(Prof.) Kindiki): Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I beg to move:- That, The Petroleum (Exploration, Development and Production) Bill (National Assembly Bill No.44 of 2015) be now read a Second Time. This is one of the Bills that have a constitutional deadline of 27th August, 2016. As the Senators know, we are doing very well so far with regard to the Bills that have come to us in the last few weeks; especially the nearly two-dozen Bills that have constitutional deadlines. We hope that when this Bill goes to the Committee on Energy, they will propose any amendments that we need to consider. Especially, issues of interest to counties may need to be spotlighted. This Bill modernizes our petroleum exploration, development and production operations. The law which is in place is very old. I remember when the Senator for Meru was the Minister for Energy, he tried to initiate some of the things that I see in this Bill. He had even formed an advisory committee, where I served as a Member. I can see some of the things that he was trying to breathe life into, like developing a production sharing The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate"
