Pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order 44(2)(a), I rise to give Statement on behalf of the House Business Committee which met on Tuesday, 14th March 2023 to prioritise business for consideration during the week. As Members are aware, this week, the House approved reports of the 2023 Medium- Term Debt Management Strategy and the 2023 Budget Policy Statement for the Financial Year 2023/2024. Hon. Deputy Speaker, allow me to thank the Committees and the House for the steadfast commitment that saw the conclusion of this important business in our budget cycle. On Tuesday next week, it is expected that the Division of Revenue Bill, 2023, which is pegged on the 2023 BPS that was approved yesterday, will be published and read the First Time. The House will continue with the general debate on the proposals to amend the Constitution and the Standing Orders, as well as debate on reports of the 61st Session of the Organisation of Africa, Caribbean and Pacific Group of States (OACPS) Parliamentary Assembly and the 42nd Session of the ACP-EU Joint Parliamentary Assembly; and Second Reading of the Statute Law (Miscellaneous Amendments) Bill, 2022, should they not be concluded today. The House will also begin debate on Reports of delegations representing Kenya in the Pan-African Parliament (PAP) and the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU). Finally, the House Business Committee shall reconvene on Tuesday, 21st March 2023, to schedule business for the rest of the week. I now lay this Statement on the Table of the House. Thank you.
