    "content": " Order, Members; the Senate Minority Leader, in particular. This is a fairly straightforward matter. You will appreciate that yesterday there were so many interventions that we could not proceed on a lot of business. Many issues were raised which I think required the intervention of the substantive Chair and they have been brought to my attention. Under those circumstances, whatever was supposed to be determined under Order No.8 would still affect Order No.9. So, there is no point of going through another Motion. So, we are considering a response. When it will be ready, we will make it and we will proceed. I want the Senator for Mombasa to be assured that even on the Floor of this House, individual Senators have requested for statements or Bills to come on a particular time. So, it is not that if you do not see it appear, it should automatically be on the Order Paper the following day. You have witnessed it and Standing Order No.39 allows the Speaker to rearrange the Order Paper for the convenience of the House. All those avenues are available. However, on this one, it is just because it raised a lot of issues. It is only fair for good order that they are disposed of first before we proceed. I appreciate the enthusiasm of the leadership, in particular, the Senate Minority Leader in ensuring that the Presidential Memorandum is dispensed with quickly. I am told that that Motion is ably seconded by the Secretary-General of the other coalition."
