"content": "Hon. Members, as we go to the tail end of the 12th Parliament, there may be people who, as it happens 70 per cent do not come back. If you do not come back, it will be useful to the country. Remember we have the Center for Parliamentary Studies and Training (CPST). Those who have been here and took time to understand the process of Parliament become very useful partners at that training institute because we need to also train the new ones who would have replaced you and those in the county assemblies. However, if you never learnt anything, it will become difficult. You will still be coming to the ones who will be here and it is not right. I have just wondered. We put the Question for the Mover to reply because Hon. Junet raised a possibility that we could be losing Quorum. Then as the mover is replying others are moving out. Surely, it also speaks volumes about understanding. I will ask the Clerk, because this is a very serious business, it may appear to me that we quorate. Can I get from the Sergeant-at-Arms the exact number, so that when I put the Question and we approve these names? Nobody then goes to challenge the decision of the House on grounds of Quorum. Quickly give me the number of Members around. Very well, Hon. Members, at least, the Clerkâs office and Sergeant-at-Arms have confirmed that there is in the House a total of 58 Members. Therefore, we quorate. It is okay now for me to put the Question."
