As you are aware, the Senate will proceed on a one-week recess at the rise of the House today until Monday, 10th April, 2023. Regular Sittings of the Senate will resume on 11th April 2023. There are twenty two (22) Bills that have been published in the Senate. Out of these Bills, nineteen are at the Second Reading Stage and one is at the Committee of the Whole Stage. One other Bill is undergoing concurrence as contemplated under Article 110 of the Constitution. This Bill will be scheduled for First Reading upon completion of this process by the Speakers of the Houses of Parliament. One Bill was concluded and assented to by His Excellency the President. As indicated in the Order Paper at Order No.8 and 9, there are Bills scheduled for Division at the Second Reading stage. I urge the Majority and Minority Whips to mobilize the requisite number of Senators, so that voting thereon can take place. Additionally, I continue to urge Movers of Bills to avail themselves in the Chamber whenever their Bills are scheduled in the Order Paper. I also urge Honourable Senators in accordance with our Constitutional mandate of representing the interests of counties and their governments, to attend Plenary Sittings to contribute to the business before the House."
