    "content": " Thank you. For the benefit of the House, I would like to state that the Senate Majority Leader had sought to move a Motion of Adjournment to discuss the very unfortunate issue of Garissa, which has happened today and all of us know about it. The Senate Minority Leader had also brought a Motion of Adjournment for my approval again on the same issue of Garissa, which is of great concern to all of us. You are aware, just like the Senate Majority Leader has said, that we are going to have a Motion of Adjournment of the House as per our Calendar, until the 28th of April, 2015. Hon. Members, you know that after a Motion of Adjournment is moved and concluded, the House adjourns and goes away; nothing else can be discussed. We cannot, therefore, carry on with the Motion of Adjournment on Garissa if we are going to do a Motion of Adjournment of the House and vice versa . However, the Motion of the Adjournment of the House is in our calendar, so we have to deal with it. So, we have agreed that it shall be moved as the Senate Majority Leader has done. I am going to allow time for us to discuss that very important issue under the point of order raised by the Senate Majority Leader. The Senate Majority and Minority Leaders will have equal time to discuss that issue, after which hon. Senators will have a period not exceeding 5.30 p.m. today within which to discuss that issue. After that, then, we can proceed with the normal Business of the House. I think that is sufficient direction on that issue."
