Maybe, for the benefit of the Senator for Samburu, you will appreciate that we formed the Rules and Business Committee only this morning and it was in the inaugural meeting that this agenda cropped up and the Committee agreed unanimously. So, there is nothing between the Speaker of the Senate...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, mine is to thank all those who have spoken in support of this Motion. I think in the process of learning how to conduct our affairs as Senators and also from the Chair’s side – I have heard a few comments that relate to the communication between...
