    "content": " Hon. Senators, as indicated in today’s Order Paper, three Bills have been read a First Time. Standing Order No.140(1) requires that having been read a First Time, a Bill be committed to the relevant Standing Committee. Accordingly, the following Bills are hereby committed to Committees as follows- The Community Health Services Bill is committed to the Standing Committee on Health. The County Allocation of Revenue Bill is committed to the Standing Committee on Finance and Budget. Hon. Senators, Standing Order No.140 (2) provides that despite Paragraph 1, the Speaker may direct that a particular Bill be committed to such a committee as the Speaker may determine. Consequently, I hereby direct that The Pandemic Response and Management Bill (Senate Bills No. 6 of 2020) be committed to the Ad Hoc Committee on the COVID-19 Situation in Kenya. Pursuant to Standing Order No.145, the three committees are required to facilitate public participation on their respective Bills and take into account the views of the public when they make reports to the Senate. I thank you. Proceed, Chairperson."
