Hon. Members are turning this House into their dining tables. For example, if you can look at hon. Sumra he is chewing something. Can he stand, open his mouth and tell us what he is eating? If to chew in this House is not a taboo, I am from Meru and I should be allowed to chew miraa. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
