    "content": " Hon. Senators, pursuant to Standing Order No.52(1), I hereby present to the Senate, the business of the House for the week commencing Tuesday, 15th October, 2019. Hon. Senators, on Tuesday, 15th October, 2019, the Senate Business Committee (SBC) will meet to schedule the business of the Senate for the week. Subject to further directions by the Committee, on Tuesday, 15th October, 2019, the Senate will consider Bills due for Second Reading and Bills at the Committee of the Whole stage. The Senate will also continue with the consideration of business that will not have been concluded in today’s Order Paper. On Wednesday, 16th October and Thursday, 17th October, 2019, the Senate will consider business that will not be concluded on Tuesday and any other business scheduled by the Senate Business Committee (SBC). Hon. Senators, I continue to urge Standing Committees to expedite the consideration of the Bills before them and to Table reports within the stipulated timelines. I emphasize this, particularly, with regard to the Committee on Justice, Legal Affairs and Human Rights, because we have the Statute Law Miscellaneous Amendment which has been pending for far too long and we need to consider it. This House has made a decision before, that when it comes to Statute Miscellaneous Amendments, we must take the work of the Committee more seriously because it cuts across various legislations which, if left to the Majority Leader alone to look at, without the benefit of the Committee, can easily be disadvantageous to this House and to the Members of this House. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
