    "content": "Hon. Members, the second Communication is that you will recall that the Chairman of the Parliamentary Select Committee on the decline of the Kenya shilling against foreign currencies commenced moving the Motion on the above Report on Thursday, 1st March, 2012. However, the Member for Rangwe, Mr. Martin Ogindo, rose on a point of order claiming that copies of the Report circulated to the Members were not signed and that the annexes were missing. He, therefore, sought guidance from the Chair on how to proceed as the Report was incomplete. The claim was further spoken to by two other Members. The Chair directed that further debate on the Motion be deferred and that the Motion be listed on the Order Paper at the earliest opportunity after circulation of the Report as tabled in the House. Hon. Members, I have perused the Report that was tabled in the House on 14th February 2012 and confirm that it is the same Report as I approved. Pursuant to Standing Order No.181 (3), a Report of a Select Committee together with the minutes of the proceedings of the Committee and with such note or record of any evidence by the Committee as the Committee may deem fit shall be laid on the table of the House by the chairperson of the select committee or by some other Member authorized by the committee on its behalf within 14 sitting days of the conclusion of its proceedings. These minutes are appended as annexure (i). The list of annexes which are 18 in number are on page six of the Report and are intact. I have, however, ascertained that some copies given to the Members contained only the main Report but not the annexes. The claim that some annexes had been removed is, in view of the foregoing, not accurate. Copies have now been made of the Report in its original form together with all the annexes as tabled in the House. Thank you. Hon. Members, the effect of that communication is, therefore, that business at Order No.11 will proceed when we get there. Those who do not have the Report may make efforts to obtain copies thereof which are readily available both within the Chamber and in Room No.8. Next order!"
