Sen. Muthama I request a statement from the Chairperson of the Standing Committee on Energy, Roads and Transport. The statement relates to roads earmarked for upgrading to bitumen standards during the 2013/2014 Financial Year. In the statement, I would like the Chairperson of the Committee to state how many roads...

Who is the Chairman of the Committee? When do you think we will get a response? The Statement sought goes back quite a lot.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I will endeavour to discuss with the Chair to issue the Statement in three weeks.

Is that okay, Sen.Muthama? Sen. Muthama Yes, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir.

On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir.

On what Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale?

This Statement that Sen. Muthama is seeking was actually the subject in this House last week when we asked about contracts only that we did it in general. We requested for a statement on all the contracts that had been awarded in all the counties. So, I appeal to the...

Was yours on bitumisation or was it on a specific contract?

The Statement on contracts of upgrading these roads to bitumen standards.

Yes, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I want to confirm that we have made a lot of progress on that and if it is agreeable to the House, we could bring them together so that they can be interrogated at the same time.

Sen. Muthama, are you seeking a Statement specific to your county or are you seeking a general Statement? Sen. Muthama Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Statement I sought cuts across counties but more particularly there is a road that connects Kangundo and Machakos. That is directly involved and that is...

Do you have any problem if the two Statements are joined? Sen. Muthama Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I have no problem.

Then it is going to be done as a joint Statement together with Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale’s Statement. The Committee is going to make it into one Statement.

On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir.
