    "content": "(Sen. (Prof) Kindiki): Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I just want to make three highlights regarding the Business of next week and then I will table the Statement. The first one is that as hon. Senators may know, we are supposed to proceed on recess at the end of today’s Sitting. Therefore, we will be moving a Motion of Adjournment as usual. This is a subject that is already in our calendar which this House approved. Therefore, the Motion of Adjournment is part of procedure because we had planned to go on recess by today. This recess should last for several weeks and we are supposed to resume on 28th April, 2015 in accordance with our calendar. The second highlight that I want to make is to thank hon. Senators for having been active in this part of this Session. I am happy to acknowledge that by yesterday, we had passed six Bills which is a record performance. This includes The Fertilizers and Animal Foodstuffs (Amendment) Bill (National Assembly Bill No. 36 of 2013) The Statute Law (Miscellaneous Amendments) Bill(National Assembly Bill No. 33 of 2013), The National Youth Service (Amendment) Bill, (Senate Bill No.26 of 2014), The National Police Service (Amendment) Bill, The Public Service (Principles and Values) Bill (National Assembly No.29 of 2014), and The Environmental Management and Co- ordination (Amendment) Bill (National Assembly BillNo.31 of 2014). Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this is very encouraging. Besides the Bills, we have passed very critical reports and Motions during this Session, including the Reports on the suitability of nominees to the Commission of Inquiry into the Petition to dissolve the County Government of Makueni as well as the Report on the Vetting of Mr. Joseph Boinett as the Inspector-General (IG) of the National Police Service (NPS). So, I just want to tender in my appreciation for the hard work that the Senators have done. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
