    "content": "Mr. Temporary Chairperson, Sir, I want to support that amendment and also would like to confirm that a copy of the letter communicating the decision of the County Assembly of Laikipia to the Senate was availed to me and, therefore, I attest to the factuality of the same. For two weeks or so, I was out of the country. I do not know whether that letter, when it came, was treated in accordance with the provisions of these Standing Orders. The Standing Orders provide that that was a message and, therefore, being a message, it should have been formally tabled and announced by the Speaker to this House. If it was not done, it was an oversight because it is making it difficult for the Senator for Laikipia to convince the House. I would like to state what I got in my capacity and what he has communicated. But if that oversight was there, then I want to urge the office of the Clerk that they should have followed the rules as provided for in the Standing Orders, that that was a Message from the County Assembly; having reached the office of the Speaker, it should have been communicated to this House during plenary. I support."
