Hon. Chairlady, it is important that we consider the welfare of hon. Members. Members of Parliament cannot deliver without vehicles. Even when we want them to proceed on recess, how do they go without vehicles?

Hon. Chairlady, I hear that the Treasury has promised to disburse the grant tomorrow but, obviously, the wait has been far too long. Of what harm will it be to us to wait for the disbursement of the car grants and car loans? We need to get money to buy cars to go to our constituencies. We have not even been paid our salaries and mileage claims. I have been going to my constituency for six weeks without mileage.

Hon. Speaker, Sir, I think the issue of the roles of the National Assembly and the Senate has been debated publicly for quite some time. As hon. Ababu puts it, this should not be seen â what he has raised â as trying to undermine the Senate, but as trying to put into perspective the role of each House. Sometimes I ask myself: When Kenyans passed this Constitution, was it their intention to create two Houses to do the same job? I do not think the people of Kenya would have done that, that is created two Houses one with ...
