Yes, hon. Chairlady, it is still on the same. After the passage of our Constitution in 2010, all of us, including those with disabilities, have rights. So, I support what Mheshimiwa has proposed, especially for public institutions like the Kenyatta National Hospital (KNH) and a large bank like KCB. Maybe, we can only require those institutions to employ one interpreter per branch so that it will be easy for our brethren with disabilities to access their services. Currently, most of them are suffering and they have to go through a lot of difficulties in getting services in those institutions. So, ...

Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to oppose the adjournment of this Motion. I believe that when hon. Ken Obura came with the Motion, there was a reason to it. There have been some allegations outside there that the causes of the deaths of prominent people might have been caused by some people or other means. I suggest that we continue so that we can know the truth on what killed them.

Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I rise to support this amendment by the Chairlady of the Committee because this will assist to plan every five years. It will help counties monitor our forests. If this Bill was here before we would have dealt with those unscrupulous people who deplete our forests. So, this plan will assist and help us evaluate the status of our forest cover every five years.

Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I think what the Committee Members are doing is good; already, Clause 20 was deleted as proposed by the Chairperson. If we bring in the amendment by hon. Murgor--- Already the Council is not there because it was deleted through Clause 20. So, I oppose and believe the Committee Members should agree. If they are in consensus then it will mean we might have to go back to Clause 20.

Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support the nomination of Dr. Nzomo as the CEO of TSC. For a long time, over two years, TSC has stayed without a substantive CEO and this is the right time. It is actually overdue. This appointment should have come earlier than today, but it is better late than never. When it comes to qualifications, Dr. Nzomo is qualified because she has a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Education, Masters in Counselling Psychology and PhD in Psychology and Education. When it comes to qualification, she is actually qualified. Her experience is ...

Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I thought you have given me another constituency. I support the New Clause 13A. All salaries and allowances have been standardized and it is the Salaries and Remuneration Commission that does that. It is good to give this work to the Salaries and Remuneration Commission instead of the boards setting their own allowances. I, therefore, support this Bill

Hon. Chairlady, I support the amendments proposed by the Chair of the Committee, especially where it indicates that instead of just protection of witness, we include rights and responsibilities so that, at least, the rights of victim or the suspects and the responsibility of the officers are taken care of. I support and thank you.

Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. The Chairman has said that when they get funds they will complete these roads. There are several roads within Upper Hill that have been constructed in the last three years. It is very painful to go to that place to visit offices. These roads have taken very long to complete.

There is another road in Elgeyo Marakwet County which is between Iten and Bugal. When will the Government release funds because it is embarrassing to see these roads taking too long? This is the case, yet some are less than five kilometers long.
