    "content": " Order, Senators! That is why I am saying it is important to listen. He has declined it. In the absence of a Notice of Motion, this is what I want to communicate. I know that the Senate Majority Leader in whose name the Notice of Motion at Order No.3 in today's Order Paper has failed to give Notice of the Motion set out under Order No.4. As a result, both Orders become the subject of Standing Orders No.56 and 59, respectively. Standing Order No.56(1) provides as follows- \"A notice of Motion may be withdrawn by the Senator who gave the notice.\" Standing Order No.59(1) on the time for moving Motion provides as follows- \"The Senate Business Committee shall allot the time and sequence of the publication in the Order Paper of every Motion approved by the Speaker.\" Standing Order No.59(2) states that- \"Save for a Special Motion, a Senator who has a Motion in his or her name may authorize, in writing, another Senator to- (a) move that Motion in the Senator's stead; or (b) on conclusion of debate and before the Question is put, to reply in the Senator's stead.\" Standing Order No.59(3) states that- \"Where no Senator moves a Motion at the time specified by or under these Standing Orders, such Motion shall not be published again in the Order Paper during the same Session except with the leave of the Speaker.\" Hon. Senators as earlier explained, Standing Order No.75 provides only two options for the Senate when it has to investigate the matter of a proposed removal from office by impeachment of a governor of a county. The two options are either by a special Committee appointed by the Senate by resolution or the Senate in Plenary. A resolution is required only if the Senate seeks to proceed by way of a special Committee. Otherwise, the default is the Plenary, for which Standing Order 75 does not require a resolution. The Majority Leader having withdrawn or otherwise abandoned the Notice of Motion, therefore the Motion--- The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
