Finally, I can see that Sen. Okiya Omtatah is back. The Jubilee Party Members; Sen. Dullo and our Temporary Speaker Sen. Abdul Haji--- He is very temperamental like his father, whom we served with in this House. He was a very tough chair of the Committee on Defense, Foreign Relations, and National Security. I remember one day, he almost beat us with---

Mr. Speaker, Sir, in conclusion, we need an anchored ruling from this. Allow me to table this ruling by the Speaker emeritus of the National Assembly. We are ready to proceed, but this injustice should not withstand.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I am not a fan of the Special Select Committee but this one is an exception. I believe when a Committee sits, they will give us a detailed report. I challenge the Committee that their role is anchored under Article 145. On the Third Schedule on the process of the removal, there are always two outcomes. If the charges are confirmed, it comes back for Division and debate. If they are not, the House notes it. Under Standing Order No.1 as it has been tradition, you can allow a few comments after that.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, can the Committee on Devolution and Intergovernmental Relations brief the House on Tuesday or Wednesday next week, as per your direction under Standing Order No.1, on what SRC and CoG are doing. Concerning CAF, we are proposing legislative and policy intervention to be anchored in law as a forum where these issues can be raised. The MCAs are looking upon us. This is their last line of defence. I call upon colleagues to stand with our leaders, who are mashinani . In conclusion, whenever there is a problem, these MCAs will always be at their home. Be ...

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I believe colleagues have asked questions. I would like to know whether the Cabinet Secretary has had a discussion. A few years ago, the Jubilee Administration removed Strategic Grain Reserve Programme. I do not know whether the Cabinet Secretary for EAC, ASALs and Regional Development has had a discussion with the Ministry of Agriculture and Livestock Development with a view of reviving the Strategic Grain Reserve Programme.
