Madam Temporary Speaker, being that our counties are neighbors, I hope that you will add me two more minutes. We must follow the rules and procedures set.

Being summoned is totally different from invitation. I agree that the danger we have in this country is the high cost of fuel which must be addressed. The issue of high electricity bills must also be addressed---

Madam Deputy Speaker, I hope this House is run by you not people who are shouting as if they are in a market place. My point of concern was that in the HANSARD that was presented before the two Ministers, it talked about the issue of electricity bills and what have you. What Sen. M. Kajwang is alluding to is that the CS, Energy has refused to answer some of the questions on issues of regulation within that Ministry. Therefore, he is not being relevant. That was my only contention because the relevancy is in the Motion that was presented ...
