    "content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, pursuant to Standing Order No.57(1), I hereby present to the Senate the business of the House for the week commencing Tuesday, 5th March, 2024. There are 34 Bills at Second Reading and four at the Committee of the Whole stage. Two of the Bills at the Second Reading stage have being listed for Division in today’s Order Paper at Order Nos.12 and 13. I request Majority and Minority Whips to mobilise the requisite number of county delegations for the Divisions to be undertaken. At Orders Nos.14 and 15 in today’s Order Paper, two Motions on consideration and adoption of reports of the Select Committee on County Public Investments and Special Funds have also been listed. I request the Speaker to give these Motions priority in the order of proceedings today to facilitate expeditious conclusion on them. I also request Senators to remain in the Chamber during debate on these Motions, so that we conclude on them before the rise of the House today. Mr. Speaker, Sir, on Petitions, a total of 22 Petitions are pending conclusion by respective Standing Committees. The summary of the committees that are yet to conclude the Petitions is as follows - Senate Standing Committee on Agriculture, I see Sen. (Dr.) Murango is here, the Chairperson of the Committee, you have two Petitions that are due for reporting. The Standing Committee on Education, the Chairperson, Sen. Joe Nyutu, was here a few minutes ago. He has two Petitions. The Standing Committee Energy. I have forgotten the Chairperson, but they have one Petition. Sen. Sifuna, you are a Member of this particular Committee. You have a Petition that is due for reporting. The Standing Committee on Finance and Budget has one Petition. The Standing Committee on Health has one Petition. The Standing Committee on Land, Environment and Natural Resources has eight Petitions; that is the Committee of Sen. Methu who I do not see in the House today, but I believe there are many Members of that Committee. They have eight Petitions that are due for reporting. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I urge Members of this Committee to do justice to the petitioners that have come before them by concluding on these eight petitions. The Standing Committee on National Security, some quite several Members are here. I do not see Sen. Cheptumo, but they have four Petitions due for reporting. When I say due for reporting, I mean they have overshot the Statutory 60-days period within which committees are supposed to report to the House. The Committee on Roads, Transportation and Housing has two Petitions. The Committee on Trade and Industrialisation, I see the Chairperson, Sen. Seki, is here. They have one Petition. In total, there are 22 Petitions. I request these committees to conclude these Petitions within the shortest time and table their reports so that Kenyans can continue to have faith and trust in this House. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Director, Hansard Services,Senate."
