    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, I was so anxious to make my proposal that I thought I had finished. My proposal to the Mover is as follows:- One, given that December has at least three holidays in it, 12th December, 2013, 25th December, 2013 and 26th December, 2013 and January has yet another holiday on new year’s day, I propose, with the support of the House, particularly that of my Chairman of the Committee on Finance, Commerce and Economic Affairs, Sen. Billow, with his wisdom, that we shall not count those holidays within the recess of 67 days because when you are on recess, you are actually recessing from work not from holiday. I leave this to the discretion of those who calculated these days. But at least, for the holidays that are gazetted in Kenya, my proposal is that we do not count them among the 67 days. That will mean that we stick strictly to working days. I am not sure what proposal I can make regarding the weekends. Having said that, I wish to congratulate those who worked on this Calendar clearly, so that we know exactly what is happening on each day of the week. This is commendable since it shows the manner in which we should proceed, so that we plan accordingly. I beg to support, Mr. Speaker, Sir."
