    "content": " On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I think you need to take us back to the rail. I think we could be running outside the rail and maybe making laws that will give us problems because this is Statute Law (Miscellaneous Amendments) Bill. I remember sometime I asked if what we had passed earlier, which was Section 5, had been made to be part of the Bill. At that time, I was told that we will run through all the provisions affecting the Registration of Persons Act and then we will make it part of the Bill. Now, here we are. We have just done Section 16 and we are making it part of the Bill. Why is it that in some instances we are not making it part of the Bill when in some others we are doing so? I had valid reasons for asking this question. It is because that would inform the way we would vote when it is made part of Bill in respect of Section 5. The way it is, it is so convoluted that I think the best way would be to recommit provisions dealing with the Registration of Persons Act. We should recommit the whole thing and look at the HANSARD and see what we have done and what we have not done. The Clerks can help us by reading out what is in the HANSARD and what we have taken a vote on and what we have not taken a vote on. The Leader of the Majority Party is very right, in my view. This is my personal view. To be able to do census, a section like 9A is very important, but as the Member for Homa Bay said, we do not know whether we voted for it or not. I think we need assistance on the provisions dealing with the Registration of Persons Act."
