    "content": "Hon. Members, in fact the point I wanted to address has been addressed by Hon. Wanga. After concluding the first Division on the amendment proposed by Hon. Alice Wahome, having been defeated, what remained was for any other Member to move his or her amendment since the clause was there. Since none of them moved their amendments, the next thing the Chair had to do was to put the global Question for the Clause to be part of the Bill. So, any Member who desired further amendments to it was at liberty at that point and not at any other time; to rise in their places and claim since the clause was still there. They would only have lost their right to move the amendment if the amendment by Hon. Alice had been carried. Now that it remained, any other Member who had amendments was at liberty to rise in their places at that time and claim that they wanted to move their amendments. Hon. Members, please do not forget. I told you that on factual matters, do not say “No” because you think it is fashionable to do so. It is also on record that in the global Question, some Members voted for and others against. The Members who voted against the global Question were 15. You can go and check your records. I told you I was following the proceedings. They were 15. So, check the records to see what happened on that day. Therefore, if you remained around after the first Question had been determined, you would have an opportunity to move your amendments. The time was not over. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
