"content": "Hon. Millie Odhiambo, you have raised a very pertinent issue. I have had occasion to suggest that there be a meeting between the technical teams serving the respective Committees of Procedure and House Rules of the National Assembly and the Senate, more particularly, because the Constitution is very clear in Article 109 (5) as to which House money Bills may originate from. I have suggested that to a number of Senate leadership members to explore the possibility of co-sponsorship certain Bills. But in order for that to happen, we need to work in conjunction with our colleagues in the Senate with a view to making concurrent provisions in the Standing Orders of both Houses. That is because on the face of it, there are some Bills that have come from the Senate which have been lost for the simple reason that they originated there and yet, the Constitution is clear that if a Bill has a money effect, it cannot originate from there."
