Hon. Moses Cheboi (Kuresoi North, JP) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. First, let me say I wanted to know the pronunciation of “sine die” because a number of doctors like Hon. Pukose were pronouncing it differently. It means we are adjourning without a date being fixed for future transaction. I went...

Hon. Moses Cheboi (Kuresoi North, JP) Many people like Hon. Ng’eno think it is for funeral processions. It is meant to wish each other well until you meet again. It says, ‘Till we meet again’. I know in the university he attended it would mean going away completely. Hon. Members,...

Hon. Moses Cheboi (Kuresoi South, JP) Yes, Hon. Chairman. I am sorry to call you Chairman because today, you are ordinarily a Speaker. I beg to move: THAT, the Standing Orders be amended by deleting Standing Order 3 and substituting therefor the following new Standing Order— Proceedings on assembly of...

Hon. Moses Cheboi (Kuresoi North, JP)

Hon. Moses Cheboi (Kuresoi North, JP) Hon. Deputy Chairman, that appeared to me as fairly straightforward. We have been doing some of these things, and sometimes we run short of time. This is basically to give enough time so that we do not have to rush. Some deliberations that are...

Hon. Moses Cheboi (Kuresoi North, JP) You know, Hon. Deputy Chairman, I am a bit surprised especially by Hon. Duale. This is a question that has arisen out of use of the Standing Orders. One, the console shows only about four names. Many times the Chair is accused of not...

Hon. Moses Cheboi (Kuresoi North, JP) Hon. Deputy Chairman, seated where you are, you saw what an hon. Member was doing when he wanted to catch your attention. He put up his hand. It is worse to put up your hand or gesture and sometimes even to grimace. This happens...

Hon. Moses Cheboi (Kuresoi North, JP) Hon. Deputy Chairman, this is the difficulty with bringing a Committee Report to the House. Sometimes you do not know whether to withdraw an amendment or not because when you withdraw it, again, you have not had a meeting. I tried to meet with...

Hon. Moses Cheboi (Kuresoi North, JP)

Hon. Moses Cheboi (Kuresoi North, JP)

Hon. Moses Cheboi (Kuresoi North, JP) No, it does not. It is very clear that it is about Bills introduced to implement resolutions of the House or recommendations to enact laws in response to petitions.

Hon. Moses Cheboi (Kuresoi North, JP)

Hon. Moses Cheboi (Kuresoi North, JP) Hon. Deputy Chairman, let me be very clear before other Members speak. I need to clarify something. I am extremely surprised that Members would have an issue with this amendment. First of all, it is not a must. You have a choice. Remember when...

Hon. Moses Cheboi (Kuresoi North, JP) Yes, Hon. Deputy Chairman. That is the position. We can put this provision in our Standing Orders but whether they do the same or not is not quite our problem. We will have done our bit and we may use the provision. If they...

Hon. Moses Cheboi (Kuresoi North, JP)

Hon. Moses Cheboi (Kuresoi North, JP) Hon. Deputy Chairman, the Standing Orders cannot be used to amend any legislation or the Constitution.

Hon. Moses Cheboi (Kuresoi North, JP) Hon. Deputy Chairman, I beg to withdraw that particular one because looking at it on the face value, it is actually accommodating both Vice- Chairpersons, including the Second Chairperson. I do not think we really need to progress with this one although I am...

Hon. Moses Cheboi (Kuresoi North, JP) Sorry. Just a minute. I had forgotten something small, which is procedural. I wish to now lay the said draft pieces of legislation as an addendum to the Report, which I had indicated earlier. (Hon. Moses Cheboi laid the Documents on the Table)

Hon. Moses Cheboi (Kuresoi North, JP) Thank you, Hon. Speaker. At the outset, I want to thank the Members of the Committee, led by you. I did not mention that clearly. The Members of the Committee did quite a good job. This is their product, including the Clerk and this...
