Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I just wish to congratulate the House for supporting the wisdom of His Excellency the President.

That decision is being challenged on the Floor of this House. All the arguments have been placed here in terms of who appoints, and what the constitutional provisions are.

As Kenyans sit out there, starving, killing one another and waiting for this House to do business, we are sitting here collecting allowances of Kshs5,000 per sitting, without giving value to Kenyans. I would like to ask the Clerk not to pay me for all the sittings I have attended here until we can properly transact business in this House. This is a fraud on the Kenyan people! If we start on that basis, then we shall start doing proper business rather than coming here, making all manner of arguments and we do not do any business. We then get ...

Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I believe that the import of what Mr. Michuki said needs to be reflected upon what Mr. Midiwo talked about. We are talking about an issue of who said what and where.

What the Chairman of the Departmental Committee is doing is quoting what I said. However, we need to be clear. Is it the interpretation of the Committee as to what I said or is it what I actually said? If that becomes a matter of contention, what will the hon. Members then have to look at to establish who is telling the truth and who is being economical with the truth?
