"content": " I can see some requests, but I do not want to protract this issue because we canvassed it at great length yesterday afternoon. However, I do not agree with Sen. Kagwe that Sen. Okong’o is harassing Sen. Dullo. Sen. Okong’o or any other Senator seeking a statement does not look behind the chairperson to know why it is not coming. The correct position is that, in my view and in answering to what Sen. Billow has asked, Article 125 of the Constitution talks about a committee. So, you can express your frustration in the House like Sen. Dullo is doing, or the Committee itself, in its own session, must decide whether or not the moment has arisen for it to use Article 125 of the Constitution. That is a decision only the Committee can make in their session, and not in the House. Thereafter, it can trigger the provisions of the Article 125 of the Constitution which are administrative because you might require the services of the Clerk of the Senate, for you to issue summons. That is an administrative matter. I cannot sit here and The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
