I need your protection. The Senate Chambers have been changed to a Sunday Bible school. I have a problem here. Who is going to teach me what is going on because I cannot follow. I need to know what is happening in this House as a Member. When the two Senators are talking about the extremes of the Bible and I do not understand, I need to be educated. I have no quarrel with them quoting the Bible but I need to be educated.

Madam Deputy Speaker, we are good at bringing legislation and good Bills which are never implemented. That is the problem of this country. We bring new Bills every day but nobody cares. What is the need of talking about waste

management? People are saying this is the right time. We already have many laws which can be used to take care of this. Sen. Faki has said that we have a bad habit as a country and as a people. We do not even care where we dispose our waste. The normal ones forget about the other serious ones and the ones which are severe.

Even organic waste can be used to generate that. That is a simple technology which can be used in households. The national Government failed to perform in this aspect for a long time. That is about 60 years. Now, county governments which are suffering due to lack of money are being asked to take over some functions. Money should follow functions, but county governments are mismanaging the little money they are given. By establishing other bodies with the hope of creating employment, we will cause more harm to the counties. Counties are not able to collect even little garbage within ...

Thank you, Madam Deputy Speaker. I thank the two Senators for bringing this issue to light. Teachers are the most humble and good people in the community.
