    "content": "On a point of order, Hon. Deputy Speaker. The Leader of the Majority Party has raised a very fundamental question. If the mother Motion that created this particular Select Committee could not be amended then the product cannot be amended. The Speaker himself ruled, unless we overrule him. We are being told that this Committee exceeded its mandate, which is not correct. Thematic Area 4 is very wide. It states as follows:- “Recommendation on legal policy and institutional reforms to improve the electoral system and processes so at to ensure that the August 2017 elections are free and fair and are administered in an impartial, efficient, simple, accurate, verifiable, secure, accountable and transparent manner.” Hon. Deputy Speaker, it is still within the mandate of the Committee to recommend on those areas, including what Hon. Aluoch is amending. The other House has unfortunately passed the Report as it is."
