    "content": "THAT, pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order 97(1), this House orders that each speech in a debate on the Report of the Budget and Appropriations Committee on Budget Estimates contemplated under Standing Orders 239 and 240 be limited as follows— (a) General Supply Debate: A maximum of three sitting days, with 30 minutes for the Mover in moving and 15 minutes in replying; a maximum of fifteen minutes for each Chairperson of Departmental Committee and a maximum of 10 minutes for any other Member speaking, except the Leader of the Majority Party and the Leader of the Minority Party who shall be limited to a maximum of 15 minutes each; and that priority in speaking be accorded to the Leader of the Majority Party, the Leader of the Minority Party and the respective Chairpersons of Departmental Committees in the order that they appear in the Second Schedule to the Standing Orders; and, (b) Committee of Supply: A maximum of six sitting days for the consideration of the proposed allocations to the respective Votes/Programmes in the order specified in the Schedule submitted by the Budget and Appropriations Committee. Hon. Temporary Speaker, we are starting the budget cycle. We laid the BPS on the Table today. It is supposed to trigger the budget cycle. This Procedural Motion, therefore, gives guidance to that debate. People often ask what the Committee of Supply and General Supply Debate are. Sometimes, Members get mixed up. It is important that they acquaint themselves with the two. I request the honourable and almost Senior Counsel, Hon. Chepkonga, to second this."
