    "content": "In light of these directions, the Senate, therefore shall proceed with debate on the Second Reading of the Constitution of Kenya (Amendment) Bill, (Senate Bill No.16 of 2015). After the conclusion of the debate on the Bill and before the Question for Second Reading of the Bill is put in terms of Standing Order No.131 (1) of the Senate Standing Orders, the Speaker shall make a ruling as to whether the Bill falls within the ambit of Article 255(1) of the Constitution, and therefore, whether it is one that would require ratification by the people of Kenya in a referendum. Finally, it is evident that there is need in the future to set out this procedure in our Standing Orders. I therefore, direct that the Rules and Business Committee at the appropriate time consider this matter and propose suitable amendments to the Standing Orders. I thank you. Sen. Omondi, proceed."
