    "content": " On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Is Mr. Okemo in order to confuse this House that this Motion is referring to half of the figures in the Schedule? The figures in the Schedule are in two columns. This amendment does not state which column the amendment is seeking to amend. It basically says everything be divided by a half. It is not clear; we are talking of a quarter. The Schedule talks of the full amount for the full year. There is what we have proposed, but we are not actually coming out with it. Mr. Speaker, Sir, besides, I think, unless we are looking at a different calendar year, a year is 12 months. Thus a quarter year is three months. What we are hearing is that the amended Motion is to give money for four months. Now, four months is not a quarter of a year. Four months out of 12 months is one-third. So, I think we are comparing apples with oranges. I would like to ask hon. Members to first of all reconcile what they want to do before we can even debate this Motion."
