Senators will recall, on Thursday, 27th March, 2025, the Senate held a Special Sitting during which Motions on the adoption of the Reports of the County Public Accounts Committee and the County Public Investments and Special Funds Committee were considered and approved. Additionally, the County Governments Additional Allocations Bill (Senate Bills No.1 of 2025) was considered and passed at the Second Reading stage. I take this opportunity to thank Hon. Senators for availing themselves for the Special Sitting and for their dedication to the work we were able to accomplish. The status of legislative business pending before the Senate is as follows- (i) Fifty-one Bills, of which 42 are at the Second Reading Stage and 17 are at the Committee of the Whole stage; (ii) Thirty-three Motions are pending conclusion; (iii) Twenty-six petitions are pending conclusion, out of which 18 are due for reporting by the respective Standing Committees; and (iv) Five hundred and sixty-eight statements pursuant to Standing Order No. 53(1) are under consideration by Committees. As Hon. Senators will recall, during yesterday’s afternoon sitting, Wednesday, 2nd April, 2025, the Speaker gave directives concerning the processing of Statements. In this regard, I implore Hon. Senators to adhere to the provisions of Standing Order No. 55 when making a request for a Statement."
