    "content": " On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. My point of order is in relation to the House. Whenever any hon. Member is under investigation, it undermines the authority of the whole House. So, it is wrong for names to be mentioned and there ends the matter. We cannot have a country in which the names of more than six hon. Members are mentioned and we do not know when the investigations will be concluded. Since this relates to the authority of the House, and I am just being a friend of the House – forget that I am an hon. Member of the Government. In other jurisdictions, you take it upon yourself to make sure that the commitments that are made about investigations relating to hon. Members are done as quickly as possible, because if I am found now moving with, for example, Mr. Wamalwa, I am guilty by association. If I am found moving with Mr. Kabogo, I will be guilty by association. I think let us have some timelines and a time frame. I am just being a friend of the House because the matter is now with the Speaker rather than with the Executive."
