employed to do. Could the Assistant Minister assure this House that he will take steps against this so called, “senior officers” who engineered removal of police officers who were doing their work in accordance with the law and ensure that the court orders are immediately followed and that Peter Koome, Benjamin Kipchumba, Charles Ambogo and Andrew Budembeshe are not only reinstated but promoted and given an award for dutiful conduct?

On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Is it in order for the Minister to anticipate that this House is actually going to pass those Bills? He keeps saying “once the House passes,” yet the question is: The Bill has not been passed and so, what are the effects? Suppose the House does not pass those Bills when they come to the House next week, what are the repercussions?

Mr. Speaker, Sir, as the Minister prepares to give that Ministerial Statement, could he give the basis upon which he came to the conclusion that the perpetrators of the Machakos grenade blasts were followers of the Al Shabaab ? If, indeed, he had a basis for coming to that conclusion, what was the reason for the arrest and subsequent release of the suspects after assuring the Kenyan public that they are safe and the Government had moved to arrest the perpetrators?

On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I rise on a point of order, really, to find out the basis upon which this deferment is being sought and the nature of discussions.

Attorney General that I will be taking an issue regarding the constitutionality of the President’s Memorandum. If that is to clarify those issues, then may I have permission to lay the basis on why this Memorandum is unconstitutional?

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to support the petition and also thank hon. Dr. Khalwale for bringing it. At a time when this country is employing foreign engineers and at a time when we are crying about the unemployment situation of our youth, it is really a pity that the boards which are charged with the responsibility of meeting our professional standards are sleeping on the job. It is not just the KERB, rather other professional bodies are behaving the same way. This petition provides a good opportunity for them to learn that this Parliament will stand to intervene ...

On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is it in order for the Deputy Leader of Government Business to move a Motion to extend the sitting of the House to recover time that was lost this morning without first explaining where they were and without offering any form of apology? Is it in order?
