    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. First of all, I congratulate the two Committees for using Article 113 of our Constitution, which is the provision for mediation. If you look closely at that Article and the one immediately below it – on the Money Bills – you will realize that we have had a headache in trying to agree on the Division of Revenue to our counties. The drafters of our Constitution had in mind that there would come a time in such a bicameral situation where people may not agree on the order, the Bill and the precedence that the Bill should take in order to become law. However, we now have a very clear indication that where there is willingness on both sides to resolve the dispute, that willingness results in a mediated version of the Bill."
