Madam Temporary Speaker, I rise to contribute to this Motion. Whenever we give a task to Committees of the House, it is our belief that they prosecute and execute it in the best interest of the House and the nation, and in accordance with the Constitution of Kenya.

Madam Temporary Speaker, I want to thank Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale. Indeed, as a member of this Committee, if there is important information that has not been brought before this House, then this Motion should be stood down. I am looking at a similar report of a nomination for Dr. Amoth and I am looking at the iPad here. There is an annexure that is 244 pages. It has minutes; it has details. Why is this different and it is a similar process, where we are being called upon to exercise our constitutional and statutory duty to make approvals or appointments ...
