"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I think the point of order that my good friend, Otiende Amollo, has raised makes a lot of sense. When it comes to appointment to an office, you are appointed as an individual; you cannot be appointed collectively. The fact that I do not qualify does not make Hon. Otiende Amollo to also fail to qualify. So, when it comes to voting on the names, it would be important to vote for them one by one. This is something that needs to be looked at in future. How do we prepare the Motion? Are we going to have eight different Motions to vote on or we vote on the names one by one? I remember the Speaker had made some ruling when we wanted to make some appointment to the Parliamentary Service Commission (PSC). He was very clear that when it comes to those appointments, we vote one by one. So, I would agree that to approve these people to IPOA, we need to vote on their names, one by one."
