    "content": "Constituency Development Fund, the National Government Affirmative Action Fund, the Senate Oversight Fund and the Economic Stimulus and Empowerment Fund in the Constitution. Following that Statement, over 120 Members made their general remarks on this legislative proposal and in this regard, pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order 114(7)(a), you committed to facilitate the collation of view from Members in an appropriate forum. Therefore, Hon. Temporary Speaker, the House Business Committee (HBC) in its sitting proposed the establishment to this Joint Ad Hoc Committee to collate the views raised by Members considering that the legislative proposal touches on the functions of county governments in terms of Article 110 of the Constitution and, therefore, necessitates this to be a consideration of the matter in a bicameral manner hence the request for the Senate to appoint a similar number of Members to represent the Senate in the Joint Ad Hoc Committee. Hon. Temporary Speaker the Committee, if approved, will carry out public participation in accordance with the provisions of Article 118(1)(b) of the Constitution. It should report back to the both Houses in 90 days to enable the Hon. Speaker decide and give direction on whether the legislative proposal then should be published into a Bill or not. Hon. Temporary Speaker, as you put the Question on the earlier Motion on the Constitution of Constituency Fund Committees, I did hear… (Hon. Temporary Speaker, if you can allow the leaders in the Minority side to consult and pass a note to me on the further amendment, with your indulgence, that they intend to make on the list, but also to encourage to be doing these consultations earlier and not on the Floor)."
