Mr. Speaker, Sir, I was hoping the Deputy Speaker does not interrupt so that if I welcome both schools you will allow me to make my comments on the Statements. I abide by your guidance. I take this opportunity on behalf of the Senate to welcome the Students from Kenyatta University law campus who are here on an educational tour to visit the Senate part of the Parliament of the Republic of Kenya. All we do here is talk because that is what parliaments do. People share ideas, critique the Government and exchange ideas. This is what we come to ...

you appreciate and see the kind of rigorous debate that happens during the consideration of amendments. Nonetheless, I welcome them to the institution of the Senate. I know they have been given a good study tour by our competent staff. I know they will learn more as they engage with us. I would be remiss if having gotten the opportunity I failed to appreciate the form four boys from Kiurani Boys High School. I wish them well in their studies. I was a Form 4 student in 2004; exactly 20 years ago and here we are today. Your journey to ...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I take this opportunity, on behalf of all my colleagues, to welcome visiting students from Mama Ngina University College in Kiambu County. I am sure that when they scheduled a visit to the Senate, it was because of appreciation of the good work that has been going on in this House. The students have visited to understand the law-making procedures. They should draw inspiration from their leaders, knowing that in the next few years, many of us will not be in this House. Therefore, we will be looking up to them to shepherd and guide our country, ...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, rather than a point of order, it is to seek your direction on a matter that if not arrested, will soon lead us into a stalemate between us and our colleagues in the National Assembly. Occasionally when I am not in the Chamber, I follow proceedings of what happens in the National Assembly, especially when they are debating Bills that have emanated from the Senate. If I am not wrong, this is the second Bill in this Session that the National Assembly has negated at the Second Reading Stage. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I even said this to ...
