    "content": " Hon. Deputy Speaker, I beg to move the following Procedural Motion: THAT, this House orders that the business appearing as Order No.12 in the Order Paper be exempted from the provisions of Standing Order No.40(3) being a Wednesday morning, a day allocated for business not sponsored by the Majority or Minority Party, or business sponsored by a Committee. Hon. Deputy Speaker, the House Business Committee (HBC) met last night. If the House agrees with us based on our calendar, we will go for a short recess for 10 days. We felt that Order No.12, which is a Special Motion on the mandate of the National Assembly within the bicameral setup of Parliament, is important. We must deal with it today in the morning, so that we can go home and ponder and allow the Senate to listen to our side of the story because they discussed a similar Motion. They gave their side of the story to the people of Kenya. So, we will have an opportunity this morning to give our side of the story based on facts and evidence. We felt that we exempt the morning sitting from the Private Members’ business. It is a decision of the HBC. I ask Members to agree with us. I ask the Deputy Leader of the Minority Party who was in the HBC to second. Hon. Junet and many other Members were there."
