• 4 Oct 2012 in National Assembly: That is where you have difficulties with the Chair. Your amendment is materially different from the one of the view
• 4 Oct 2012 in National Assembly: Order, Mr. Ogindo! The Chair is very alert and the Chair gave you the first opportunity to contribute to the Minister’s amendment in recognition of the fact that you were an interested party to that amendment.

• 4 Oct 2012 in National Assembly: We have heard you and the Chair will proceed to rule. view
