If we incorporate what we have and the comments from hon. Members in this Assembly, then we will come up with a good report to give to EALA. The other one is the East African Community Integration (Education) Bill. Actually, these Bills are from private Members of EALA. The Member who owned this Bill indicated from the outset that this Bill touches on civic education. However, when we scrutinized it ...

On a point of order, hon. Deputy Speaker. The issue of security is very weighty, especially in Moyale Sub-county.

The Chairman stated very well that his Committee will invite the Cabinet Secretary and other Members who are interested in this matter. I request that he does that because whatever he is giving is not substantive. Hon. Members are continuing to ask questions about that Statement. I ask that you kindly rule that the Cabinet Secretary should appear before the Committee, so that all Members interested in the matter attend that meeting.
