"content": "Madam Deputy Speaker, my point of order relates to decorum in the House. Our Standing Orders are very clear. The distinguished Senator for Nandi County was raising something very important, but in a very chaotic manner. Madam Deputy Speaker, when the Speaker is speaking, the House is obligated by Standing Orders to remain silent. It cannot be business as usual that the Speaker is talking and a Member is shouting, another Member is on his feet and the whole situation does not conform to the Standing Orders. Secondly, Madam Deputy Speaker, I want to encourage you to enforce the rules of information. Information can only be given to a Member on the Floor with the consent of that Member. You cannot come up to give information to a Member who has finished and sat down. In fact, when you seek for information to a Member, the Speaker will always ask the Member on the Floor: “Do you want information and do you accept that information?” That is when information is given. We want this House, as a House of wise people, to be also a House of order. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
