On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I would like to seek your indulgence. The Assistant Minister who is speaking is in charge of the same Ministry. He is complaining about their incompetence and inability to do what they are supposed to do. Is it in order for him to complain, and yet he has authority to do something about it?

Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I need your guidance on this matter. While I appreciate that according to the Standing Orders the amendment should have been approved by the Speaker before 2.00 p.m. I want to draw the your attention to the fact that the report of the Committee, which I also belong to, had already been tabled before this House and is, therefore, the property of the House. The only complication is that some of the contents of the report, which has already been tabled, was omitted while the Order Paper was being prepared. Would it not be right ...

Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I will make only a few comments to reinforce the wonderful contribution of the Assistant Minister and other hon. Members who have contributed towards this Motion. First, the Structural Adjustment Programme was one of the worst things that we ever did. So many Kenyans were forced out of jobs both in the private and public sector.
