"content": "Even before we go there, I want to deal with an issue here of procedure. Member for Homa Bay Town, the Chair has seen you walk down the aisle carrying what seems to me to be a bag. I raise to you Standing Order No.101, which says that a lady Member may be allowed into the Chamber with a handbag of reasonable size. The last I checked, Member for Homa Bay Town, you are not a lady unless things have changed. I am also looking at the Speaker’s Rules, Rule 22, which provides that no person, even if otherwise qualified, shall be admitted to the lounge, the dining room or the Speaker’s Gallery and so on, unless he or she is, in the opinion of the Serjeant-at-Arms, properly dressed. This means that if he is a man, he has a coat, collar, tie, long trousers, socks and shoes or service uniform or decent national dress for men and an equivalent standard for women, with hats optional. I do not see how a Member, whom I think is a male, can walk into Chamber carrying a bag of unreasonable size. Can you address yourself to those issues?
