    "content": " We are not rushing because we have a lot of business which we must conclude today; because this is the day gazetted for that business. Just to highlight the two messages I read, I thank Sen. Hassan for reminding us of some of our own utterances and that is true. Records are stubborn and so we are on record but on that particular matter, Members can remind the Senate Majority Leader to make that suggestion because he has not negated it. You did not follow the proceedings of the National Assembly when they met last. We gave the names and they have also given the names for a joint committee to resolve the matter as provided for in the Standing Orders. So, that matter is on course and alive and it should not be an issue. That is the position now. Whether they amend or not, it is a legitimate process which we must accept. Secondly, one of the messages is about a Bill for a matter affecting counties. We have argued that this is a legitimate business of the Senate and that is what they have done it. The second Bill is actually our own Bill which is the County Assembly Services Bill. So, that is business that must also come back to us. So, under the circumstances, all is well. Let us proceed."
