"content": " Hon. Senators, it is my pleasure and privilege to welcome you to the Fifth Session of the Senate. In accordance with the Standing Orders of the Senate, this Fifth Session begins today and will run until 2nd December, 2021. It is my hope that after the recess period and festive season, you have had an opportunity to spend time with your families, constituents and friends, and that you are re-energized for the Session that is ahead of us. Hon. Senators, I wish to commend you for the prodigious work you did in the Fourth Session in spite of the unforgiving effects and impact of the prevailing COVID-19 pandemic. Additionally, you may recall the gains that we had, most notable being the High Court ruling on Constitutional Petition No.284 of 2019, which buttressed the mandate of the Senate and the principle of concurrence enunciated in Article 110(3) of the Constitution and the approval of the Third Basis for Revenue Allocation among the County Governments."
