    "content": "Hon. Deputy Speaker, I beg to move the following Procedural Motion: THAT, pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order No.30(3)(a), this House resolves to extend the sitting time of the House until conclusion of the business appearing under Order No.14 on today’s Order Paper. Hon. Deputy Speaker, Order No.14 is the debate on election of Members to the East African Legislative Assembly (EALA). As we were starting our business today, the Speaker brought it to our attention the fact that, as Members of Parliament, we should endeavour to ensure that the issue of what he called ‘ theluthi’, which he classified as “Duale Two” Bill, is debated. He urged us to extend our sitting time as much as possible to ensure that we also conclude the business on election of members to the EALA this evening to enable us submit the names of our Members to EALA next week. It is important that Members consider extension of our sitting time so that we do away with the issue of EALA. I can see the Leader of Government Business grumbling. His motive is to push this matter as far as possible. However, it is important that we ask Members to agree to an extension of time.
