    "content": "passage. In this regard, you will notice that I have directed the Clerk to list the two Bills for First Reading under Orders No.10 and 11 in the Supplementary Order Paper of today, Tuesday, 18th June 2024. Thereafter, both Bills will stand committed to the Budget and Appropriations Committee for consideration. I urge the Committee to prioritise the Bills and report to the House as soon as is practicable possible to enable the House to proceed with the next stage of the Bills. The fourth and fifth Messages convey that on 11th June 2024, the Senate considered and passed the Statutory Instruments (Amendment) Bill, (National Assembly Bill No. 2 of 2023), and the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (Amendment) Bill, (National Assembly Bill No. 10 of 2024), with amendments. The Senate has now referred the two Bills back to the National Assembly for consideration, pursuant to Article 112(1)(b) of the Constitution. Therefore, this House is required to consider the Senate amendments to the two Bills. In this regard, I direct the Clerk to circulate the Schedule of the Senate amendments to the two Bills to all Members. Thereafter, the Senate amendments to the Statutory Instruments (Amendment) Bill of 2023 will stand referred to the Committee on Delegated Legislation, while the Senate amendments to the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (Amendment) Bill of 2024 will stand referred to the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs. The two Committees are expected to expedite the consideration of the Senate amendments to the respective Bills and submit their reports to the House. Aware of the nature of the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (Amendment) Bill, I direct that the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs should table its Report this week on Thursday, 20th June 2024, during the morning Sitting. The House is accordingly guided. Thank you. Next Order."
