Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. I want to bring to order and ask the Member who is speaking, what is this Infotrack that she is talking about? We have known of fake people walking around and ranking Members of Parliament. Usually, they are sponsored by people who become number one. So, what is it and where did you get it from?

Sorry for taking senior Hon. Kioni’s time but in the morning you ruled that because of the spacing now, the mask is a must. Could the Hon. Member put on his mask? Thank you.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I want to support the amendment by the Chair. They are actually Committee amendments. In the first one, the idea was to expand the leave for people adopting a child. However, we thought it was important to balance between the employer's interest of always wanting the employees to be at work and also the human aspect of taking care of a child. That is why the Chair is settling on one month. However, in the second case of surrogacy, there is no law that really governs surrogacy in this country. In addition, like the ...

Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. Let me congratulate the Chairperson of the Special Funds Accounts Committee for this Report. The Report is a true reflection of what is happening everywhere in the country. It shows exactly the face of NG-CDF not only in the constituencies in Kiambu County, but also in the entire country. It speaks on things that we are also feeling from where we are even though it was a case study in Kiambu County. An example is lack of standardisation of projects, which we are facing in all parts of Kenya. The Report also speaks of the ...

many other things around youths. So, possibly as a Committee, help us to increase the percentage not only of the Fund, but also of that allocation of the youth, so that they benefit commensurately to their numbers and population in the country. Thank you for this chance, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I beg to support.

Thank you Hon. Deputy Speaker. I think commenting on the issue of education and agreeing with Hon. Wangwe, it is an area that continuously brings many questions. Moreover, I happen to be a member of the Committee on Education. Therefore, I think the advice that has already been given by Hon. Wangwe - and which I think we shall adapt - is to actually call the CS because the capitation is given as follows: 50% in the first term, 30% in the second term and 20% in the third term. However, within that bracket, there are allocations. So, currently, you ...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for this opportunity. I want to fully support this Report by the Committee and also thank the Chairman. Of course, as the Member for Embakasi East did state, this is a very strong Member of Parliament for Mvita. I hear that he has interest there, we wish him well if he has to become the governor. This Report is spot on and maybe it just shows the quality of person he is. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I will begin by stating the original reason why State corporations - sometimes called parastatals - were created. ...
