    "content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, first, my apologies to Sen. Wambua. I hardly ever interrupt Members when they are making their submission, unless I feel that it is very necessary. However, there are various necessary things he said which I felt if they are left on record, then it will give a very bad impression. One, as a Senate Majority Leader and Leader of Government Business, I do not originate Bills. I move Bills on behalf of the Government, so to speak. These Bills have actually undergone great work at Committee level. By the way, if you take time to read the report of the Committee, they are already proposing quite a number of the amendments that Members are speaking to, including the ones by Sen. Mungatana. You are right to point them out but, please, also refer to the report of the Committee. Lastly, Sen. Wambua, in 2016, we tried that route. I cannot remember the exact time but the secretariat will remember."
