Indeed, you are perfectly at liberty to raise objections. You had indicated to me and I had pointed out what you need to do if you want to deny the Minister leave. The Standing Order is very clear. This is what it says: “Leave of the House means there being no objection by any Member, either with the sympathy of the Speaker or the support of, at least, two other Members.” When the Clerk-at-the-Table read out the Bill - because it had been indicated to me that leave would be denied - I looked and there were no, at least, ...

On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I came a little bit late but I have had occasion to look at this myself since last week and it is quite clear too that it refers to any Kenyan national wishing or who has an interest in the petroleum industry. So, he should not be working---

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I had the bad fortune of being in Ahero over the weekend when the rains had poured and I was stuck on the road for more than four and a half hours. So, I have first-hand knowledge of what these people face year in, year out.
