    "content": "the National Assembly. One thing that is outstanding in our Standing Orders is that we cannot anticipate debate. In the same vein, we cannot anticipate the outcome of a debate. What pains some of us and deeply so, is that every time there is a conflict, either real or imagined between what the National Assembly should do and what we should, we are always invited to give way to the National Assembly. In this Senate, we are deliberate to restore the lost glory of the Senate of the Republic of Kenya. There is nothing that would have gone wrong if we had concurrent Motions. If the outcomes are different from the two Houses, the procedures are clear on how to cure them. We should never run away from our own issues. Representatives of the Parliamentary Service Commission from the Senate are supposed to fight for the interest of the Senate first before they consider the general Parliament. I know that you have consulted the Senate Majority Whip and the Senate Minority Leader, which we respect. I urge fellow Senators to debate whatever Motion comes to the Floor. Once we get an outcome of that debate, we will deal with the consequences without reference to the National Assembly."
