Under Standing Order No.101 (4) , it appears as if the Senate Majority Leader is imputing a very improper motive on our part to raise those objections, yet the Mover of the Motion who was standing in for him has already apologised to us for not supplying that information that...

What is your point of order, Sen. Sifuna?

On a point of order, Madam Temporary Speaker.

good people, this is just about the PSC and nothing about us and our differences as a House.

We created this selection panel, which suffered many challenges in its setup. Some of which the Senator for Nairobi...

Madam Temporary Speaker, you know, I was in the farm in Kericho planting sugarcane. Then I was told there is a very important matter that I needed to look into here this afternoon. I do not know why people are finding too many things to complain about in this matter....

Before I allow the Hon. CS to respond, Hon. Senators, allow me to remind you that a supplementary question is a question that flows from the primary Question. The Questions by Sen. Mohamad Chute, Sen. Madzayo of Kilifi County and Sen. Mo Fire, do not qualify to be supplementary questions....

Sen. Mo Fire, please proceed.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. My question is to our former colleague, CS Soipan Tuya. There is an old tradition in this country that whenever we have a recruitment, especially the military recruitment, there is a lot of hue and cry from the public. People will go to an extent...

Sen. Murgor Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me the opportunity to join my colleagues in making my comments on the insecurity in Samburu County. It is pathetic that this area called Baragoi is all the time in news, that people have been killed, vehicles have been ambushed, things...

It is sad that the county government is taking advantage of them instead of helping...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, my concern is just that I am not satisfied with the answer given by the Cabinet Secretary in the first part of the Question. That is why I was trying to raise a point of order.

Sen. Murgor, your question has nothing to do with Sen. (Dr.) Murango's Question. That relates to the first question, which is now closed. Sen. Mwaruma has walked out, but Sen. Methu is not present. Sen. Osotsi, proceed.

Sen. Murgor Hon. Cabinet Secretary, as you respond to the first limb of that question, take note of the concern about the lady who is critically ill in Saudi Arabia. Please, proceed. The Cabinet Secretary for Labour and Social Protection (Hon. (Dr.) Alfred Mutua) : Mr. Speaker, Sir, the national...

Sen. Osotsi, let me assist you. Hon. Cabinet Secretary, within seven days, we need to get a detailed response to the questions by Sen. Osotsi and Sen. Madzayo, which should be filled with the Office of the Clerk. Next is Sen. Wambua.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, that has been a trend, even with the predecessor.

Sen. Osotsi, the Cabinet Secretary, undertook, just as he did, to find out and come back to you regarding Sen. Madzayo's question.
