    "content": "Hon. Members, I do not want to say what happens in other places. In this House, when a petition is presented, it does not present an opportunity for debate at this point until a report is tabled. We follow the procedures as laid down. I am aware that there are proposals to make some amendments but even then, it is not with regard to debate at this point. If a report makes certain recommendations, it will then carry what would be termed as a resolution of the House. That is the direction that those who are proposing some changes to the Standing Orders are moving towards. At this point, I can see there is a lot of interest but I am sorry. Remember at this point, you are only supposed to make comments and seek clarifications for a period of only 30 minutes. But even that is at my pleasure. My pleasure is such that we move to the next Order. Therefore, I refer the Petition to the Departmental Committee on Environment and Natural Resources. Does the Chair also want to seek clarification? Let us have Hon. Kareke Mbiuki."
