    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I beg to move:- THAT, pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order No.28, this House adjourns its sittings until Tuesday, 9th February, 2016 in accordance with the calendar of the Assembly (Regular sessions). Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, at the outset I would like to thank Kenyans who played a big role in ensuring that Parliament discharges its duties. As you are aware, this year we received high profile visitors. In July, 2015 we hosted President Barrack Obama. His visit has sent a message internationally about Kenya’s ability despite the terrorist threats that it has to deal with. He has confirmed that Kenya is safe and stable. He has also confirmed that Kenya has a very strong economy in this region and that it is first among equals in Africa. Last month, His Holiness, Pope Francis, the voice of many Catholics in our country or all--- Nothing is wrong with me. Let me change that: He is the voice of Christ. He spoke to the youth, the political leadership, the Government and the poor people. He showed that you can lead a simple life that is not corrupt. He had soft spot for the poor and the young. He talked to the leaders and the nation as a whole. During the Third Session and the third part we passed many Bills both public and private. We passed the following Bills: The Court of Appeal (Organization and Administration) Bill, 2015; The Magistrates’ Courts Bill, 2015; the Statute Law (Miscellaneous Amendments) Bill, 2015; the Small Claims Court Bill, 2015; The High Court Organization and Administration Bill, 2015; Private Bills; the 2015/2016 Financial Year Budget; the Finance Bill; the Tax Procedures Bill; and above all two critical important Bills, that is, the Companies Act and the Insolvency Act. We also debated several Committee reports and Senate Bills. We adopted a number of sessional papers. Today, we concluded the Physical Planning Bill, 2015, which is a constitutional Bill. When we resume from recess, Inshallah, the House Business Committee will give priority to all the constitutional Bills which have since been published and read the First time. We also have deliberated the National Government Constituencies Development Fund Bill, 2015."
