"content": "Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale, you do not play with the Chair. Hon. Senators, there is a serious concern that has been raised by all Members that we spend more than four hours on Statements, sometimes arguing over small issues when Bills have been pending since September or October last year. If you see me moving that fast, it is because of that concern. The Rules and Business Committee (RBC) decided today that we should be spending an hour on Statements so that we can be able to proceed to prosecute the Bills. If you look at the Order Paper, you will realize that there are Bills like The Mining Bill (National Assembly Bill No.8 of 2014) which is being awaited by the National Assembly for the final approval. We should actually, going forward, take more seriously matters of Bills, and designate specific time for Statements. Once someone has answered something, we should move forward. If I am sounding a little bit harsh today, it is because Sen. (Prof.) Anyang’-Nyong’o has pushed me to the wall. Next Order!"
