Madam Temporary Speaker, Sen. Mwaura has to respect his colleagues. He is completely out of order. We protected him in the past when worse things were said about him by a Member of this House. In the same breath, when he says that a certain Senator should take over the chairmanship from the other, he is imputing improper motive on the presence of the current Chair.

Madam Temporary Speaker, I have listened to the various views that were more about the Committee on Health than Sen. Outa as a person. The sentiments are welcome and I appreciate the auditing of the performance of the Committee on Health, and I am the one who initiated that debate. I also urge Sen. Mwaura to be very cautious because he is also a Vice Chairperson of a Committee that we are likely to subject to the same auditing criteria that he is applying to others. That is why I am warning him about collective responsibility. I have had a ...

Madam Temporary Speaker, I have a point of order to raise. Before I do so, first with your permission, I join you in welcoming the staff from the county assemblies across the country.

I believe - as I said yesterday when the other team came - that this is a great opportunity for us to ...

Not at all, Madam Temporary Speaker. What they are wearing is closer to Legio Maria, which is a very important religion in this country. I thought that there was a sermon somewhere around this building and people were converted. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only.

I am on a point of order, Madam Temporary Speaker. The Standing Orders do not allow another point of order. I am equally satisfied with the explanation given. It is only Sen. Orengo who seems to have had the memo. If the memo was sent telling us to wear a white scarf or a white cap today, why discriminate against us? In the last Parliament, I laboured in this House four or five times, and the Hansard will bear me witness--- In fact, I turned myself to be a whip for purposes of mobilising both sides to vote for the ...

Madam Temporary Speaker, before I lay these Papers, allow me to request that Members should wait for the Division because we are just enough to vote, so that we do not miss the numbers. I am sure they have heard me. I just wanted to pass that message.
