    "content": "Bill, National Assembly Bill No. 5 of 2020 which is appearing as Item 10 (ii), the Clerk’s Office has received various proposed amendments from several Members, part of which ought to be considered by the relevant Committee pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order 131. In this regard Hon. Members, I hereby invoke the provisions of Standing Order 131 regarding harmonisation of proposed amendments to a Bill and refer the amendments proposed by Hon. Millie Odhiambo-Mabona, MP and those proposed by Hon. (Dr.) Patrick Musimba, MP to the Departmental Committee on Sports, Culture and Tourism for consideration and harmonisation. My decision to invoke the provisions of Standing Order 131should not in any way discourage the two Hon. Members since they ultimately reserve the right to have their proposed amendments published and considered by the House. Indeed, this procedure is meant to ensure harmony and coordinated approach in the execution of the legislative authority of the House. In this regard, I encourage the Committee to also consider amendments proposed by any other Member to the Bill ahead of its consideration in the Committee of the whole House. Accordingly, Hon. Members, the Kenya National Library Service Bill (National Assembly Bill No.5 of 2020) will not be considered in the Committee of the whole House this afternoon."
