"content": " It is not a must for me to sit here to listen to this House's proceedings. Just to confirm, I was listening to the proceedings of this House. Hon. TJ Kajwang' indicated he would bring amendments to these Bills. That was said yesterday afternoon. Even as these Bills have been brought for debate this morning, the Standing Orders are clear that Members should be given time to move amendments to Bills. What are we doing to this House and our Standing Orders? We are being unfair to Private Members Bills. Today is Wednesday, and we should be discussing Private Members Bills. I have a Bill in the queue and have not been allocated time to prosecute it. The only time we have for Private Members’ business - Wednesday morning - is being used on Bills being rushed through. We need to be serious. That is why we have bilateral agreements that do not add any value to the country. We continue supporting such bilateral agreement without proper scrutiny because Members keep shouting, \"Put the Question! \" The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
