    "content": "which have complied with the provisions of Article 110(3) of the Constitution and also the judgement of the High Court of Kenya in Constitutional Petition No.284 of 2019. The Senate will also consider Motions, Petitions, Statements and continue with the consideration of business that will not been concluded in today‘s Order Paper. On Wednesday, 11th November, 2020, the Senate will continue with business that will not have been concluded on Tuesday 10th November, 2020 and any other business scheduled by the SBC. On Thursday 12th November, 2020, His Excellency the President of the Republic of Kenya will address a special sitting of Parliament in fulfilment of his responsibilities under Article 132(1)(b)(c) of the Constitution. The Special Sitting of Parliament will take place in the National Assembly Chamber Main Parliament Buildings. The address is a crucial event in the Calendar of Parliament and affords His Excellency the President the opportunity to not only highlight Government priorities, policies and legislative agenda, but also to report on all measures taken and progress achieved in realisation of the national values as envisaged in Article 10 of the Constitution. He will also report the progress made in fulfilling international obligations in the Republic of Kenya. As such, therefore, the SBC will not schedule any other business on that day. Madam Deputy Speaker, with respect to the Bill, we are all aware that the Judgement that was rendered by the High Court in Constitutional Petition No. 284 of 2019 has had far-reaching implications to the business of the Senate. I urge for patience and understanding as the Senate leadership engages our counterparts in the National Assembly to fast track the process of regularizing published Bill affected by the Judgement to conform to Article 110(3) of the Constitution."
