First, I would like to thank my fellow Senator, from Trans Nzoia, for this very important Motion which is of concern to every citizen, particularly women.

• 24 Oct 2013 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. In view of the fact that this matter is bound to reoccur, would I be in order to suggest that this House organizes itself in such a way that Ministers come to answer questions, not during the House sittings, but during a Committee of the Whole?
