    "content": "On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. It is important that whereas Sen. Muthama and Sen. (Prof.) Anyang'-Nyong'o have alluded to the previous Parliaments where you largely had the Government and Opposition sides, but in this new dispensation, the real importance of an Executive in parliamentary business is not as important as it was then. If you realised the issues that Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. and I raised, they have very little to do with the national Executive but everything to do with the relationship between the National Assembly and the Senate. We need to crack the relationship between this House and the other House so that if we get ourselves into blaming the Government side or the Executive – we have Bills - Three of them are private Members Bills. Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale has sponsored Bills. We are talking about Private Members Bills that have not been processed in the National Assembly. The problem of the Executive is at a different tier. The major problem that we have in terms of transacting business in this House is the relationship between the National Assembly and the Senate. If we decide to convolute the problem and bring in the national Executive, we will lose sight of the real problem. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate"
