Against the breathtaking backdrop of the Maasai Mara, the Senate Futures Caucus convened its inaugural Strategic Foresight Retreat, bringing together Senators, development partners, and foresight experts for a two-day dialogue on embedding future-oriented thinking into Kenya’s legislative processes.

The retreat, themed “Charting a Future-Oriented Course for Kenya”, aimed to equip lawmakers with the tools and perspectives necessary to anticipate long-term challenges and craft responsive, evidence-based legislation.

The Senate Committee on Labour and Social Welfare, chaired by Sen Julius Murgor (West Pokot) today heard responses from both law firm Kaplan & Stratton and Advocate Harrison Kinyanjui in an ongoing probe over unpaid compensation to former Kenya Breweries Limited (KBL) employees. The hearing, which follows a previous tense engagement with the Advocates Complaints Commission (ACC), aimed to clarify issues raised in a petition to the Senate brought by 125 aggrieved former KBL staff.

The Senate Committee on Labour and Social Welfare has taken issue with the Advocates Complaints Commission (ACC) over what it termed a shallow and unsatisfactory investigation into complaints raised by former Kenya Breweries Limited (KBL) employees against their former advocate, Harrison Kinyanjui.
