    "content": " Hon. Members, we have ventilated enough on that matter. I now make the following ruling. Hon. Mwadime had rightly proposed an amendment to Clause 29 – an amendment which was forwarded to the relevant Departmental Committee for them to consider whether the proposal has financial implications or not. The Committee submitted a report which agreed with hon. Mwadime that the amendment does not concern money matters. However, considering the text by which the amendment has been done, and in view of the Fourth Schedule to the Constitution, particularly paragraphs 10 and 22; it would seem that the effect of the amendment that hon. Mwadime is desirous of may as well be a matter concerning counties. Therefore, under Articles 94, 95 and 96 and 110, it may require the considerations of both Houses of Parliament. Due to that constitutional aspect, I am not prepared to put the matter to vote. Therefore, I rule that this amendment is inadmissible to the extent that it is unconstitutional. Therefore, I put the Question that Clause 29 as amended by hon. Amine Abdalla be part of the Bill."
