"content": "(Sen. (Prof.) Kamar): Senator, if you look at your Standing Orders on Motions of Adjournment, once a Motion of Adjournment has been pronounced, it is not debated on again. People started using the points of order to contribute, and Sen. (Dr.) Mwaura is right to say that to some extent, people have misused the points of order. That is why I was insisting that we need to start drawing reference to the Standing Order when we are doing that. Adjournment means that the Motion is coming back and we wanted to move and make reconciliations that we want to do. If you want to contribute using a point of order, then it is disorderly, just the way the other Member has raised. I would like to persuade you that because the Motion has been stood down by an adjournment, we will go and come back to discuss the same. As I am telling you that, I had five Members who were on points of order when you came in and we have not given any of them an opportunity to speak. Let us agree that we have adjourned. Hon. Senators, I want to inform you that consultations will be held within this week and the communication I have received is that we will pass the same on Tuesday. So, please, check your pigeon holes, WhatsApp and emails to get information on where the consultations will take place. Nonetheless, we will do consultations within the week, and next week, on Tuesday, we will vote on the same. This is good for us so that the country knows that we have ruled on when that is going to take place. Thank you, Senators. Hon. Senators, that being the case, I would, therefore, like to defer Order No.12, which was the Motion brought in by Sen. Sakaja. This is because it relates to the same negotiations and consultations that will take place within the week. Next Order!"
