    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, under Standing Order No. 1 and 105, I have heard my sister, Secretary General (SG) Emeritus, Sen. Veronica Maina, saying that Parliament has the power. If I did not get it correct, she can correct me. She said that Parliament has the power to invalidate contracts under the Independent Power Producers (IPPs) Agreement. My only concern is; is it in order to tell the public that Parliament has power to review, cancel or terminate contracts, yet as a senior lawyer or advocate, she should know that is the preserve of the courts of law? Maybe I did not get that correct, but I am willing to be guided. Is it in order to mislead the public that Parliament can invalidate, cancel, review or terminate contracts of any nature outside IPPs Agreement? 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."
