    "content": "(ii) The Motion on the approval of the appointment of two members of the Parliamentary Service Commission, whose Notice of Motion was moved this afternoon. Hon. Members will recall that, that Motion was deferred during the last Session. I wish to call upon hon. Members to participate in this Motion with a clear mind since the two members that this House will approve will be part of the Commission that is charged with the responsibility of looking into matters and welfare of hon. Members as well of that of the staff, to ensure efficient service delivery for Parliament as an institution. Further, in the event that the Bills listed in the Order Paper today are not concluded, then it follows that they will comprise the business for next week. They include:- (i) The Kenya Qualification Framework Bill, 2013. (ii) The Constitution of Kenya (Amendment) Bill No.1, 2013. The House Business Committee has also approved the Committee of the whole House for the Public Procurement and Disposal (Amendment) Bill, 2013, whose debate was concluded yesterday. I wish to urge hon. Members who have expressed intentions to move amendments to the Bill to present their proposals to the Legal Department of Parliament in good time. That is because all the proposed amendments must appear on the Order Paper. The HBC has also given priority for the Second Reading of two very important Bills. These are the County Government (Amendment) Bill, 2013, and the National Flag, Emblems and Names (Amendment) Bill, 2013, all from the Senate. Hon. Speaker, it is important that we conclude these two very important Bills from our colleagues so that we can return them to the Senate. The two Bills are very important because they will bring order and sanity in the management and conduct of county governments."
