    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, on a point of order. Before we go to the next order and because we are going for recess, there is a point that is aching the Standing Committee on Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries. We have had a Bill here since October last year, the Coffee Bill, and we have been waiting it to be brought here for First Reading. However, that has not happened. Mr. Speaker, Sir, we are hearing rumours that there is another Bill which is being introduced in the National Assembly. The rumours that we are hearing is that the leadership of Senate has acceded to withdraw our Bill, the Bill of this House. My Committee has worked on this and has had so many sittings on this Bill in and out of Nairobi. When a Committee represents this House, there cannot be a unilateral decision to withdraw a Bill which belongs to this House and another Bill be introduced. If the issue was that you want to agree, then how comes that the Bill from the other side, the leadership of this House acceded to another Bill being introduced when your own Bill has been pending there all this time. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
