    "content": " Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, one cannot say that we are supporting others and leaving others for purposes of inclusivity. That is a very vague reason. When a Motion or Bill comes to the House, we look at its merits and demerits. There is a difference between Hon. Gitonga’s amendment and Hon. Baya’s amendment, and this clarity needs to come out. The product of Hon. Baya is already scheduled. That is one thing that we need to know. It is already scheduled. It is only that he is trying to move it from one category to an upper category for purposes of prioritisation and maybe to rejuvenate the economy of the Coast region, unlike Hon. Gitonga’s which has not been scheduled. So, the two are totally different. Secondly, we need your direction on Hon. Baya’s amendment because under Hon. Gitonga’s amendment, we have rejected the Bixa Orellana . However, Hon. Baya’s amendment also includes the same and, in fact, when he was moving, he only gave a justification of the coconut and cashew nut. He did not justify the scheduling of Bixa Orellana, which had been rejected earlier. So, what happens in this case? Does it mean that we amend by rejecting the Bixa Orellana and then we move forward with coconut and cashew nuts? How do we go about this? I seek your direction."
