This is what the Constitution expects you to do before you make a decision on any matter. Article 123 (2) of the Constitution states” “When the Senate is to vote on any matter other than a Bill, the Speaker shall rule on whether the matter affects or does not affect counties.” Therefore, you are invited to make a ruling and I want to request that you make the ruling. With those many remarks, I beg to reply. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir."}
