Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. What Hon. Osoro is trying to do is mute because nomination is election by party list. So, whether you are nominated or elected through universal suffrage, or you are elected through the party list, you are an elected Member. So, there should be no worry. So, what Hon. Osoro is doing achieves nothing and, therefore, he should withdraw it or we oppose it.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. Hon. Ndindi Nyoro rose in his place and made totally reckless and unfounded statements that erodes not only the dignity of some Members but of all the Members of this House. He made an unfounded claim that Hon. Fatuma Gedi was walking around this House giving out money. As the Chair, I would like you to challenge Hon. Ndindi Nyoro to substantiate that very reckless claim that he made against Hon. Gedi. If he cannot substantiate it, he should go ahead and withdraw that statement. This is not on Hon. Ndindi but it is ...

On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. We are in the Committee of the whole House. Could you give some guidance with regards to how you move your amendments in the Committee, other than having it as making contributions in Second Reading? I seek your guidance on that matter so that we are not treated to a ten minute’s presentation like we are in Second Reading.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I appreciate that Hon. Alice Wahome and the entire brigade of UDA MPs have had a very rough day but to take it out on me is really out of order. She cannot carry all the frustrations of losing all the amendments and put them on me. These are the numbers here. These are the people who have defeated those amendments. It has nothing to do with Gladys Wanga. It is only because team

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. What Hon. (Dr.) Musimba wanted to do in the first place was to move the appointment of the Director General of the Assets Recovery Agency from how it is done currently to the Public Service Commission, which he was then revoking to return to the Advisory Board that we are currently dealing with. As Hon. Sankok is saying, it might not make sense to bring that appointee to the Floor because which route will the appointee come in? These appointees that we vet come from the President or the Public Service Commission.
