Hon. Baya, I cannot see the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Labour in the House. Would you take charge of this? I hope you got the request for statement.

I will inform him. I think he is currently appearing before the Liaison Committee. Once he is done, I will ensure he gets the request for statement.

How long will this take?

Give us two weeks, specifically after the recess.

Is it possible to get an answer during the first week after we resume from recess?

Yes. Much obliged.

Hon. Peter, you will take it up with him so that it is addressed at the right time.

Thank you. Before you answer, Hon. Jack Wamboka, just go to the Bar and come back. You should not repeat that. Hon. Jack Wamboka, you are out of order. This House shall have decorum.

Thank you.

Hon. Members, I have two Questions to the Independent Offices and Commissions. The first one is by Hon. Baya, the Member for Kilifi North. Do you have a Question to the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) ? It is in the Order Paper.

Hon. Temporary Speaker, I rise to ask Question 004 of 2025 to the Teachers Service Commission.

Thank you. That is a very weighty issue that has been raised by the Member for Kitui County.
