Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, this was on consequential amendments to the Elections Act but was hinged on the other amendment on Clause 22. I, therefore, wish to withdraw it since it will have nowhere to sit.

Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I will be very brief. I think the only reason Hon. Duale was raising that issue, and I am well guided on what you are saying in terms of the Order Paper and the Communication you are to give, is because we are in a House of records. When a Paper is laid, it becomes a record of the House and we will stand guided by your Communication. It is also worth noting that I got a communication from some Members of the Committee that there is also a minority report and I want to ...

Hon. Speaker, fortunately I had a sitting with bodaboda chairmen and secretary in the constituency. That is why I am late. I profusely apologise. Thank you for the indulgence. Listening to all the issues that have been raised, you must agree with me that there seems to be a problem. If you listened to what Hon. Abdullswamad raised, the Chairlady of the Departmental Committee on Finance and National Planning was at pains to enumerate the kind of struggles she has had to go through. It is indeed clear that there is a problem. I sit on the Committee on Members’ ...
