    "content": "Mr. Speaker, this is the Statement of the Senate Majority Leader on the business of the Senate for the coming week, pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order No.45. Pursuant to Standing Order No.28 (3) I will, at the appropriate time as listed in today’s Order Paper, move a Motion for the Senate to proceed on a 10-day recess beginning this Friday, 17th June, 2016 as per the gazetted Senate Calendar. We shall resume sittings on Tuesday 28th June, 2016. Allow me to thank and commend you all for the good work done so far since we resumed from the last recess on 31st May, 2016, which culminated in among others, the passage of the following crucial Bills: The Anti-Doping (Amendment) Bill (National Assembly Bill No.17 of 2016), The Political Parties (Amendment) Bill (National Assembly Bill No.2 of 2016) and The County Allocation of Revenue Bill (Senate Bill No.3 of 2016.) I am certain that we shall continue in the same spirit when we resume, as we shall be considering the Committee of the Whole of critical Bills that are subject to a constitutional deadline. These Bills include: The Forest Conservation and Management Bill, The Protection of Traditional Knowledge and Cultural Expression Bill, the Natural Resources (Classes of Transactions Subject to Ratification) Bill (National Assembly Bill No.54 of 2015), the Health Bill and The Petroleum (Exploration, Development and Production) Bill. Hon. Senators, I take this opportunity to wish you a restful short recess, subject to the said approval. I hereby lay the Statement on the Table. Thank you."
