    "content": "Looking at the names of the Members in this Committee, you can see they have served in different capacities and we are sure that they will do their work very well when we are finally actualizing the application of Article 110(3) of our Constitution. This article put in place a mechanism that allows the Senate to do something that we have tried to do for such a long time. Now there is a way to jointly resolve any question as to whether a Bill concerns counties or it is an ordinary Bill. We have been able to resolve that now through the landmark ruling. Mr. Speaker, Sir, what it implies is that we, as Senate, are going to be in a very unprecedented position where we are looking at so many of the Bills that had already been introduced in this House. They had gone through the First, Second and Third Reading and now they are being republished. This is really a challenge for many Senators because they have to go through these Bills all over again and contextualize them in this new light. I request the SBC to prioritize these Bills. I know that the staff of the Senate have been working very hard. 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."
