Sen. Kajwang, you know you are seconding the Motion. Though you made a disclaimer that you are doing so because the intended Seconder was unavailable at the time, since you will not have another opportunity to contribute, you are also making your comments and contributions as the Senator for Homa Bay County. I will give you a little more time for that. As you second the Motion and raise your concerns, know that you are seconding the Motion. So, you need to have some balance, knowing that you are the seconder and raising some of the concerns so that it ...

Hon.Senator, it appears that we might need some of those solar powered panels to support the Senate with power.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, pursuant to Standing Order No. 45 (2) (b) I seek a Statement from the Chairperson of the Standing Committee on Health on the declining state of health services in Nandi County.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I appreciate that a number of the issues that I am seeking in the Statement might require about two weeks as the chairperson has requested. However, there is one that is urgent. My last request is about my county. The people of my county have not received health services for the last three weeks. I am sure the Committee on Health can mediate between now and Tuesday next week. It is a matter of mediating between the Nandi County Government and the Union of Nurses. That might not require two weeks. The electronic version of the Senate ...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to thank you for the direction you have given. On several occasions, when a committee of this House is requested to avail a statement to this House within the shortest time possible, like in this case, it has been useful when the Chair gave directions that, that Committee is given the necessary facilitation and support. Would I be in order to request that you actually direct that the Committee is facilitated and given priority in terms of facilitation, to ensure that they are able to meet that deadline?

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to join you and my colleagues in congratulating the committees from the two county assemblies that are visiting the Senate, particularly, Vihiga County which neighbours my county. I want to congratulate them for being the first and the second in terms of the various county assemblies committees. I want to encourage Sen. Orengo and his team that they need to spend more time with the ones who are at the tail-end than with the ones which are first and the second. I think that Nos.47, 46 and 45 need more help more than this team. ...
