    "content": " Just before I put the voice vote, I want to bring to your attention Standing Order No.69(1) which states as follows; “When the Senate is to vote on any matter other than a Bill, the Speaker shall rule on whether the matter affects or does not affect counties. (2) The Speaker’s ruling under paragraph (1) shall be made after conclusion of debate on the matter but before the Question is put. (3) When the Senate votes on a matter that does not affect counties, each Senator has one vote.” Hon. Senators, I, therefore, rule that the subject matter before us in this Motion is of general national interest and not necessarily affecting counties within the meaning of Article 123 of the Constitution. It, therefore, follows that to the Question on this Motion, each Senator will have one vote."
