    "content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, I take cognizance of what you have said, but the distinguished Senator for Kisumu requested for a Statement from the Senate Majority Leader. One would expect that whoever purported to speak for him was only open and limited to telling the House when the statement can be forthcoming; not to stand up and purport to justify what was said, on the basis that it was a personal opinion. Everybody has an opinion, but you cannot take your opinion and cover it with the colour of the Senate and go out there and pretend that you are speaking for this Senate on matters of policy and that are so grave as not to be vested in the hands of any single individual. Mr. Speaker, Sir, even if the matter will go into a Kamukunji or closed session, one would expect that you will direct that within that closet, the Senate Majority Leader and those who have been speaking like him - because they are many - to come and explain to the plenary why they purport to speak for the Senate. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
