    "content": "Hon. Senators, Tuesday, 1st March, 2016 being the last day for Parliament to debate and pass the Budget Policy Statement (BPS), pursuant to Section 25(7) of The Public Finance Management Act, the Senate is expected to debate and adopt the report of the Committee on Finance, Commerce and Budget on the BPS. So, we expect the BPS report by the Committee on Finance, Commerce and Budget to be given utmost priority because Tuesday is the last day which Parliament must debate and pass the BPS. On Wednesday, the Senate will continue with any business that will not be concluded during the Tuesday sitting, especially Bills that are at various stages and any other business that will be scheduled by the RBC. On Thursday, the Senate will consider Bills at Second Reading. It will also deliberate on Motions and any other business that may be scheduled by the RBC. I take this opportunity to thank you Senators for your continued availability to deal with the business of this House. I thank you particularly for a job well done yesterday. We passed a number of pending business that has been before this House for a while. I think we should continue with that spirit. As we said at the beginning of the Session, this is the last full Session that we have. The Fifth Session has been truncated by the General Election date which comes early. So, I hope that we will do our best so that we can give Kenyans value for money. I request that you show the same spirit next week so that we transact the various businesses that will be scheduled for that week Thank you."
