    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. This is the usual Thursday Statement. Today is a special Thursday since it is the last Thursday this year for normal Sittings. Hon. Speaker, pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order 44(2)(a), I rise to give the following Statement on behalf of the House Business Committee (HBC), which met on Monday, 2nd December 2024, to prioritise business for consideration during the week. As Members are aware, the House is scheduled to proceed for the long recess commencing after today’s Sitting, going by our Calendar of Regular Sittings. I wish to take this opportunity to thank the Leadership and Members of this House for your dedication and active participation during the Session. The House sat longer on some days and had additional Sittings to conclude various priority business. The HBC appreciates and notes the dedication and commitment of Members of the House. In retrospect, we have achieved a lot, dared greatly, shown a lot of enthusiasm in our work, and great devotion and dedication to our high calling as Members of the National Assembly of the Republic of Kenya. I want to encourage Members to continue with the same dedication. I must thank the Leadership of the House, all Members and our staff for the charisma and steadfastness they demonstrated during the tumultuous life-threatening events of 25th June 2024, and the aftermath. Your resilience is nothing short of inspiring, without which the House would not have quickly returned to normalcy, which enabled us to accomplish a lot and close the Session on a high note."
