    "content": "Pursuant to Standing Order No. 44(2)(a), on behalf of the House Business Committee, I rise to give the following Statement regarding the business appearing before the House the week beginning Tuesday, 26th August, 2014. The House Business Committee met on Tuesday this week and gave the priority of the business for this week and next week. In this regard, on Tuesday, the House is expected to consider the Third Reading of Constitution of Kenya (Amendment) Bill, 2013. This Bill is proposed by Hon. Lati Lelelit, Member of Parliament, Samburu West, and proposes to amend the Constitution to ensure marginalized constituencies access the equalization funds to supplement the CDF. In accordance with Article 256(d) of the Constitution, a threshold of 233 Members is required to pass this Bill and, thereafter, be referred to the Senate. Through you, hon. Speaker, I request Members to avail themselves in numbers on Tuesday so as to complete this journey further. The House, on the same day, will also go into the Committee of the Whole House to consider the Victim Protection Bill, 2013, if it is not concluded today and the Finance Bill, 2014. Hon. Members, you will recall that during the Speaker’s Kamukunji, we agreed to conclude the Finance Bill because it has a statutory deadline of 24th September, The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
