Subsequently, by a letter dated 19th May 2020, the Senate Majority Leader requested the Speaker to convene a Special Sitting of the Senate pursuant to Standing Order 30(1), to consider the Motion filed by the Senate Majority Whip for the removal of Sen.

The request by the Senate Majority Leader, was supported by the requisite number of Senators (15 Senators) as required by Standing Order 30 (1). Hon. Senators, following consideration of the request by the Senate Majority Leader, I was satisfied that the request met the requirements of Standing Order 30 (2). Accordingly, and pursuant to Standing Order 30 (3), I issued a Gazette Notice No.3649 of 20th May 2020 in respect of this Special Sitting, which was circulated to all Hon. Senators. As required by Standing Order 30(5), the Gazette Notice specified the business to be transacted at this Sitting being the consideration of a Motion for the removal of Sen.
