    "content": " Order, Members! I think that this is really much ado about nothing. You do not need to make any references to any school of law. All you needed was to be a Member of the Senate of the 11th Parliament. We got two impeachments from Embu County, ably handled by Sen. Khalwale and his team. Not only did we decide that we were going to get two Committees, because they were not the same persons, but two different persons performing certain functions--- In fact, the Constitution has even ring-fenced some of the things that the Deputy Governor cannot do, which only a Governor can do. So, that already tells you that they are different things. By quoting that article of the Constitution, Sen. Khalwale actually went the opposite direction, when I thought that he would actually support the cause; that since we have a chief and deputy, then each one of them is responsible. From all the words that have been used, check Article 259 (1) which says:- “This Constitution shall be interpreted in a manner that— ( a ) promotes its purposes, values and principles; ( b ) advances the rule of law, and the human rights and fundamental freedoms in the Bill of Rights; ( c ) permits the development of the law; and 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."
