    "content": "Before we continue, so as to allay any fears that you may be having, Prof. Nyikal, I would like to bring to your attention the contents of the Gazette Notice that called for this Special Sitting. I do not know if you were here when I communicated to the House on this matter this morning. Clearly, as per the relevant Standing Order, as you said, we specified in the Gazette Notice what we were coming to consider. The Gazette Notice, a copy of which I am holding, clearly states the matters to be considered as follows: Special Motion for appointment of persons to the office of chairperson and members of the Ethics and Anti- Corruption Commission; consideration of Special Motion for appointment of persons as Cabinet Secretaries; consideration of Special Motion for appointment of persons as Principal Secretaries; and consideration of Bills to implement various Articles of the Constitution with enactment deadline of 27th August 2016. That is the point where the debate that is ongoing now is. As I indicated in my Communication earlier on, we will be considering parts of the Bills to implement various Articles of the Constitution with a deadline of 27th August 2016. Remember that these are Bills which will be going to the Senate. We are trying to make sure that there is ample time for them to be dealt with by the two Houses. Thank you."
