    "content": "Hon. Speaker, upon resumption, the House will continue with debate on the Reports of the 144th and 145th Assemblies of the Inter Parliamentary Union, the general debate on proposals to amend the Constitution under Standing Orders, and the Statute Law (Miscellaneous Amendments) Bill 2022 should they not be concluded today. Further, the House is also expected to begin debate on the ratification of the African Union Treaty for the establishment of the African Medicines Agency (AMA) and ratification of the agreement between Kenya and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Island on Defence Cooperation. The House Business Committee shall reconvene on Tuesday, 11th April 2023 to schedule business for the rest of the week. Hon. Speaker, in conclusion, I want to wish all our Muslim brothers and sisters in the House and around the country Ramadhan Mubarak as we begin observance of the holy month of Ramadhan today. I also note that the Easter holiday falls during the recess period. Therefore, on behalf of the House Business Committee, myself, and the great people of Kikuyu Constituency, I wish Members a happy Easter and a restful recess period as they spend time with their families. I wish them well as they discharge their constituency obligations noting that these two weeks will be a working recess for the committees to complete work that they would otherwise not do during regular sittings. I now wish to lay this Statement on the Table of the House. When we resume after the short recess of two weeks immediately after Easter, we expect that the Annual Estimates will come towards the end of that month. Therefore, the House will be very busy. So, take your time to engage with your constituents and your families during this short recess. As you take time to be in your committees, spend a little more time with your families because the Session after will be very busy. Thank you."
