    "content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, these are signs of things to come. I was asked to read this as Member of the Senate Business Committee (SBC) by the Senate Majority Leader. Pursuant to Standing Order No.52 (1), I hereby present to the Senate the business of the House for the week commencing Tuesday, 6th October, 2020. On Tuesday, 6th October 2020, the SBC will meet to schedule the business of the Senate. On that day, the Senate will consider Bills scheduled for the second reading, and those at the Committee of the Whole stages. The Senate will also continue with the consideration of business that will not be concluded in the day’s Order Paper, including Motions, Petitions and Statements. On Wednesday 7th October, 2020, and on Thursday 8th October 2001, Senate will continue with business that will not be concluded on Tuesday 6th October, 2020. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, a total of 23 Bills are due for the Second Reading. Another 18 Bills are at the Committee of the Whole stage. The SBC will prioritize these Bills accordingly. In this report, I urge the relevant Standing Committees to expeditiously conclude consideration of these Bills and table reports pursuant to the Standing Orders for purposes of enriching debates at the Second Reading stage, and to effectively navigate amendments during the Committee of the Whole stage. All Senators who may have amendments to Bills are encouraged to file the same in good time to allow the SBC to schedule the Bills accordingly. Respectively, Movers of Bills, Standing Committees and Senators who have already filed amendments to Bills are also encouraged to be in the House whenever the Bills are scheduled. This will facilitate speedy considerations and smooth transition to the next stage. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I thank you and herby lay the Statement on the Table of the House."
