Mr. Speaker, Sir, I also want them to send my greetings to the Head of State of Tanzania because of the concerted effort that he ... view
• 21 Feb 2017 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would like to request the Senate Majority Leader to make a slight clarification. In the membership of Departmental Committees, Sen. (Dr.) Machage who is the Senator for Migori County is in the Committee on Health.

• 16 Feb 2017 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I thank you for that clarification. However, the tradition has been as follows; when the Speaker deems it necessary to vary the sequence as it appears on the Order Paper, the Speaker normally directs from that Chair for example “Order No.4 on the Order Paper shall be stayed until some other time.” In traditional practice of this House, you do not allow that Order to start then stop it in the middle to accommodate somebody.
