On a point of order, Hon. Speaker. I rise on Standing Order Nos.90 and 114 as read together with Article 122(3) of the Constitution. I stand well guided on my amendment and all the other proposed amendments. I will be taking up that challenge to introduce the matter you have so ruled in your Communication, which would open up issues that are beyond the scope of this particular Bill. I am sure Hon. Kimaru and Hon. Moses Kuria are also well guided.

Hon. Speaker, I want to pick up the words, “and of those whose interests you have committed to our charge.” Our Standing Order No.90 also speaks to this. Article 122(3) of the Constitution also speaks to the matter of voting in Parliament. If you allow me, the Constitution is clear that on voting in Parliament Article 122(3) states: The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor.
