In the statement, the committee should- (1) Provide reasons for the lack of proper markings and adequate signage on several major roads and highways in Kenya, which has been linked to several reported accidents. (2) Explain why the contractor did not redraw the necessary road markings on Mombasa Road after carpeting the road. (3) Explain why the drainage system on the Nairobi Expressway failed during the heavy rains experienced in March, 2024, resulting in flooding of the expressway and subsequent overflow onto Mombasa Road. (4) Outline any steps taken by the Ministry of Roads and Transport to address the aforementioned road safety concerns, stating when all restoration works on Mombasa Road, including the redrawing of markings, are expected to be completed. (5) Evaluate the state of preparedness of the relevant Government agencies under the Ministry of Roads and Transport in responding to heavy rains and mitigate the risk of road flooding. Thank you."

"content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, pursuant to Standing Order No.57(1), I hereby present the business of the Senate for the week commencing Tuesday, 30th April, 2024. By the close of business last week, 34 Bills were pending conclusion in the Senate. On Tuesday, 23rd April, 2024, five Bills underwent Division at the Second Reading stage. Two of the Bills are scheduled in the Order Paper for the Committee of the Whole stage at Orders Nos. 8 and 9. I urge Hon. Senators to remain in the House for Divisions. That being said, however, the number of Bills before the Senate is still high. I urge that committees expeditiously consider the Bills and table reports within the 30-day timeline as provided for under Standing Order No.148(1). This will in turn facilitate the Senate to consider the Bills at the Second Reading stage with the benefit of the input from the committees. With respect to other business before the Senate, 16 Motions are pending conclusion while 24 Petitions are pending consideration by the respective Standing Committees, of which 18 are due for reporting. Additionally, 317 Statements are pending before the Standing Committees. It is imperative that Committee Chairpersons take the lead in ensuring business pending before their Committees is concluded within the timelines specified in the Standing Orders. The Senate Business Committee (SBC) will meet on Tuesday, 30th April, 2024 to consider the business for the week. The tentative business for Tuesday as indicated in the notice paper include– (a) Bills at the Second Reading stage- (i) The Heritage and Museums Bill (Senate Bills No. 8 of 2023). (ii) The Agriculture and Food (Amendment) Authority Bill (Senate Bills No. 13 of 2023). (iii) The County Hall of Fame Bill (Senate Bills No. 18 of 2023). (iv) The Rice Bill (Senate Bills No. 19 of 2023). (v) The Public Holidays (Amendment) Bill (Senate Bills No. 31 of 2023). (vi) The County Assembly Services (Amendment) Bill (Senate Bills No. 34 of 2023). (vii) The Public Transport (Motorcycle Regulation) Bill (Senate Bills No. 38 of 2023).
