    "content": "Committee, which met on Tuesday, 18th June 2024 to prioritize business for consideration during the week commencing 24th June 2024. As Members are aware, debate on the Finance Bill, 2024 has been going on, and the Second Reading is expected to conclude this afternoon. I would like to commend the Departmental Committee on Finance and National Planning and, indeed, the House for the steadfast commitment and robust engagement on this business of great national interest. With regard to the business for Tuesday next week, the House is expected to give priority to business bound by statutory timelines. Further, the House is likely to sit longer, especially noting the resolution of the House earlier today approving a Tuesday morning sitting. The following Bills have been prioritised – 1. Second Reading of: (a) The Appropriation Bill, 2024; and, (b) The County Allocation of Revenue Bill (Senate Bill No.25 of 2024). 2. Committee of the Whole House on: (a) The Finance Bill, 2024; and, (b) The Appropriation Bill, 2024. 3. Second Reading of the following Bills, should they not be reached today – (a) The Land Laws (Amendment) (No.2) Bill, 2023; and, (b) The Mung Beans Bill (Senate Bill No.13 of 2022). Hon. Speaker, debate will also be undertaken on the following Motions, should they not be concluded today – 1. Reports of the Auditor-General on the National Government Constituencies Development Fund (NG-CDF) for nine constituencies in Bungoma County; 2. Report of the Public Petitions Committee on its consideration of public petition on funds spent contrary to the provisions of Article 223 of the Constitution; 3. Reports of the Auditor-General on the Financial Statements of Specified State Corporations; 4. Report of the Committee on Parliamentary Broadcasting and Library on enhancing reporting of Parliamentary business on online platforms; 5. Report of the Committee on Regional Integration on its inspection tour of the semi-autonomous institutions of the East African Community in Uganda; 6. Report of the Committee on Implementation on the implementation status of reports on petitions and resolutions passed by the House; 7. Report of the Committee on Trade, Industry and Cooperatives on its consideration of alleged unfair trade practices by foreign investors in Kenya; and, 8. Second Report of the Committee on National Cohesion and Equal Opportunity on employment diversity audit in public institutions. I previously told Members that the Cabinet Secretary for the Ministry of Interior and National Administration was scheduled to appear before the House on the afternoon of Wednesday, 19th June 2024 to respond to Questions in the Plenary. However, due to priority business before the House, the appearance was postponed to Wednesday, 26th June 2024. In this regard, Members whose Questions had been listed for response are encouraged to avail themselves then. Last week, I read out the whole list of the almost 16 Questions by various Members. Therefore, I do not need to repeat them. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
