Mr. Speaker, Sir, I just want to add my voice in congratulating Sen. Musila for being consistent and pushing this matter. I also want to congratulate this House for ably debating and even passing this Motion. I also congratulate the Deputy President for taking it up.

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, thank you for this opportunity. I doubt whether the Senator of Mombasa actually knows what we are discussing this afternoon. Maybe he can acquaint himself with the Motion first. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, first of all, I would like to congratulate Sen. Halima for coming up with this very important Motion. This is an issue that we have discussed severally on issues to do with education, especially of children who come from areas which are considered marginalized for one reason or another. I also thank my colleagues who have contributed to this Motion because over time, ...

Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this very important Motion. I congratulate my colleague, Sen. Musila, for bringing this Motion and for doing a follow up on it. It is not every day that such a Motion is passed between the National Assembly and the Senate. He has taken it upon himself to follow up and to make sure that it comes before this hon. House so that we also contribute on it. This shows our lack of follow up on many other Motions that are passed regarding the lives of Kenyans ...

On a point of order, Sen. Lesuuda. Is it in order for the hon. Senator to introduce new matters? If I followed your ruling earlier on, you said that we should stick to the Motion.

Mr. Chairman, Sir, I just want to echo my colleague’s sentiments of thanking the Members of the Committee for this very important amendment. I will be brief. I just want to say that it is important for us to do the right thing when we are supposed to do it. We could have only procrastinated giving these Level 5 hospitals the funds that they need. So, it is important that we do it now because we will still have to do it. If we do it earlier, we shall also have time to look at other counties which need these ...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I will start my contribution by raising one of the issues in the Report. This was just a general view that the people of Embu County would like this matter to come to a conclusion so that they can also enjoy the fruits of devolution. We know through various ways that the people of Embu County are anxious. They are waiting for a solid CEO whom they know is in charge and who is running the affairs of their county. So, they are looking upon this House to bring this matter to conclusion. I believe that this ...
