With regard to the administrative arrangements to facilitate public participation, the House Business Committee and the National Assembly General Legislative Caucus also resolved that the countrywide public participation be undertaken from Monday, 5th May 2025 to Wednesday, 7th May 2025. Consequently, I direct the Clerk to communicate the full details of the programme for the information of the public, through print and electronic media advertisements on Monday, 21st April 2025. I advise all of you to avail yourselves to spearhead and participate in this noble activity. The Clerk is hereby directed to organise a Kamukunji on Tuesday, 29th April 2025, where Members will be apprised on the modalities of the public participation exercise to be conducted in all the counties and constituencies. Hon. Members, you will recall that we directed that your constituency offices are official parliamentary offices. These are the designated venues where public participation shall be conducted. I do not wish to hear that any of you held public participation sessions in hotel rooms, behind shops, or in bars within the villages. That shall not be acceptable. Conduct these sessions from your constituency offices, which are recognised as parliamentary offices. Thank you for your cooperation in advance."

Geoffrey Kariuki Kiringa Ruku, Member of Parliament for Mbeere North Constituency, as the Cabinet Secretary for Public Service, Human Capital Development and Special Programmes. I have since received a letter from the Member, dated 16th April 2025, tendering his resignation as the Member of Parliament for Mbeere North Constituency, effective from 10.00 p.m. on Wednesday, 16th April 2025. This arose out of the gazettement of his appointment as a Cabinet Secretary vide Gazette Notice No.4834 dated 16th April 2025. Indeed, today morning, the Hon. Ruku took Oath of Office as the Cabinet Secretary for Public Service, Human Capital Development and Special Programmes. In this regard, I will now proceed to execute the necessary actions required by law to declare the seat of Member for Parliament for Mbeere North Constituency vacant, so as to unlock the processes of filling the vacancy. On my behalf and that of the House, I wish Hon. Geoffrey Ruku the best in his new assignment in the Executive. The House, and, indeed, the general public, is accordingly informed. Thank you."
