    "content": "assemblies. It is not right, in my view, for a Committee of this House, or a Member of this House, or anybody associated with this House, to attempt to micro-manage the management of county assemblies. The on-goings in the assemblies between the assemblers and their speakers is not the business of this House or its Committees. I want a direction from the Chair. The Speaker of the National Assembly of Kenya is not protected by any law. The Speaker of the Senate of Kenya is also not protected by any law. Further, the speakers of the assemblies of the 47 counties are not protected by any law. Under what law is the Committee purporting to engage in assembly activities in matters of either arguments, or disputes or both, between the speakers of the assemblies and their members? This amounts to interference of the proceedings of those assemblies which is prohibited by our own Standing Orders. This micro-managing and the big brother syndrome should not be encouraged. The protection and conduct of any speaker of the House, including yourself, is entirely dependent on your chemistry with the House and how you manage the affairs of the House. That remains the law."
