    "content": "Very well. Hon. Members, I hope even as you do your constituency work, when you desire to be out of the House, you have to study carefully Article 103 of the Constitution because it talks of you being absent for eight sittings in a Session. A Session is 12 months. So, if you desire that you just sneak into the constituency, some people who could be hawk-eyed may be counting. You need a written permission of the Hon. Speaker and failing to offer a satisfactory permission to the relevant Committee again as chaired by the Speaker, the Powers and Privileges Committee could have some far-reaching consequences. I do not like a situation whereby a Member’s term is cut short midstream. Remember in the 11th Parliament, we had some constituents from two constituencies who were hawk-eyed. It is only that the Members had offered a reasonable explanation. Otherwise, they would have vacated their seats in the House. However, with regard to the Hon. Otiende Amollo, Hon John Mbadi is available. Hon. Members, I have one short Communication to make."
