Madam Temporary Speaker, Clause 4(b) speaks about a petition being presented by a Member of a County Assembly on behalf of a petitioner with the consent of the Speaker. This is extremely important.

• 17 Oct 2018 in Senate: It is important for those who sit in the Senate Business Committee (SBC) to properly think through this issue and give us a way forward, as Senators.
