Thank you, Sen. G.G. I just want to say that Sen. Elachi was seeking a clarification as to whether her amendment up there has consequential effects to the last sentence down there.

Sen. Beth Mugo, we have also been to school. I just wanted to say that, one; I am not taking sides. I was just saying that “I am afraid” because my answer is negative in terms of the person who was raising the Motion.

Hon. Senators, I cannot really find out exactly whether the Ayes or the Nays have it. We just have to go for division even if it is not requested. But the problem is that we do not have the numbers nor the time. So, unless there is extension of time--- Can we repeat the vote?

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I agree with the Chairman of the Committee on Finance, Commerce and Economic Affairs that we might need to restrain ourselves. When we visit our counties, there are issues that the locals want us to address. They just tell you: “Can you tell us this and that.” It is important for us to know the specificity of what the committee is seized of. Our only food and bread and discussion is devolution.
