    "content": "Hon. Members, now that the House has adopted the Second Report on Powers and Privileges Committee on alleged breach of privilege and code of conduct by the membership of PAC and made the resolutions as recommended by the Committee including resolutions for the demand for an apology at the Bar and reprimand by the Speaker, I wish to guide the House as follows:- First, all the resolutions of the House will take effect immediately. Two, hon. Ababu Namwamba, hon. Omondi Anyanga, hon. Ahmed Abbas and hon. James Bett, will be required to give apologies to the House at the Bar for making unsubstantiated claims before taking their seats in the House in the next sitting which should be tomorrow morning at 9.30 a.m. Three, the Speaker will also reprimand the four Members at the Bar upon tendering their respective apologies. Four, the hon. Ababu Namwamba, hon. Omondi Anyanga and hon Arama will also be required to give apologies to the House at the Bar for discussing Committee proceedings outside the House. Five, hon. Ababu Namwamba and hon. Omondi Anyanga may choose to combine their two apologies together. Six, save for today’s sitting, none of the Members who have been required to give apologies will be allowed to sit in the House or in its Committees before submitting to the two resolutions. May I take this opportunity to advise the said Members to ensure that their respective apologies are couched in decorum and respectful manner befitting this House. In addition, hon. Ababu Namwamba will take the opportunity to explain himself as you remember a Communication from the Speaker and to also let the House understand what kind of game was going on by forwarding a letter to the Speaker’s Office and then withdrawing it. The Speaker would like an explanation given to the House on the matter of the letter."
