    "content": "Subject to further directions by the SBC, the Senate will consider Bills due for Second Reading and Committees of the Whole on Tuesday, 11th June, 2019.The Senate will also continue with consideration of the business that will not be concluded in today’s Order Paper. On Wednesday 12th and Thursday 13th June, 2019, the Senate will consider business that will not have been concluded on Tuesday, and any other business scheduled by the SBC. Madam Temporary Speaker, there are 37 Bills pending consideration by the Senate. There are 21 Bills pending at the Committee of the Whole and 16 Bills pending at the Second Reading stage. I continue urging all Senators to be present in the House, so that we can expeditiously conclude the above mentioned business. I also take this opportunity to remind the party Whips to ensure that the House has the requisite numbers to undertake Division on the Bills and Motions affecting counties. Madam Temporary Speaker, I continue to appeal to the standing committees to expedite consideration of Bills referred to them and table reports in the House. This will enrich debate at the Second Reading stage and facilitate the House to navigate the Committee of the Whole. Madam Temporary Speaker, Standing Order No.51 (1) (b) provides for the quarterly reports to the House by Committees relating to their activities, including Bills, Statements and Petitions considered and inquiries undertaken. I take this opportunity to inform all the Committee chairpersons to prepare a detailed report of the Committee activities, which will be tabled in the Senate after the short recess at the end of June, 2019. I hereby lay the Statement on the Table of the Senate."
