    "content": "Order! Hon. Members, I have heard the Attorney-General and subsequently listened to the reaction by hon. Mbadi, hon. Dr. Khalwale, hon. Wetangula, hon. Karua and finally hon. Eng. Rege and I will at this point direct as follows: I will take the Attorney-General by his word that he undertakes to withdraw certain sections of the Statute Law (Miscellaneous Amendments) Bill that he feels have issues to do with constitutionality and that, therefore, they will, for purposes of order No.9, stand tantamount to being withdrawn. I will, therefore, not permit the Attorney- General to move those clauses, as he has particularised, in the Committee Stage of conduct of Business at Order No.9. That will, therefore, be the position and all hon. Members, please, be guided accordingly. Hon. Members, in the circumstances, I had yesterday afternoon indicated that I was going to give directions or, if you like, Communication, with respect to various matters as were raised by the Member for Gwassi; away from matters pertaining to constitutionality or otherwise of the Bill. I propose to make those directions tomorrow afternoon, at 2.30 p.m. So, in those circumstances, I will stand down Order No.9 until I give those directions, which will assist hon. Members to articulate their submissions or contributions to the debate on the Bill. So, I will stand it down until tomorrow at 2.30 p.m."
