Hon. Senators, Article 112 (1) (b) of the Constitution provides that if one House passes an ordinary Bill concerning counties and the second House passes the Bill in an amended form, it shall be referred back to the originating House for reconsideration. Hon. Senators, in this regard, I direct that- i. The Standing Committee on Education considers the National Assembly amendments to the Early Childhood Education Bill (Senate Bills No. 26 of 2018) and report to the Senate; and ii. The Standing Committee on Justice, Legal Affairs and Human Rights considers the National Assembly amendments to the County Attorney Bill (Senate Bills No. 3 of 2018) and the Petition to County Assemblies (Procedure) Bill (Senate Bills No. 22 of 2018) and report to the Senate. Further, pursuant to Standing Order No.159 (1) of the Senate Standing Orders, I also direct that the National Assembly amendments to the said Bills be circulated to all Senators and be listed on the Order Paper for consideration when the Senate next meets. Hon. Senators, Standing Order No. 157 requires that a Bill which originates in the National Assembly be proceeded with by the Senate in the same manner as a Bill introduced in the Senate by way of First Reading in accordance with Standing Order No. 139. In that regard, I direct that the Public Finance Management (Amendment) Bill, (National Assembly Bill No. 51 of 2017) and the National Drought Management Authority (Amendment) Bill (National Assembly Bill No. 26 of 2019) be read a First Time when the Senate next meets. I thank you."
