"content": "On the first issue, it is public notoriety that ordinarily, a question of constitutionality or otherwise of any Bill before the House, should be resolved before it is introduced for consideration by the House. Indeed, the Standing Orders do not contain an explicit provision upon which a Member may rise on a point of order to raise a question of this nature during consideration of a Bill. As a matter of fact, in a bicameral set up like the one we have in Kenya, save for matters falling within the province of Article 114(2) of the Constitution, it is inconceivable for the Speaker of a House, by a decision made within the walls of the Speaker’s Chambers, to curtail a Bill from the other House from being introduced in the receiving House on the basis of it being unconstitutional."
