    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Speaker. In seconding this straightforward Motion, I want to point out that while seeking the exemption from the Standing Orders, it is a requirement that the Motion states the objective of bringing back the Bill before the expiry of the six-month period. As the Leader of the Majority Party has put it, and as you have well stated while making your Communication, it is for the purposes of aligning the provisions of the Anti-Doping Act, 2016 with the UNESCO policy against doping in sports. It is very urgent because we are all aware that there will be Olympics in Rio, Brazil in the next two months. Therefore, it is of necessity that this House considers this within the six-month period for us to allow our athletes to participate in that great event. All of us would imagine the Olympics without the Kenyan team. Surely, it would not be colourful and tasteful. Therefore, this House needs to play its role in ensuring that our athletes are not locked out of that very important world event. I beg to second."
