    "content": "The Cabinet Secretary for National Treasury and Economic Planning also has a Question from Sen. Mumma. The Cabinet Secretary for Roads and Transport has to respond to Question No.61 by the Senator for Kisumu County, Sen. (Prof.) Tom Ojienda Odhiambo, SC. The Cabinet Secretary for Roads and Transport will also respond to Questions from Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale and Sen. Gataya Mo Fire; Question No. 62 to No.65. Question No.66, 67 and 74 are to the Cabinet Secretary for Roads and Transport, the Hon. Davis Chirchir, from Sen. (Dr.) Murango, Sen. Tobiko and Sen. Joe Nyutu. The Cabinet Secretary for Labour and Social Protection also has Question No. 85 from Sen. Kavindu Muthama. The final one will be Question No.88 to the Cabinet Secretary Hon. John Mbadi, from Sen. Korir. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the business for the week of 4th September, 2024, Afternoon sitting will include business that will not have been concluded in the Order Paper for Tuesday 3rd September, 2024. There are various Bills that are at the Second Reading stage. I need not mention because a good number are before this House and Members know. There are Bills that are at the Committee of the Whole stage, which include the Houses of Parliament (Bicameral Relations) Bill (National Assembly Bills No.44 of 2023). Mr. Speaker, Sir, you are aware that when this Bill was brought up the last time, there appeared to have either been a miscommunication between the Chairperson and the membership or something was not accurately reported. At the SBC, the Chairperson had reported that the Standing Committee on Justice, Legal Affairs and Human Rights (JLAHR) was deleting all the clauses that the Senate found to be offensive and replacing them with our view on interpretation of Article 110 together with all contentious issues. That is the work that we expect from the Committee on Justice, Legal Affairs and Human Rights. I hope when we resume we shall consider this Bill. There is the Street Vendors (Protection of Livelihood) Bill (Senate Bills No.41 of 2023) and the Fire and Rescue Services Professionals Bill (Senate Bills No.55 of 2023) that are also at the Committee of the Whole. There is also a Motion on the development of a policy and law for social risk management in infrastructure development projects in Kenya by Sen. Mumma. I hope that Members who have Motions on the Order Paper can lead in being present on many afternoons. There are certain days that we have allocation of time to consider many of these Motions, but amongst four or five Motions that are in the Order Paper, unfortunately none of the sponsors are in the House. The projected business for Thursday, 5th September, will include business not included in the Order Paper for 3rd and 4th September. I thank you. I hereby lay the statement on the Table of the Senate."
