Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I stand to support this Bill. Extension officers are key to our farming systems. I got the opportunity to work as an extension officer for a very long time. In the olden days, food production was adequate because the extension officers were in place and...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I was eagerly waiting for Order No.15 so that I could move the Bill. However, let me say two things about the policy. It is important that we have a policy on the environment because it is where we live. The environment affects everybody on...

Hon. Deputy Speaker, I beg to lay the following Paper on the Table: The third Report of the Select Committee on National Cohesion and Equal Opportunity on employment diversity audit. Thank you.

Hon. Deputy Speaker, I beg to give notice of the following Motion: THAT the House adopts the third Report of the Select Committee on National Cohesion and Equal Opportunity on employment diversity audit in public institutions laid on the table of the House on Wednesday, 30th April 2025. Thank you.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. I also rise to add my voice to the Statement Request. It is crucial that we look for jobs for our youths. Currently, there is a large number of youths who have completed university education. We also have many youths...

Thank you for your guidance, Hon. Temporary Speaker. The only thing I would add is that as the Chairperson considers this issue, he should be very objectified in ensuring the safety, security and proper working environment for Kenyans going abroad. These are parameters that should be met and adequately addressed....

Okay.

Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. I support the report of the committee. This is one of the most diverse commissions the Public Service Commission has ever composed. From the national cohesion and equal opportunity point of view, we have someone from the North Eastern...

Thank you, Hon. Chairman. There is no Chair on the list we are discussing today. So, I am talking about nominees who have just been named here. We have no Chair here. The ones I am looking at are representatives of this country. As I was saying, I sincerely thank...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I also join the rest of the members in inviting you and His Excellency, the President, to the Pastoralists Leadership Summit. Pastoral land makes up over 70 per cent of our country, and we will showcase many future opportunities there. Welcome, and I am confident you...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. I beg to reply. The Committee not only looked at employment on ethnic basis, but it also looked at employment diversity in public institutions and not private because the Constitution is slightly silent on the mandate of this Committee as...

The KRA is the first. I think this Committee raised the first red flag. There were even attempts by bigger authorities to stop the KRA from coming to this Committee. We did it ultimately. We were the first to raise the alarm and it went to the papers. That is...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I stand to support this very important request for statement. I sympathise with the Executive, and specifically principal secretaries and cabinet secretaries, because they are always in Parliament. They are now being forced to do their work in the evenings and during late hours because...

No, I do not want to speak on this Motion, Hon. Speaker.

Yes, I am, Hon. Temporary Speaker. At least, we should also recognise the fact that some chairpersons are present.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I beg to move the following Motion. THAT, this House adopts the Second Report of the Select Committee on National Cohesion and Equal Opportunity on the Employment Diversity Audit in Public Institutions, laid on the Table of the House on Thursday, 21st March 2024. Hon....

It is unfortunate, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I have evidence of having circulated a communication to all the Committee Members that our important Report would be discussed today. I requested them to be present.

My Deputy is Hon. Liza Chelule. The Members are 20 now. They were 21. One of them lost an election petition. I can provide the list. A Committee of 20 Members with nobody from the Committee to second a Motion on such an important matter that is touching on Article...

Hon. Deputy Speaker. I beg to lay the following Paper on the Table: Report of the Select Committee on National Cohesion and Equal Opportunity on its consideration of the National Cohesion and Integration Bill, (National Assembly Bill, No 74 of 2023) . I thank you.

Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for this opportunity. I stand to support the Motion. From the point of view of national cohesion, integration, and equal opportunity, I now see some good light at the end of the tunnel. This is where we need to go. Kenyans are Kenyans regardless of the...
