Speaker","speaker_title":"","speaker":null,"content":"Hon. Members, we have a quorum to transact business. Hon. Members, if you look at your Order Paper, we have Order No.8, First Reading; Order No. 9, First Reading; Order No. 10, Question to be put; Order No. 11, Committee of the whole House on two Bills; Order No.12, Motion; and, Order No.13, Special Motion. If you look at your Standing Orders, Standing Order 68 gives utmost priority to a Special Motion. It says, and I quote, “A Motion for the removal of a person from office under this part shall take precedence over all other business on the Order Paper for the day.” This means that, when we have such a Motion, we do not entertain even preliminaries like laying of Papers or any other business for that matter. So, I will order the rearrangement of the Order Paper for Orders No. 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12 to appear on the Order Paper this afternoon, so that we go straight to Order No. 13, which is a Special Motion. Let me caution Members that I will not entertain any parochial politics drawn into the Motion. Stick to the issues as framed in the Motion and observe the general etiquette of debate in the House so that we can discharge our constitutional responsibility in an orderly manner. Lastly, I noticed when the Speaker's procession came in, several Members were busy seated and on their phones. That is a breach of your own Standing Orders. The moment the Sergeant-at-Arms stands at the Bar and alerts the House that Mister or Madam Speaker is walking in, everybody must drop what they are doing and be upstanding in respect of the House. Even if you do not respect the Speaker, respect the House so that you become orderly and respectful to your own Standing Orders. It is completely out of order for the Speaker to walk in the procession while you are seated and on the phone, as if nothing is happening in the House. Those members who are doing that, you know yourselves; I do not need to mention you. Do not do that again. Clerk, call out Order No.13."},{"id":1408884,"url":"http://info.mzalendo.com/api/v0.1/hansard/entries/1408884/?format=json","text_counter":12,"type":"heading","speaker_name":"","speaker_title":"","speaker":null,"content":"SPECIAL MOTION"},{"id":1408885,"url":"http://info.mzalendo.com/api/v0.1/hansard/entries/1408885/?format=json","text_counter":13,"type":"heading","speaker_name":"","speaker_title":"","speaker":null,"content":"DISMISSAL OF HON.

You will stick to your time as passed by the House at the beginning of the session. If you require an extension, the Chair will respond to your request when your time is spent, but you will certainly not have one hour. Secondly, Hon. Members, I have allocated three hours to this Motion from now to 1.00 p.m. At about 12.30 p.m., I will call upon the Mover to reply and allocate another 20 or 30 minutes for the vote. The Clerk sent a message that you must have your cards for electronic voting, which is more efficient and time saving. But in the event, many of you may not have your cards or the malfunctioning of equipment, then we will do a roll call vote. That will probably be twenty or thirty minutes, so the debate should be determined by 12:30 pm. Member for Bumula now you may proceed to move your Motion."}]}
