    "content": "On Tuesday 14th June, 2022, the Senate Business Committee will meet to consider and approve the business for the week. Subject to approval to the Committee, the Senate will consider Bills at the Second Reading Stage, Bills at the Committee of the Whole Stage and Motions on Reports filed by the Select Committees. On Wednesday, the 15th June, 2022, the Senate will continue with the business that will not be not concluded on Tuesday 14th June, 2022, and any other business scheduled by the Senate Business Committee (SBC) while on Thursday, 16th June, 2022, the Senate will continue with business that will not have been concluded on Wednesday 15th June, 2022, and any other business scheduled by the SBC. In so far as legislative business is concerned, the agenda before the Senate is quite weighty. There are seven Bills at the Second Reading Stage; a total of 22 Bills at the Committee of the Whole Stage, six of which are pending Divisions as indicated in today’s Order Paper, from Order Nos. 11 to 16. Additionally, there are six Motions on adoption of various reports from the Standing Committees, at Order Nos. 10, 19 and 23 in today’s Order Paper. I take this opportunity to thank all Senators for availing themselves during the sitting of the Senate on Wednesday the 8th June, 2022 for the Division on the County Allocation of Revenue Bill (Senate Bills No. 1 of 2022), at the Second Reading Stage, Committee of the Whole Stage and Third Reading; National Assembly Amendment to the Mental Health Bill, (Senate Bill No. 28 of 2020) and other Bills that were pending at the Second Reading Stage. Other business before the Senate includes, 46 Petitions and Statements, pursuant to Standing Order Nos. 47 and 48. In this regard, I also urge Standing Committees to expedite consideration of the business pending before their respective committees and table the reports accordingly pursuant to the Standing Orders before the end of this 12th Parliament. Allow me to remind hon. Senators that apart from today, the Senate has only three sittings days before the Sine Die adjournment of the Senate. To that point, I would like to point out, that it is imperative that we dispense with all pending business before the adjournment."
