    "content": "Hon. Speaker, I rise under Article 1 of the Constitution. Our Standing Orders are born out of this Constitution. If you listened to the previous speaker, there are real fears that this is not a matter that should go to a vote in this Parliament. It requires your ruling on whether the issues raised in this Bill are constitutional. My point is this: If we are going to vote on a matter that we are very clearit is unconstitutional, it is not fair. Hon. Speaker, Article 1 of the Constitution is very clear that power is shared in this country between the national Government and the county governments. What the previous speaker has just said - and my legal position is very clear on Articles 1 and 220 - this matter cannot be allowed to go to vote. You must rule whether the issues we are discussing are against the Constitution."
