"content": "Hon. Speaker, I am told that some of the Senators we were with in the Tenth Parliament went to Naivasha and watered down the powers of the Senate. They created a Senate that does not exist anywhere in the world and they are now regretting why they did that. Therefore, if you are here, please, do not destroy an institution and regret later that you destroyed your own institution. Hon. Speaker, my plea to you and to that Commission is: Do not destroy an institution and regret later. Much as I appreciated and supported almost 99 per cent of your ruling; I was just worried that you were really probably suspending a provision of the Standing Orders. I was even wondering that you may tell us tomorrow that you have decided under Standing Order 1 that we will not be sitting on Thursdays. Thank you, hon. Speaker."
