Mr. Speaker, Sir, is it in order for the senior Senator and senior counsel, Sen. Amos Wako, to debate things that are not on the Order Paper? We are splitting only two Committees.

Then he can engage in that direction. This one is only splitting two Committees.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, having consulted with you and having also tried to consult Sen. Khaniri earlier, I would like to cede this opportunity to Sen. Khaniri to move his Motion because I am not really prepared for move my Motion. I have also checked with the National Assembly and we still have a long time before we can get the message.
