    "content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, I also rise to support this report of the Committee on Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries, which is a response to the Petition that was lodged in the Senate by Kerich Kiprono Hillary on the 12th June, 2023. I have noted some procedural innovations, which I am happy about. Previously, when committees had a report responding to a petitioner, the report would just be laid and that ends there. There could just be some general comments and that would be the end of it. I am happy that the House has innovated. When there is a Petition or a report on a Petition, it is brought to this House as a Motion for adoption. This gives it further effect, because previously, the committee would just respond to the petitioner without any resolution of the House. Madam Temporary Speaker, I also note that petitions are meant to be resolved within a period of 60 to 90 days maximum, with extension. This Petition has taken some time, but I am happy that the committee has come back with a report. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Director, Hansard and AudioServices, Senate."
