    "content": "Hon. Members, as you are aware, on Wednesday, 16th October 2024, the House rejected the Motion on consideration of the Senate amendments to the Division of Revenue (Amendment) Bill, (National Assembly Bill No.38 of 2024). This decision essentially committed the Bill to a mediation committee in accordance with the provisions of Article 112 of the Constitution and Standing Order 149. Hon. Members, Article 113 of the Constitution requires that whenever a Bill is referred to a mediation committee, the Speakers of the Houses of Parliament shall appoint an equal number of Members from both Houses to attempt to develop a version of the Bill for consideration by the Houses of Parliament. In this regard, Hon. Members, having consulted with the Leader of the Majority Party and the Leader of the Minority Party, I have appointed the following Members to represent the National Assembly in the Mediation Committee on the Division of Revenue (Amendment) Bill, 2024: 1. The Hon. Ndindi Nyoro, CBS, MP; 2. The Hon. Mary Emaase, MP; 3. The Hon. (Dr) John Chikati, MP; 4. The Hon. David Ochieng’, CBS, MP; 5. The Hon. David Kiplagat, MP; 6. The Hon. (Dr) Otiende Amollo, SC, MP; 7. The Hon. Fatuma Jehow, MP; 8. The Hon. (Dr) Makali Mulu, MP; and, 9. The Hon. (Dr) Ojiambo Oundo, MP. Hon. Members, the aforementioned Members will await the appointment of Senators to the Mediation Committee for the Committee to be fully constituted for purposes of commencing the mediation process. Once I receive a Message from the Senate to that effect, I will convey the same to the House. 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."
