    "content": "Hon. Speaker, I want a communication whether it is at the Committee stage or on the plenary that this House must run through decorum. That you cannot shout from where you sit. You can shout in a funeral! You can go on Friday, Saturday and Sunday and shout in a funeral or a political rally. You can shout in your house; close the doors, shout and you can even walk naked in your house, but the moment you enter that door, you are an hon. Member of the august House. I remember you issuing a similar communication, but I want you to issue a firm one, that electronic system in this House gives you the power to say “yes, through the button or to say “no”. The Standing Orders are very clear that even when you stand and say a point of order, you must cite the Standing Order. There are so many Standing Orders that have no legs or tail. They are not based on rational thinking. Let us not turn this House into a fish, goats or camel market. For us who come from the pastoral region, we are proud to be told that we are turning this House into a camel market. If you get irritated by me mentioning the word “fish”, I ate fish last night as my dinner. So, it is not your preserve! You can get irritated, we will keep on eating fish and we will keep on using the words, “fish market” because it is in the dictionary and in the English Language. So, relax in your seat. Hon. Speaker, please give a communication to make sure that this House follows the Standing Orders."
