Hon. Deputy Speaker, I think we have spoken this afternoon in this House about respect and clarity. When the hon. Member refers to some Members as representing proper constituencies, what do other Members represent? Could he clarify? Is it in order for him to refer to some Members---

On a point of order, hon. Deputy Speaker. Usually, I do not like interrupting my friend hon. T.J.Kajwang because I know he is one of the best brains that we have in this country especially on legal matters. However, I realize that he, probably, has not really understood the financial issues. When you read Article 206 it talks about appropriation. I would like to remind him that this House has actually appropriated those funds. That is what we did a couple of weeks ago when we were appropriating money for the national Government.

So, we must admit that the Leader of Majority Party was not alert and, therefore, we shall do without that Statement this week.

Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker. I think the issue that has been raised by hon. Abongotum is a fundamental one and there was a time I raised the same issue. I think we need to be very clear on Standing Order 44. The Statement that the Leader of Majority Party is just about to deliver was requested under Standing Order 44 (c); it relates to matters under the mandate of the Committee; the Speaker may appoint a day for the issuing of the Statement or direct that the Statement be issued on the same day. So, these requests for Statements ...
