    "content": " Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to move the following Procedural Motion:- THAT, notwithstanding the provisions of Standing Order No.20(2); this House resolves that the Sitting Time of the House today, Thursday, 16th June, 2011, be extended until the Business as set out in the Order Paper is concluded. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, let me, once again, congratulate hon. Members for having agreed yesterday to stay on and we were able to finish the business that was there on the Order Paper. As you will notice, it is now 5.15 p.m. and we need three hours for the various financial Bills that are with us, the Vote on Account and the guarantee which is required for support of the Budget. We also need to pass the Independent Offices (Appointment) Bill which we need, so that we can start the new financial year with the offices. Another three hours will be required for the Motion for Adjournment to facilitate us to go on the one month break so that we can go and sort out our Constituencies Development Funds and get the Committees moving. Hence we cannot package all that within the one and a quarter hours that is remaining. So, I really want to ask hon. Members that we do as we promised Kenyans to do; we add extra time to sit. We dispose of this business in the House today and then we can all go home feeling we have achieved. I beg to move. I would like to ask the real stakeholders in this matter of adjournment and in terms of wanting to conclude business today, Mr. Ogindo to second."
