    "content": "Hon. Members, I wish to welcome you back to the House after the short recess, which coincided with the observance of the Easter period, for Christians and Ramadhan, for the Muslims. It is my hope that you are well renewed in your spirits and rejuvenated in your minds to resume transaction of the business of the House for the remainder of the first part of this Session. During this period, the House is expected to consider various priority businesses including assessing the suitability of persons nominated for appointment to the positions of ambassadors and high commissioners, ratification of the Kenya-European Union Economic Partnership Agreement (EPAs), consideration of priority Bills, as well as the budget-related matters. Instructively, it is projected that the National Treasury will submit the Budget Estimates for the national Government for the Financial Year 2024/2025 on or before 30th April 2024. Additionally, you will recall that, prior to the short recess, the House passed the Division of Revenue Bill, 2024 and referred it to the Senate for the bicameral consideration. It is therefore expected that the Senate will send the Bill back, together with the annual County Allocation of Revenue Bill for Financial Year 2024/2025, during this part of the Session. From the foregoing, it is evident that the House has a full in-tray. As a result, your dedication and commitment to the business of the House both in plenary and committees will be of paramount significance. Hon. Members, with respect to facilitation of Members, the Parliamentary Service Commission is expediting the completion of the Bunge Tower in order to bridge the deficit in The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor"
