    "content": " Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to move:- THAT, pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order No.98, this House orders that the publication period of the Accountants Bill be reduced from 14 to seven days. The reasons for this Procedural Motion, to the majority of us in this House, are very clearly elaborated. If we do not reduce the publication period today, it is likely that the request by the hon. Member for Isiolo South Constituency, Mr. Bahari, will have to be complied with because then we will not have any business. We will have no option but to adjourn. It is also important to realise that it is about time we speedily discussed this proposed legislation because the Minister for Finance is, understandably, prepared to move on with this debate. But unless we reduce the publication period from the 14 days to seven days, we will not be able to deal with this matter. The Bill is dated 8th April, 2008. The normal maturity period would ordinarily have been the two weeks. With those few remarks, I beg to move."
