    "content": "Hon. Speaker, pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order No.44(2) (a), I rise to give Statement on behalf of the House Business Committee (HBC). The Committee met this week at the rise of the House to give priority to business that will be considered. Without anticipating debate, I wish to note that the House is scheduled to proceed on a short recess, commencing tomorrow, in accordance with the Calendar of the House. As a result of this, the HBC has not scheduled any business for next week. After the recess, we will consider the Second Reading of the Computer and Cybercrimes Bill, 2017, should we not conclude it today. We will also consider the Irrigation Bill, 2017, the Kenya Coastguard Service Bill, 2017 and the Energy Bill, 2017. We will also consider, in the Committee of the whole House, the Kenya Roads Bill, 2017 and the Copyright (Amendment) Bill, 2017. I urge the relevant Chairs of the committees that are dealing with these Bills to make sure that during this 10-day recess, they conclude the reports of their various committees on the said Bills. I urge all the Chairs of the departmental committees to expedite consideration of the Bills and table the reports when we resume. In addition, I encourage all the Members with amendments to the Bills to submit the same to the Office of the Clerk for consideration before the Bills are scheduled for the Committee of the whole House when we resume. Also, to be scheduled is the Report of the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs on the vetting of nominee for appointment to the Judicial Service Commission (JSC) and many other pending committee reports. On questions before committees, the following Cabinet secretaries are scheduled to appear before committees on Tuesday, 10th April 2018: (1) The Cabinet Secretary for Health before the Departmental Committee on Health to answer questions from Hon. Beatrice Nkatha and Hon. David Gikaria.

Peter Kaluma, in the Mini Chamber, County Hall, at 11 a.m. (3) The Cabinet Secretary for Transport, Infrastructure, Housing and Urban Development at 10 O’clock before the Departmental Committee on Transport, Public Works and Housing to The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only.
