    "content": "Yes, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I request most respectfully, that you withhold the introduction because that does not amount to an introduction. It can only be an introduction after you have said who it is that you are introducing. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, there are two aspects about that pronouncement from the Chair. Indeed, the first one is that it goes to the record of this House that the school was here. This is a momentous occasion for these children who are present in the Public Gallery. When they come back here as Senators, 20 years from now, the HANSARD will show that such and such primary school was here. Secondly, the children might be given a question to write a composition about their trip to Nairobi or Parliament. They ought to write in exactly the same mirror image as the other children do when it comes to a visit to this House. Finally, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, your pronouncement is an accounting document. The accounting officer who spent money on these children could want a proof that they came to Nairobi. The HANSARD record will show that they visited Parliament. Therefore, any money spent by the school or even the parents who paid for the trip, will be properly accounted for."
