    "content": " Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I beg to move the following Motion: THAT, this House adopts the Report of the Select Committee on Parliamentary Broadcasting and Library on the Formulation of Parliamentary Broadcasting Channels, laid on the Table of the House on Thursday, December 03, 2020. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, the Select Committee on Parliamentary Broadcasting and Library is established pursuant to the National Assembly Standing Order No. 212D and is mandated to, inter alia, “advise the House on matters related to broadcasting of the Houseproceedings”. Since 2008, the Parliamentary Broadcasting Unit has played a critical function of disseminating information on the role of Parliament in legislation, oversight and representation. Through a contractual agreement with the Kenya Broadcasting Corporation (KBC), Parliament has enabled the public to receive real time debates in the plenary House proceedings of the two Houses of Parliament. However, due to Kenya Broadcasting Corporation (KBC) limited scope of coverage and broadcast time, it has been noted that Parliament needs to explore the idea of establishing its own broadcasting channel to air plenary and Committee proceedings in both Houses, among other productions."
