    "content": " On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. We are getting a log jam. We have three Motions before the House. Even Mr. Kiunjuri has not moved a Motion amending any Motion. Now, if we continue on that road, then we are trying to create what in the United States of America is called \"filibuster\", but it should be on a substantive Motion before the House. The main Motion before the House is the one that was moved by the Leader of Government Business. There is an amendment to that Motion. The practice is that a Motion of that nature should be dealt with expeditiously, so that Parliament can get on with the Business that is before it. If the original Motion is not acceptable to the House, then we can move forward. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I do not think the amendment Motion is a matter which should be adjourned until tomorrow. We can move a vote on the Motion of the amendment and then move a Motion to adjourn the substantive Motion. So, I think we are moving ourselves into a log jam. In my history in this House, I have never seen Business being conducted in such a fashion."
