    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise on Standing Order No.38, to move that the Senate suspends its proceedings for 15 minutes in order for us to familiarise ourselves with the details of this very important Report, that is going to cause an election of MPs to EALA. It is so important that we be informed because we do not know some of the members. We will be voting for members who belong to different parties. Therefore, we need a bit of time understand. I am not saying that the Office of the Clerk has failed in anything. I have consulted them and he has assured me that the report is being processed. Since the report was only tabled a few minutes ago, give us 15 minutes to read it. Having been an Assistant Minister for the East African Community under the late President Mwai Kibaki, I happen to know the importance of this Assembly. Therefore, we must do a good job. Otherwise, Members will end up voting for members from their communities or political parties and leave out a very good man who can add value, the way Sen. (Prof.) Tom Ojienda SC has stated because he is a Professor of Law. We want our institution to be enriched in that balance."
