The National Assembly Departmental Committee on Regional Integration supports the Ministry of East African Community (EAC), Arid and Semi-Arid Lands (ASALs), and Regional Development's plans to incorporate operationalization of virtual weighbridges in order to increase transparency and accountability in weighbridges operations.

In a consultative meeting with the Principal Secretary of EAC affairs, Mr. Abdi Dubart,  Members wanted to know how the Ministry was addressing delays and corruption at weighbridges.

The Decentralised Funds Accounts Committee led by the Vice-Chairperson Hon. Gertrude Mbeyu (Kilifi County) conducted an inspection visit of the stalled Lurambi National Government Constituency Development Fund (NG-CDF) office block in Lurambi Constituency, Kakamega County.

Before visiting the stalled project in Kakamega town, the Committee paid a courtesy call to the Kakamega Governor, Hon. Fernandes Barasa. Governor Barasa commended the legislators for their oversight role and urged them to be steadfast in ensuring that public funds are not misappropriated.
