"content": "My brother, Sen. Olekina, is rudely interrupting me. I have just listened to my colleagues. There is no harm in consulting. The only issue I want to share, which is very critical, is that, first, I propose we have another consultative meeting. A breakfast meeting here in the Chamber on Tuesday morning at 8.00 a.m. We will go through the whole process again. Secondly, hon. Senators, all the documents we presented are in our gadgets. I want to request that between now and that Tuesday, please, thoroughly familiarise yourself or request for a printout of the presentation we did. By the time we are coming to engage, you have also thoroughly familiarised yourself with this engagement. The last issue that I want to request is, please, if we are rescheduling our moving of the Motion today to create consultation time, then let us commit to making sure that hon. Senators turn up on time on Tuesday and they stay through until we make sense of what we are discussing. The challenge we have is that we will reschedule and come for Tuesday breakfast meeting, maybe a few people would have turned up for that engagement and then when we come to moving the Motion, people will say we still need to get more engagement time. You must commit to coming on that Tuesday at 8.00 o’clock. You must also have thoroughly familiarised yourself with the report of the committee and what we presented and you must also sit in to the logical conclusion. This is a very critical function of the Senate, for us to get the Fourth Basis of Revenue Sharing formula that is least controversial and generally acceptable to everybody. I am sure we cannot get a formula that is perfect for Mandera County, Narok or Kitui, but we can carry in a less harmful approach in terms of what we are proposing. I beg to support the discussion that has come forth. There is no harm in our brother Sen. Olekina also giving us a one-minute input before you can guide further."
