    "content": "On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I just want to thank you for making that clearer. This is because this is not the first time that you have talked about this. This is also not the first time that we lack quorum; it is only that we do not raise it, because if we were to raise issues of quorum, then there would be no sittings in this House severally. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, you have made rulings previously about people transacting their Business in the Order Paper. Many times before, you have had to jump what is on the Order Paper and also adjourn the House before time. This is because those who are supposed to move Motions or process Business are not in the House. We have talked about this, even in Kamukunji’s . You should probably have ordered the leadership of Majority and Minority sides to make a Statement in this House as to whether we are really serious in terms of prosecuting the Business that we have before us. I, therefore, thank you for emphasizing that they be told that we are here to work on behalf of Kenyans; and that they should explain to this House why all these seats are empty."
