• 8 Feb 2022 in Senate: Sen. Olekina was not there previously. So, in order to make sure that we change, he was brought on board. Sen. Sakaja also never used to be there but he came in. Sen. (Dr.) Langat was there. I was listening to him knowing that he has been there. He did not want to be heard to be saying it is not representative. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I ask Sen.

• 25 Jan 2022 in Senate: consideration of this matter emphasised the fact that you cannot table the report and discuss it the same day.
