    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, while the law mandates Kenya Anti-Corruption Commission (KACC) to recover resources lost to corrupt public officials, it does not provide how the Commission should deal with such assets. To facilitate the fight against corruption, I propose to amend the law to enable KACC to remit all public resources recovered to the Consolidated Fund or to the Permanent Secretary, Treasury, as may be appropriate. This measure will go a long way to ensure that assets recovered are protected. The Director-General of the Public Procurement and Oversight Authority (PPOA) does not get information from law enforcement institutions with investigative mandate for consideration to debar firms that get involved in fraudulent public procurement practices. In order to address this and to deepen the war against corruption, I propose to amend the Public Procurement and Disposal Act to require that the Director-General to consider recommendations from institutions such as KACC, CID and the Controller and Auditor-General for debarment."
