On a point of order, Madam Temporary Speaker. I would like to say the following on the comments made by my colleagues on my notice of Motion. If you look at the Notice of Motion, I read Article 188 which Sen. Khaniri is referring to because it says: “Noting the provisions of Article 188”. Article 188 talks about alteration of the boundaries while my notice of Motion does not talk about alteration of any boundary. According to me, the Districts and Provinces Act of 1992 had a Schedule which clearly states and gives geographical references of the districts per 1992. ...

Madam Temporary Speaker, the review might bring changes to boundaries which are not what I am asking for.

Madam Temporary Speaker, I am just responding; kindly be patient with me. The issues that Members are raising were actually raised at the Rules and Business Committee (RBC) and the “Queen of Kisii” was present in that meeting. The Speaker was very aware of the issues that are being raised. The Speaker approved this notice of Motion when he was well aware of Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr.’s Motion and other arguments. I, therefore, plead with the Chair to allow me to give this notice of Motion. Thank you.

On a point of order, Madam Temporary Speaker. The request for statement by the Senator for West Pokot County was to the Chairman of the Committee on Land and Natural Resources. However, I did not hear the Chairperson say anything about that Statement. Could he say when he is likely to bring a response before you call the next statement?

Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. This House cannot tolerate incompetence from any Ministry. Therefore, for the Chairman to come here and say he has problems with the Ministry of Lands, Housing and Urban Development, is not fair at all. If he has a problem, he should ask the Chair to summon the Cabinet Secretary for Lands, Housing and Urban Development here so that we can deal with him as a House. He should not call upon us to assist him in the cover up of inefficiency in the Ministry. So, I need an answer in two weeks.

Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I was asking about Hon. Charity Ngilu. The reason the name of Charity Ngilu features in my request for Statement is because when she was in the office, we received very many title deeds. There was a title centre which was operating even at night. Now it has been closed down. Madam Temporary Speaker, I did not say that my friend, Dr. Matiangi is incompetent. Indeed, he is a very competent person. However, he does not work alone in that Ministry. Sen. Khaniri was talking about the Ministry; he did not talk about a person. ...

Madam Temporary Speaker, I believe they can do so within two weeks’ time. These are just statistics that we are looking for; so, why three weeks? Even a clerk can sit down and---
