On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. There is a statement that has been long overdue. I requested this statement last month with regard to the status of IDPs in Nyandarua County. A promise to deliver this statement has been given week after week. The last promise was that this statement would be given today by the Chairperson of the Committee on National Security and Foreign Relations. I can see the substantive chairperson is in the House.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I requested for a Statement from the Chairman of the Committee on National Security and Foreign Relations regarding the status of the Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) in Nyandarua County. That was on 27th February. It was postponed to either Tuesday or Wednesday which is this week. We are now at the end of the week, and the Statement has not been given.
