    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I rise to second the Motion by Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale. As a member of the Senate Business Committee (SBC), this is a matter that I am aware of. We discussed before the Committee that to accommodate those of our colleagues who have been lucky enough to represent our Parliament in the East Africa Legislative Assembly (EALA) games, we move tomorrow’s afternoon sitting to the morning, so that we can complete some of the matters that are on the Order Paper. It is always a concern for us at the SBC when we see certain matters taking too long on the Order Paper, especially those that affect legislative business. There are some Bills that are due for Division after the Second Reading and some for the Committee of the Whole House. In consideration of the fact that we are proceeding for the long recess starting Friday, it is quite urgent that we can find the opportunity to process this business before our colleagues travel. Therefore, I will be appealing to all the Senators who might be traveling tomorrow, please avail yourselves for the morning session. The SBC was also kind enough to make sure that the session tomorrow and even today is hybrid. There is no reason for not logging in from wherever you are. Unless you have traveled only in sports attire that will not allow you to participate in the sessions here. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I strongly second and hope that tomorrow and today, we can make some progress so that we ease the Order Paper before we proceed to the long recess."
