    "content": "Hon. Senators, you will recall that the Motion was negative. That being the case, the default position for the hearing of the impeachment charges against the Governor of Meru County will be held by the Senate sitting in Plenary, acting as the whole legislative body rather than a Special Committee. In line with the stipulated timelines in the County Governments Act and Standing Orders, a schedule of activities for the impeachment hearing in Plenary has been prepared. I have, therefore, appointed Tuesday, 7th and Wednesday, 8th November, 2023, as the days when the Senate will investigate the proposed removal from office, by impeachment, of Hon. Kawira Mwangaza, the Governor of Meru County. The morning sittings will commence at 9.00 am to 1.00 p.m. and afternoon sittings at 2.30 p.m. until conclusion of business listed on the Order Paper of the day. Consequently, in today’s Order Paper at Order No.9, a Procedural Motion for alteration of the meeting time of the Senate for Tuesday, 7th and Wednesday, 8th November, 2023, for the impeachment hearing against the Governor of Meru County has been listed in order to facilitate the Senate to conclude the matter within the timelines stipulated in the County Governments Act and the Senate Standing Orders. I thank you. Hon. Senators, to achieve what I have just read in the last paragraph, I would like to reorganise the business of the day. I would like us to proceed to Order No. 9 in the Order Paper and then we will come back to Order No. 3. Clerk, call the next Order. Proceed, Senate Majority Leader."
