The Blue Economy, Water and Irrigation has raised concerns over a proposal by the State Department for Blue Economy and Fisheries seeking Kshs. 991 million to facilitate the hosting of the 11th Our Ocean Conference scheduled for June this year.

During a meeting to review Supplementary Estimates 1 for FY 2025/26, Members questioned the size of the allocation and sought clarification on the breakdown of the expenditure.

The National Assembly, through the Departmental Committee on Administration and Internal Security, invites members of the public to submit memoranda on the following two Bills:

1. The Registration of Persons (Amendment) Bill (National Assembly Bill No. 52 of 2025):

The Parliament of Kenya is set to host the 3rd National Serjeant-at-Arms Conference, from 26th to 29th March 2026 in Machakos County. 

The event brings together legislative security professionals from across the country to deliberate on strengthening legislative support functions.

The National Assembly  has approved the Division of Revenue Bill, 2026, setting the stage for the allocation of nationally raised revenue between the national and county governments for the 2026/2027 financial year.

The Senate Committee on Education, Chaired by Senator Betty Montet, today held a consultative meeting with Embu Governor H.E. Cecily Mbarire and her County Executive Team to deliberate on the current status of Early Childhood Development Education (ECDE) and Vocational Training Centres (VTCs) within Embu County.

The Sports (Amendment) Bill, 2026 has been introduced in the National Assembly. The Bill, sponsored by Hon. Irene Mayaka, seeks to criminalise the manipulation of sporting competitions and strengthen institutions responsible for safeguarding integrity in sports.

If passed, the proposed law will, for the first time, provide a clear legal framework to deal with match manipulation, an issue that has increasingly threatened the credibility of sporting competitions both locally and internationally.
