(Sen. (Prof.) Kindiki): Mr. Speaker, Sir, I know you have just passed a message about the PSC. I just needed your clarification whether this is the right time for me to give the notice of Motion, or should I wait? This is because some of the requirements for notice were discussed at the Rules and Business Committee meeting where I was not able to attend. So, I need your clarification and guidance.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I stand to second this Motion. I think the seven hon. Members of Parliament, both of the Upper House and the Lower House, are men and women of tremendous capabilities. We know them as passionate people; they have passion to protect the interest of Members of Parliament. I believe that they bring in diverse representation, both in terms of gender, regional and ethnic balance. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I do not want to spend more time because Senators really know that this institution needs to be up and running, particularly when it comes to the welfare of Senators. ...

It is commendable that they have started with 31.2 per cent or thereabout. It is important to note that these resources are necessary to ensure that counties start ...

Senator to bring a Motion for action to be taken by a separate body, organization or entity other than the one which has expressly been given the mandate by the Standing Orders? If you read the Standing Orders, you will realize that what Sen. Orengo is proposing is a function given to the Committee on Devolved Government and partly to the Committee on Legal Affairs and Human Rights. Do you not think the Notice of Motion is in contravention of ...
