Senators, ladies and gentlemen, on behalf of the Senate, I welcome the National Assembly and its team, His Excellency Rigathi Gachagua, EGH, the Deputy President of the Republic of Kenya and his team, members of the public and the media to the Senate and to these proceedings. As you are aware, Article 118 of the Constitution mandates Parliament to conduct its business in an open manner; and that its sittings and those of its committees shall be open to the public. The hearing of the proposed removal from office of the Deputy President pursuant to Article 145 of the Constitution, Standing Order No.78 and the Second Schedule to the Standing Orders of the Senate is a matter that has generated immense public interest. The Senate, in this particular hearing, has facilitated members of the public who are interested in the proceedings to access its galleries. However, I draw the attention of the members of the public who are seated in the galleries to Rule 28 of the Speaker's Rules, which state as follows: 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."
