    "content": " Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I thank you for indulging me. Colleagues, you understand that we are living in very unique times. Therefore, when we get a little breather and some sense of sanity in the House, we want to move as fast as possible and transact as much as we can. This is one among a series of Motions that I want to move this afternoon, so that we can set the Calendar of the House and a few things that we want to do, like Committees. This is because there are colleagues who do not have the same. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to move the following Motion- THAT pursuant to Standing Order No. 32 (1), the Senate approves the Calendar (Regular Sessions) for the Second Session of the Thirteenth Parliament (February to December, 2023), laid on the Table of the Senate on Wednesday, 15th February, 2023. Mr. Deputy Speaker Sir, I laid that Calendar here yesterday and most of the Members have it. It is on their gadgets. It is a simple procedure of setting the dates upon which we shall be meeting, from February all the way up to December. This is a long period. Of course, there are recesses in between. There are moments we will take a break. However, it is a fairly straightforward matter. I want to convince my colleagues in the Senate that we pass this Motion, so that now we have a fixed Calendar. There will be amendments here and there, as is the usual practice. There may be a need for a special sitting at a particular time. However, given that this is the first order that we want to do, I request that we pass this Calendar of the House, so that we know how we proceed from here. It is a fairly straightforward matter, which I do not want to speak very much at length to. I request Sen. Chimera to second."
