Kenya's legislative machinery has shifted into high gear, with the volume of business transacted in Parliament more than doubling in just three years, a milestone that Principal Secretary Dr Aurelia Rono says reflects deepening coordination between the Executive and the Legislature.

Senate Minority Leader, Sen Stewart Madzayo has called for the nation to conduct a candid review of persistent challenges that have dogged the implementation of devolution, especially sectors that require coordinated action across both National and County Governments. 

The Senator cited the key areas as the uneven county-level implementation of Universal Health Care, systemic threats to agriculture and national food security, disparities in Early Childhood Development Education between counties and the need for more effective intergovernmental relations.
