"content": "(Mr. M. Kilonzo): Thank you Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. Allow me to persuade my colleagues that there is some confusion on this matter. Let me say, again, that I have been challenged that there are no Bills on the Floor of the House. Let me also say that, barely a week ago, the House allowed the publication period of the Bill to be reduced. Today, we are simply asking you to debate the Bill, itself, for Second Reading and reduce the number of days. If you look at the calendar, you will notice that today is Wednesday and tomorrow is Thursday. In fact, if we do not reduce the number of days from six to four, strictly speaking, what Parliament will gain is Tuesday next week. Otherwise, by tomorrow, there will only be two more days left. It is not true that there are no Bills in the pipeline. I am a bit surprised by the Chair of CIOC because he is our oversight. He knows the work we are doing. We have a big spectrum of Bills. Right now, the Cabinet Office has the Political Parties Bill. Next week, we will publish even more Bills. My challenge to the House is that by 26th August, there will be an enormous amount of Bills that will be required and outstanding. Since this Bill is available now, I beg to support the Motion."
