    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I am holding brief for the substantive Leader of the Majority Party for his usual Thursday Statement. Pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order 44(2)(a), I rise to give the following Statement on behalf of the House Business Committee which met on Tuesday, 15th October 2024, to prioritise business for consideration during the week, although they still met today. I wish to commend the leadership of this House and Members for the dedication and cooperation exhibited in the Session so far. As Members will note, the House resolved to hold sittings tomorrow, Friday, 18th October 2024 commencing at 9.30 a.m and 2.30 p.m., respectively. The House is thereafter set to proceed on a short recess commencing Tuesday, 22nd October 2024 and resume regular sittings on Tuesday, 5th November 2024. I hope the Members who are consulting loudly, are able to take note of the particular dates. It will be remembered that during the last session when we went for a short recess, few Members still reported for duty in this House the following day because they were not very keen on when the House adjourned for short recess. I had said that the House is thereafter set to proceed on a short recess commencing Tuesday, 22nd October 2024 and resume regular sittings on Tuesday, 5th November 2024. With regard to the business scheduled for tomorrow, Friday 18th October 2024, the House is expected to consider the following private Members’ business and other priority business, some of which are listed on today’s Order Paper as follows: 1. Committee of the whole House of the Senate Amendments to the Food and Feed Safety Control Co-ordination Bill, 2023; 2. Second Reading of the following Bills: (a) The Higher Education Loans Board (Amendment) Bill, 2022; (b) The Parliamentary Pensions (Amendment) Bill, 2023; (c) The Public Finance Management (Amendment) Bill, 2022; (d) The Political Parties (Amendment) Bill, 2022; (e) The Parliamentary Pensions (Amendment) Bill, 2022; The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
