    "content": "I know this is a technical area. It requires a lot of consideration. This is because the Senate was suggesting something different. They were talking about a Director of Veterinary Services. So, the Committee is suggesting an amendment to now provide for the Attorney-General or his representative. That is a substantive amendment. I also need to point out that Paragraph (b) of the proposed amendments by the Committee is not really a matter for the House to express itself on. This is a matter that can be done by the staff. That is because numbering and renumbering are very mundane matters. They can be dealt with when you are cleaning up the Bill before presentation for assent. That is not very crucial. However, (a) is a crucial one. Hon. Members, it is important that we are also alive to Standing Order No. 149 about the import of amending Senate’s proposals. If you successfully amend the Senate’s amendment, the net effect is to refer the matter to mediation. I hope the Committee and the House is alive to that fact. What we can do for the time being is to allow Hon. Wamalwa, because I cut him short, to finish his contribution relating to the amendment and then we can address the other issues. Hon. Wamalwa, proceed."
