Order, Senators! We are in the Committee of the Whole to consider the Tobacco Control Regulations, 2014. We will consider the Regulations one by one.

Sen. Mugo, first of all, this is not a Bill. These are the regulations under the Act. Secondly, under the same Act, these are special kinds of Regulations because the same Act says that we have no power to amend. That if we are not in agreement with a certain Regulation, it be annulled so that the Ministry can propose those provisions. Let me hear Sen. Obure.

I do not know if I am allowed, as the Chairman, to ask from here. However, Mr. Chairman, you said that the reason for annulling it is because there are no pictures. However, there are pictures in the Schedule. What does that mean? Before the Chairman responds, let us listen to Sen. Wetangula then we shall hear Sen. Mugo.

Sen. Sang, you will answer that. Before you do so, let us listen to Sen. Mugo.
