Early Childhood Development Education (ECDE) in Migori County came under sharp focus as the Senate Committee on Education engaged H.E. Governor Dr. Ochilo Ayacko and his County Executive Team on the status of ECDE and Vocational Training Centres (VTCs).

The Senate Committee on Roads, Transportation and Infrastructure, chaired by Marsabit Senator Mohamed Chute, has conducted an inspection visit to assess the progress of the ongoing construction of an ultra-modern convention centre at Bomas of Kenya.

The new international convention facility, to be known as the Bomas of Kenya International Conference Centre, is expected to be completed by September this year. Once complete, it will be the first of its kind in the East African region.

The Senate of Kenya has unveiled four landmark publications set to transform legislative practice and research, offering lawmakers, scholars, and practitioners an authoritative reference on parliamentary processes.

Launched with fanfare at Parliament Buildings, the publications provide in-depth analyses of the Senate’s role in resource allocation, mediation, and impeachment proceedings, alongside a comprehensive account of the evolution of its rules since its inaugural sitting in 2013.

The Senate of Kenya invites members of the public and stakeholders to participate in the legislative process by submitting views on the Constitution of Kenya (Amendment) Bill, 2026 (Senate Bills No. 7 of 2026).

The Bill proposes amendments to constitutional and electoral provisions, including restrictions on former county governors seeking elective office within five years of leaving office.

The Senate Standing Committee on Devolution and Intergovernmental Relations has resolved to summon county governors to address a mounting governance crisis threatening the operations of municipal boards across the 47 devolved units. 

This decision follows a damning testimony from Kisumu County municipal board chairpersons, who alerted the Senate to a total breakdown in the working relationship between their boards and the County Executive.
