    "content": "Hon. Members, I have a Communication to make to guide us on consideration of the four Senate Bills that are before us. Hon. Members, as you may recall, on 4th July 2019, I conveyed to the House a Message from the Senate regarding the passage of the following Senate Bills- (i) The County Roads, Walkways and Parking Bays Bill (Senate Bill No.18 of 2018); (ii) The County Outdoor Advertising Control Bill (Senate Bill No.19 of 2018); (iii) The County Law Compliance and Enforcement Bill (Senate Bill No.25 of 2018); and, (iv) The County Wards (Equitable Development) Bill (Senate Bill No.34 of 2018). Hon. Members, following the First Reading of the four Bills on 30th July 2019, I undertook to pronounce my opinion with respect to the ‘Money Bill’ effects of the four Bills, pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order No.143(2), which provides as follows- “Following First Reading, the Speaker shall, within reasonable time, pronounce his or her opinion contemplated under Article 114(2) of the Constitution.” Therefore, I have made a determination that the four Bills do not fall within the meaning of a “Money Bill.” As such, they may proceed for Second Reading in the same manner as a Bill originating in the National Assembly as provided for under Standing Order No.143(3). In this regard, the said Bills are hereby referred to the respective Committees for consideration as follows – (i)The County Roads, Walkways and Parking Bays Bill (Senate Bill No.18 of 2018) – the Departmental Committee on Transport, Public Works and Housing; (ii) The County Outdoor Advertising Control Bill (Senate Bill No. 19 of 2018) – the Departmental Committee on Communication, Information and Innovation; (iii) The County Law Compliance and Enforcement Bill (Senate Bill No.25 of 2018) – the Departmental Committee on Administration and National Security; and, The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
