    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I beg to second this adjournment Motion to adjourn the Senate up to Tuesday, 30th November, 2021 so that we allow the Senators to attend the Devolution Conference. This will be the last annual Devolution Conference. Moving on, it is going to be held bi-annually. That would also be very helpful so that we will be able to discuss issues that have arisen over time. This Devolution Conference is very important to the Senate. As you are aware, in Articles 94 and 96, the Senate’s role is to protect counties and their governments. Devolution is basically the core mandate of the Senate and, therefore, that conference cannot go on if the Senate is involved elsewhere or its attention is drawn elsewhere. It is important that we go and listen to what the county governments go through across the country, both the executive and county assemblies. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, with those few remarks, I second."
