2 May 2013 in National Assembly:
Hon. Speaker, Sir, I support this Petition. I want from the outset to say to the nation that hon. Linturi is both within the Constitution and the Standing Orders. The Standing Orders provide that a Member of this House can bring either public or a private petition. Two, what hon. Linturi is doing can be done to any other Commission.

2 May 2013 in National Assembly:
On a point of order, hon. Speaker, Sir. It is fundamental. Yes, the newcomers can speak. But they cannot mis-inform and violate the same Constitution. This debate is all about the Standing Orders. That is why last week, and the nation was here, we formed the Procedure and House Rules Committee. Any Member who sees that these Standing Orders violate the Constitution; that the Standing Orders are not in tandem with the HBC, there are procedures and processes to be followed.
