    "content": "(Sen. (Prof.) Kindiki): Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I stand to applaud the direction you have given as a way of clarification. We are setting precedence on these things. First of all, as I have said, I am happy with the position that has been communicated by the Chair. Secondly, just for clarification, my own thinking, the issue of designation is an administration whereby the person designating the voting right communicates to the Speaker. Once the Speaker is satisfied that the designation has been done, then the Clerk has no business calling the head of delegation and ascertaining whether whoever is voting has actually been designated. This is an administrative issue which is strictly between the person designating that right and the Chair who is the Speaker in this case. I just needed that clarification because if we do not set good precedence, we will not have clarity on this matter."
