    "content": "Hon. Speaker, I know that this is a matter that is of national concern. I have been trying to look at the Constitution and the Standing Orders. I know that we are all good law-makers. However, I am at a loss to understand how a matter of national importance can find its way in the Senate, so that it becomes a matter that concerns counties, in which Cabinet Secretaries are then invited to appear to give information purportedly invoking Article 125(1) of the Constitution. For avoidance of doubt, I would like to read Article 125(1). It states thus:- “Either House of Parliament, and any of its committees, has powers to summon any person to appear before it for the purpose of giving evidence or providing information”."
