    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I will only say two things about this Petition and conclude by making a general comment as a leader in the Senate. I am in full support of this Petition. Academic qualifications are as important as the dignity with which people carry themselves. The Committee that will be given the responsibility to deal with this Petition should seriously scrutinize the application of Chapter Six of the Constitution in the appointment and election of Speakers of county assemblies and Parliament. As a leader of this House – I will never get tired of saying this – it is the responsibility of every one of us to uphold the dignity of this House by being guided by our own Standing Orders and rules of debate. It is not right that a Senator would wake up from their seat and use derogatory language against their colleagues and be comfortable with it. Secondly, on the time allocated to debate any Motion that comes to the Floor, let the debate flow. Those who get an opportunity to debate will make their contributions The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Director, Hansard and AudioServices, Senate."
