"content": "Hon. Cheptumo never even left the Senate. The point I was trying to plead with you to guide us through is Standing Order No.1 (2) which says--- Because what he is saying is not provided for. He says: âI am seniorâ. He is equally senior. He has been around. But if he reads the Standing Orders which this one took over from, that clause is still there. The one he is trying to refer to. Except, it further says that these two committees shall be chaired by the Opposition. There is no Opposition. But now that we are keeping these Committees--- This is fundamental to the implementation of the Constitution. I want to plead with you to use â if you have to pronounce yourself to this â Standing Order No.1 (2). It refers to the traditions and customs. Now that we have kept for self-preservation and for whatever other reasons, PAC and PIC in our Standing Orders as part of our committees, I want to plead with you that we must go the way the traditions and rules call for. You cannot escape from that. It is expressly provided for."
