Millie has received the YWCA Democracy Award and the Eve woman of the year for human rights and gender.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I seek your direction on that because we do not have a problem with the first part. When we go back to the CS’s proposal in the main Bill, and when we will be adopting it from the Bill, can you also move it in disjointed form? We can then pass that one and kill the one of the CS. Otherwise; we will throw the baby and the bath water.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, is the Chair of the Committee in order to mislead the House that the fund exists. It cannot exist in the air. It can only exist by statute. Can he tell us under what section of the Housing Act the Fund exists? The other thing he needs to tell us is this: If Hon. Duale is moving the amendment, he should convince us why there is need to put money for a fund that does not exist. Even Hon. Duale has spoken to it. The only thing he needs to do is persuade for it to ...

Yes, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. Thank you. We are not able to follow. Various Members have different amendments appearing on different pages of the Supplementary Order Paper. So, for us to follow – with the levels of consultations that are high – whenever a Member is moving an amendment, he can, at the same time, indicate the page so that we follow.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Hon. Mwadime wants to verbally challenge me from where he is sitting. I think that is un-procedural. It is on the issue of ranking. As Members of the Commonwealth and our Speaker has just been elected the Chair of the Parliamentary Association of the Commonwealth (PAC), the practice of ranking is guaranteed. That is why I am not even complaining when the Chair of the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs has come and found us here and yet he has spoken and left. When I came here for the first time, we ...

When Hon. Angwenyi comes in the House, he is the most ranking Member and we ought to take cognisance of that. I will not argue because we are praying for Hon. Members who are here for the first time to come next time so that they can be ranking Members. If you do not give me a chance, give Hon. Angwenyi. He is the most ranking Member. We need to take that into consideration.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, for giving me this opportunity. I would request that you properly guide the House. I have actually heard you say that what we have just voted on is a further amendment. It is a further amendment but I have not heard us voting on the actual amendment before the further amendment. To the best of my knowledge, we dealt with (a) and we did not deal with (c). You are not guiding the House properly. You are being distracted. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version ...
