    "content": " Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I will speak from here. I request that the commentary from the Speaker‟s Chair on the last point that you made of creation of jurisprudence that may guide us especially on making a determination whether a matter concerns counties or not, not to be made obiter dictum. I want to find a mechanism for generating a request from the Chair so that if the point arises again, the excuse will not be given that it was obiter dictum and therefore not binding. Without generation of such a request, somebody can also come with the argument that the decision was made per incuriam. I see the significance of what you are saying. However, we need to make your decision a lasting one. Therefore, would I be in order, from the position I am speaking from, to ask that the Senate Minority Whip is allowed to raise, at an appropriate time, a request like the one he made? The Chair always has an ear and an eye on what is happening in the Chamber and what he does not hear or see is nullity and of no consequence. Therefore, without saying much, what you have just said is so significant that there should be a proper request for a decision or statement to be made by the Chair."
