You will all agree with me that the public participation processes enables broad consultations on a Bill, as committees engage key stakeholders to receive their views and incorporate them in making their report to the Senate. While the importance of this process cannot be gainsaid, I urge Standing Committees to also ensure that the legislative process proceeds to the next stage in a timely manner. Hon. Senators, as we all know, the COVID-19 pandemic situation continues to persist globally and also here at home. As national leaders, we must prioritize the interests of the country and the safety of all citizens. Let us lead by example by observing the COVID-19 protocols at all times in both the Plenary and in Committee meetings."
