    "content": "(b) The Senate also considered two Memoranda on Bills which had been passed by both Houses and submitted to His Excellency the President for assent. This was in respect of the Public Audit Bill (National Assembly Bill No.38 of 2014) and the Public Procurement and Asset Disposal Bill (National Assembly Bill No.40 of 2014). (c) Ninety six Motions were tabled, 57 of which were deliberated upon and concluded; (d) Thirty three Petitions were presented out which nine were reported on; (e) One hundred and fifty nine Statements were requested from the Chairpersons of Committees out of which 95 were responded to. This is just but part of what the Senate achieved in the last Session which indicates a marked improvement in volume and the quality of the business transacted over the previous Sessions. Much more, as you are undoubtedly aware, was achieved through respective committees as the House firmly and unequivocally took up its rightful place as the guardian angel of devolution. Hon. Senators, in continuing to exercise our mandate as the House of equity, it is my expectation that we will see more business transacted by the House during this Fourth Session. This Session should see more consolidation and reflection as it is a turning point. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes"
