Sen. (Dr.) Zani It is so deferred. (Putting of Question on the Bill deferred)

Which Bill are you talking about? Is it this one being discussed?

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, first, presuming I am wrong, in the tradition of Parliament, I withdraw and apologise on that particular bit. On the other hand, if I am right, then Sen. (Dr.) Zani is the one to withdraw the remark and apologise. I will confirm in a moment. November,...

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, can I therefore go to my contribution? I will withdraw and apologise if I am wrong. If I am right could you give the opportunity to Sen. (Dr.) Zani to withdraw her point of order and apologise? Sen. (Dr.) Zani Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I oblige...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I stand under Standing Order No.54 (3) to request that you defer the putting of question to tomorrow because we do not have the requisite number to vote.

Sen. (Dr.) Zani Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, unless I am very wrong, I just want to inform Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale, that just a few weeks back the NCIC released a report at the national level of opportunities in our institutions. It would be false to say they just deal with...

Sen. (Dr.) Zani Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, like my colleagues, I congratulate the MCAs because 35 of them signed this Petition.

Sen. (Dr.) Zani As I wind up, I think this particular petition will throw light on the process of bringing rules and regulations into streamlining the work that happens in county assemblies. Thank you. (Sen. Sang spoke off record) Sen. Sang, I am running the House. So, stop making such...

Sen. (Dr.) Zani Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. You may confuse Members with the name “Philomena” in the long run. They will wonder whether “Philomena” is the same one as “Agnes”. I confirm that “Agnes” is also “Philomena”. NOTING OF REPORT ON THE THIRD GLOBAL OPEN GOVERNMENT SUMMIT October...
