"content": " Order, Senator! This is a good day because you have raised quite a number of procedural issues. I was of the same opinion like Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale when Sen. Billow rose to ask that the Mover be called upon to reply. That was the expectation because it is a custom and tradition. However, when you closely examine the particular Standing Order that he stood on and when Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale failed to give a counter Standing Order and sought refuge in Standing Orders No.1 - It is actually a qualifier. We will invoke the customs and traditions, in the absence of a provision. I am afraid that this has not been qualified and it is a serious oversight in our Standing Orders. This is because there was a lot of reasoning behind it to avoid a lot of self interest, for example, when a Member has spoken and does not want others to contribute. However, it is not in our books. I will leave it open because there is only Sen. Hassan and Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale who want to contribute. What is your point of order, Sen. (Prof.) Anyang'- Nyong’o?"
