Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, as we appreciate the clarity with which you have ruled on this matter, not once, but severally, would I be in order, therefore, to request that you clarify on the issue of Sen. Mugo and Sen. Sijeny today? One, do you have any information from the Clerk’s Office that there are any instructions allowing either of them to vote? Two, who is senior of the two to take the mandate, because if they are two, there should be a senior one? Three, if none of them---

If there is no permission or order that any of them represents the Senator, then rule them out of order and punish them.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, mine is on the same issue. When you call for the Kamukunji which I assume you will accept the request, we also plead that the Members or representatives of the Parliamentary Service Commission (PSC), all the three Members, be available to answer a few questions directly.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am privy to information that Sen. Wangari is away on official duty in the Middle East. I did second this Bill when it was being moved. I would like to plead with the Chair that the voting is deferred and put together with the other Bills that are coming up. On a particular day, all Members will be informed that it will be a voting day, so that we do not lose important Bills because of lack of quorum. That is my plea.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would not say that it is under Standing Order No.54(3) as a personal message. But if it can fit, then it will be alright. I can read it if you want. Do I continue?
