    "content": "On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. In this House, like in any other House, nothing is cast in stone. In the melee of the debate yesterday, you directed the Member to substantiate. Sen. Orengo and I drew the attention of the Chair to the fact that we are going to look at the HANSARD to see and appreciate exactly what the Senator said. Indeed, as the Chair, the proceedings and the rulings of this House and the presiding over proceedings by the Chair is dynamic. Mr. Speaker, Sir, if you read a book by the former Clerk of Parliament, Mr. Patrick Gichohi, he says:- “The Speaker has the right to change and alter or vary any ruling upon being shown evidence that the ruling may have been done without appreciating the facts placed before the House.” I stand here to argue the case for Sen. (Dr.) Kabaka when you will give me time after he has finished. We cannot just be in a straight jacket and in a closet and say that 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."
