I support this Motion. I urge the Members to approve it. We have seen people in the press saying that they sat under a tree and were promised a certain position.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I rise to support the recommendations of this Report. But before that, I thank Hon. Millie Odhiambo for her very gracious comments.
