"content": "The 14 will be considered during the recess period when the Committee is going for a retreat. Hon. Temporary Speaker, in the process of considering these Petitions, the Committee follows a structured approach, which includes briefing and analysis, meetings with petitioners, engagement with relevant stakeholders, potential site visits and public participation, compilation of findings, report writing, consideration and adoption of the report, and ultimately, tabling of the report and notification and delivery of the report to the petitioner(s) pursuant to Standing Order 227(3). The Committee has encountered various challenges in processing petitions, which are required to be addressed within a statutory timeline of 90 days. Key among these challenges include: rescheduling of meetings by key stakeholders and witnesses who are pivotal in gathering evidence and finding solutions to the issues raised by the petitioners. This has occasioned delays in processing petitions and hinders adherence to the prescribed statutory timelines. Additionally, Members of the Committee also attend Departmental or other Select The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor"

"content": "Committee meetings which often overlap with the committee sittings hence lack of quorum for most of the meetings. Despite these challenges, the Committee has implemented innovative administrative measures to expedite the processing of petitions and requesting permission from the Hon. Speaker to convene while the House is in session, pursuant to Standing Order 186(2). Attached herewith is a detailed list of petitions committed to the Committee for the House to note. I would like to express my appreciation to the Office of the Speaker and the Office of the Clerk for the support in facilitating the Public Petitions Committee, which is an inaugural committee established at the onset of the 13th Parliament. In Addition, Hon. Temporary Speaker, the Committee appreciates your kind consideration. Recently this week, you granted the Committee permission to sit even when the House is sitting and during recess. You also allowed us the use of Room 12 in the New Wing for the Committee meetings. It is easily accessible to Persons Living with Disabilities (PwDs) and on several occasions we have had to hear from them. Finally, Hon. Temporary Speaker, I extend my gratitude to the Committee Members, Office of the Clerk of the National Assembly and the Committee secretariat staff for their facilitation and diligent commitment in consideration of matters brought before this House. I hereby submit. Thank you, once again, Hon. Temporary Speaker."

Janet Sitienei, who sought a Statement pursuant to Standing Order 44(2)(c) on the poor relationship between Kenya Ordnance Factories Corporation (KOFC) and the neighbouring community. She specifically raised the following concerns in her Statement request: 1. What prompted the officers of the Kenya Defence Forces (KDF) to use live ammunition on unarmed residents? 2. What measures is the Ministry of Defence taking to ensure amicable coexistence between KDF and residents? 3. What steps has the KDF in Eldoret instituted to address the loss of lives, especially minors who have died in trenches around the Barracks since 2021?"
