    "content": " Thank you. Hon. Members, we have to move the agenda of the National Assembly. It is a beautiful thing to debate the Division of Revenue Bill but a lot of information has come from the Floor. A lot of it is being repeated. This Bill is still going to the Senate. At the end of the day, it has divided the revenue. You can see there is a lot of business in the Order Paper that we must transact. I know that somebody outside this House has created some pandemonium and panic amongst Members that some Members must always speak or others do not speak. A lot of Members want to say something about anything. I can give you all the time you have but that will be the only Bill you would have transacted in the whole year. So, it is upon you to see how you can maturely manage your time. I hear many of you are saying that somebody somewhere is saying, ‘I do not speak so I must speak.’ That cannot translate into the agenda of this House. You know that speaking or not speaking is not what Article 94 of the Constitution is all about. You know that. Anyway, I have given you that information so that you know the mood of the Speaker, although the mood of the Speaker is not very important in these matters. I have said that so that you know that we really want to step into business. Let us have the Member for Nandi."
