Parliament has constituted the house business committee, the most crucial committee in parliament.
The 20 member committee saw ODM occupy ten slots as the other 10 were distributed among PNU, ODM Kenya, Kanu and Safina.
ODM Pentagon members led by Prime minister designate Raila Odinga with the exception of nominated MP Joseph Nyagah are represented in the committee and so are Tinderet member Henry Kosgey, Omingo Magara, Prof Anyang Nyong'o, Jakoyo Midiwo and Ali Mohammed Mohamud.
The PNU side has ministers Martha Karua, Moses Wetangula, Prof George Saitoti, Amos Kimunya, Kiraitu Murungi and George Thuo. ODM Kenya has Vice President Kalonzo Musyoka, and Mutula Kilonzo. Uhuru Kenyatta represents Kanu while Safina has also one representative, Wajir west member Adan Keynan.
Leader of government business Kalonzo Musyoka moved the motion that sought to establish the house business committee.
He said the country eagerly awaits the progress by parliament on the negotiated power deal between President Kibaki and Raila Odinga and it is crucial that the house business committee if formed to enable it set the agenda for the house.
The motion was seconded by justice minister Martha Karua who said both teams had consulted widely over representation in the committee.
