Thank you for withdrawing. Hon. Members, allow me to give directions on the issue raised by Hon. Kimani Ichung'wah.

The Speaker finds himself in a difficult position because he was not in the House when this issue was raised. Therefore, the presiding Speaker has not been fully informed. This matter was also not part of the report from the Committee of the whole House. Members will agree that the ...

Orders to name with evidence or under the governing Act governing the immunities, privileges, and the code of conduct to which Members are bound. I direct that the matter rests because it is impossible for the Speaker to conclusively determine what happened. However, I leave it open to the Leader of the Majority Party or any other concerned Member with how we should conduct ourselves during debate, to pursue it through the other prescribed avenues under the Standing Orders. The next Order had been read. Who is moving it? Proceed Deputy Leader of the Majority Party.

Leader of the Majority Party, this is a very important Bill. You are always very educative. I am happy that the Bill has come from you. However, before you sit, I want to pick your mind for purposes of general debate. I know you will have an opportunity to reply. I do not know whether you have the Bill.

With your approval, look at Clause 33. The Leader of the Majority Party should answer so that Members are informed as we debate the Bill in terms of the areas we could tighten. Clause 33 states that the Authority has to, first, classify a disaster as either a county disaster or a disaster falling within the remit of the national Government before any action or intervention can take place. Assume that it was a terrorist attack like the one that occurred at the Embassy of the United States of America and this classification is not timed, how will this provision ...
