    "content": "On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. The Statement that we sought was not restricted to just the question of payment. The HANSARD will bear me out. The main issue was the utilization of the emblem of the Coat of Arms. I want to draw the attention of the House to the fact that the National Flag, Emblems and Names Act, Cap 99 of the Laws of Kenya makes it very clear. Indeed, the Constitution that we passed makes it very clear under Section 9 (2) that these are national emblems that cannot be utilized in the manner in which the Assistant Minister has tabled, in fact, as advertisement for a personal statement. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, there are issues there and, indeed, criminal responsibility under Section 3 of the Act. So, it is not just a question of one issue. I would want the Assistant Minister to look at it and bring a proper Statement before the House. I beg that the Statement be treated with the gravity that it requires. Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir."
