    "content": "On a point of Order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I am a bit surprised that this matter is on the Order Paper for the Second Reading. You will recall that on Thursday, I moved that this particular Bill be discussed because I knew it would last for a very short time. Indeed, my prophecy proved true as we finished the Second Reading. When it came to the issue of the vote, I stood up to ask that the vote be taken at another time because we did not have a quorum as at that time. By then, the Deputy Speaker, who was on the Chair, ruled that this was not a Bill affecting counties and, therefore, we should just pass it. He then called those for it to say “aye” and those against to say “nay”. We said “aye” and I assumed that we had already passed the Bill. So, I am bit surprised that it has been listed again. If you check the records, you will find that it was finalised on Thursday. I call for your direction on the matter on whether this vote is necessary or whether we have already had it."
