In order for us to be satisfied that the bridges in our various constituencies are among those 58, could he table that list and tell us how much money he has requested from his colleague on his left to ensure that these bridges are, indeed, constructed so that we do not have to wait for another 17 years, as my friend hon. Nyamai had to wait? Could he give us the list and assure us how much money he requested from his colleague to ensure that these bridges are done?

Thank you, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. Could the Minister agree with me that the Board of Governors (BoGs) have played a very crucial role to assist the Government to fill up the shortage of teachers that exists in the country? If he agrees with me, would he also consider allocating the money that he has not spent to the BoGs in the various schools through the constituency so that they can continue to perform the task of helping him where he has miserably failed to employ teachers? They are doing a very good job.

On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Having heard the opinion of the two doctors and your own concerns, it is important to note that when any Kenyan citizen of whatever age dies under suspicious circumstances, the law under the criminal procedure code, and the Attorney-General is here and will confirm, states that an inquest should be opened by the District Magistrate Courts nearest to the scene. Could the Assistant Minister consider referring this matter to the Attorney-General for advice so that an inquest file can be opened immediately, to ensure that we can have full circumstances under judicial ...

Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, at least, the Assistant Minister is finally becoming honest. May we know the original 70 districts and those that are left after leaving out the 36 districts, so that we can satisfy ourselves that those responsible for this decision were not doing it in a discriminatory manner? Could he table a list showing the 70 districts and the 36 districts that remained and the provinces?

On a point of order, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. As he does that, could he apologize to the Chair and the House for misleading the House that he has the list here and he can table it now, when he knew that he was not in a position to do so?

In that event, is it not proper that the Prime Minister indicates to us what he will be addressing to us and defers it to next Wednesday, given that it is only five minutes before we go to commencement of Business? Therefore, we will not have time to interrogate him, comment or seek clarification on the issues he wants to address the House on?

Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I join those who have condemned this criminal terrorist act on the people of Kenya. I condemn the perpetrators in the strongest terms possible. Having said that, it is gratifying to note from the Minister that Apostle Ngâangâa had requested and given notification to the police for this rally. We, who have been holding similar rallies know that every licence or notification when it is allowed is conditioned. Those organizing these meetings are obliged under the law to take certain measures to ensure that there is peace during the entire session in addition to the police ...

Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, the clarification is: Why did the police not ensure that the conditions attached to the licence were fulfilled and ensure that the meetings ended by 6.00 p.m. so that the innocent Kenyans did not have to wait until dark when criminals had the opportunity to do what they did? What action has the Minister taken against the officers who were on duty that day in investigating this matter? What action has he taken to assure himself that they did not participate together with the criminals in organizing this criminal act?
