Makali Mulu, as you know, from time to time, I do allocate… The Char really has the discretion and that should be encouraged. If I say the Member for Funyula may rise to speak on a matter to do with properties, even if the resolution was to say that every Member speaks for five minutes, I can use discretion. When I say the Member for Nambale and the Member for Kipipiri, then I am able to tell. If we give a certain Member even 10 or 20 minutes, you would do the business on the Order Paper justice. It is very useful as Hon. Duale said earlier on. When you look at the HANSARD, you can see that there was stuff. However, we should also be careful so that we do not give 30 minutes for somebody to say they love, adore and many other words. However, I am sure the House is at liberty. That is a thing that we have always done and encouraged. Should the House feel that this particular special Motion requires more time for each Member contributing, the House is at liberty. I am sure there is an agreement always in appropriate cases. Hon. Mbadi, you wanted to say something. The Floor is yours."
