Hon. Ruto, are you addressing the issues that are being addressed to the Attorney-General, so that he can respond to all of them?

Then you are out of order to stand at this particular moment. This is because we are now asking the Attorney-General to clarify a number of issues. I asked whether the points of order relate to that issue. Hon. Mututho, it had better be on the issue that the Attorney-General is addressing.

Mr. Attorney-General, are you suggesting to the House that where the Constitution sets straight timelines within which a certain matter must be done, you can ignore those timelines, particularly when you look at Articles 115, 116 and 117?

Order! Strictly speaking, that is not a point of order although I have allowed it.

Hon. Ogindo, that is a substantive issue which you can raise under that Order. We have not even reached the Order. So, you are really anticipating debate. It is a valid point that you can raise when we reach that particular Order. You can see it is business under Order No.10 and we are nowhere near there.
