1 Mar 2016 in Senate:
Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I would like to guide the Chairman that the amendment is on page 49, paragraph 109(f)(iii) on Division of Revenue.

If you go to page 24 (iii), it says:- “The Committee notes that the Budget Policy Statement (BPS) uses a very conservative revenue growth rate in the computation of the equitable revenue share.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I appeal to you that over and above what Sen. Wetangula has prosecuted, there are two very important issues that should guide you in making this decision. That allows Sen. Khaniri to read the Petition; First, if the fear of the Office of the Clerk was that the petition was too long, already a precedent has been set.

25 Feb 2016 in Senate:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, what is more, in its original form, the petition has almost 1,500 signatures appended to it and this is what we should be pursuing. If the concern of the Clerk was that those signatures were not on a paper headed by the words; “Petitioned by the people of Vihiga,” then, he should have said so instead of trying to edit the petition.
