    "content": " We have an answer. Sen. (Prof.) Lonyangapuo, the circular is dated 27th November, 2013. It is a public document and that is the point I was trying to make. Now that everybody knows - everybody is assumed or presumed to know the law - it is now up to the affected MCAs to follow up. If they need the assistance of the relevant Committee of the Senate, they will make a specific request to the Committee. The Committee will then follow-up with the Commission on Revenue Allocation (CRA) and determine how to go on with the matter. It is not in the place of the Senate to order. A Statement has been issued and it is up to the affected parties to follow it up. It is good that the information has come out because it will help many nominated MCAs who have not benefited from their mileage claims. The Senate cannot decree and make an order to that effect, when there is no Motion before it. At least a statement has been delivered and tabled. We can only deliberate on it for what it is worth. If you want to bring a Motion, it has to be specific to those assemblies that have not complied with the circular of 27th November, 2013."
