"content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to move the following Motion:- THAT, pursuant to Standing Order No. 31(3)(a), the Senate resolves to extend its sitting time today, Thursday, 14th December, 2017, until the conclusion of the business appearing on the Order Paper. The reasons are obvious. We suspended the House earlier. I would have moved this Motion before 6.00p.m. However, on the advice of the Clerk and yourself, since the House was in suspension, there was no way we were going to move it. The reason for extension of this time is because we still have a lot of pending business which includes approval of the Cash Disbursement Schedule to the counties. We are also waiting for the Message from the National Assembly on the EALA election without which, the process would not have been completed. We also need to approve the Members who will serve in various Committees for without which, the House will not function properly during the long period of recess. This is rather obvious. Since there is no time, I do not want to spend so much time moving this Procedural Motion. I invite the Senate Minority Leader to second."
