    "content": "On a point of order Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. Before the Leader of Majority resumes his seat, I wanted to raise a question about a comment he made and your advice on whether it is in order. The Leader of Majority has spoken with a lot of passion. He reminds me of how passionate the Biblical Saul was before he saw the light on the road to Damascus. I do pray the same vigor will be maintained. However Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, the Majority Leader has indicated that the job of this House is to oversight counties which is our sole duty. Is he in order to indicate that our job is to focus on counties only when the Constitution under Article 94 defines the broad role of Parliament of which this Senate has membership; which says Parliament manifests the diversity of the nation, represents the will of the people, exercises their sovereignty, defends and protects its Constitution; is it in order to narrow and limit the oversight role of this House to counties alone when we are part of the institution called Parliament?"
