    "content": "(Sen. (Prof.) Kindiki): Madam Temporary Speaker, I thank you, for this opportunity. I am gratified, having sat here and heard the very useful comments that my colleague Senators have made in support of this Motion. Madam Temporary Speaker, I do not want to really repeat what has been said. The only other point that I will add in reply is that it is hoped, as we have said before, that during this Session, we will spend a little more time debating and passing Bills. This is because last year, we did a bit of work in terms of passing Bills, but the majority of our work was on Motions. So, it is hoped that during this Session, we will have more legislation. I want to give the assurance to this House, from the Office of the Senate Majority Leader, that we have lined up a number of Bills on devolution and on other aspects of our legislative mandate to ensure that, during this Session which ends in December, we will be proudly talking of not less than two dozen – if not three dozens – of Bills. That can be done. So, Madam Temporary Speaker, with those two remarks, I beg to reply."
