    "content": " Well, I do not know whether there is any more guidance. I cannot give you more than what is already in the book because if any person fails to comply with the request from a Committee of this House, then your recourse is to the Standing Orders and to Article 125 of the Constitution. Article 125 of the Constitution gives you the power of the High Court and it gives you the power to enforce attendance of witnesses or to compel the production of documents and so many other things. So, if your Committee is satisfied that something is not going right, then it is up to your Committee to invoke the provisions of Article 125 of the Constitution. That is the only guidance I can give you because if issues take too long to be sorted out and you are not able to communicate, then the House suffers and it expects answers from you. I am happy that you have indicated your constraints in the issue, but my view would be that you take advantage of Article 125 of the Constitution and compel attendance. Sen. Murungi, you have a point of order on this issue?"
