It is a very serious matter. A Member has several roles to play; it is a fact that this Motion was approved by the RBC. The question is: If you are a Member of the RBC and you did not raise objections at that particular time, are you entitled to raise objections on the Floor of the House? Ordinarily, no, but I do not see anything legally binding or otherwise, to prevent a Member on the Floor of the House as the Member for a county or representing a particular county to change his or her position. They say that it is only fools who do not change their minds. The only argument you can have against a Member is maybe an ethical argument that maybe he voted for it, but in some of these decisions, we do not vote. So you have nothing holding a Member. Proceed, Sen. (Prof.) Lonyangapuo."}
