In the Statement the Committee should: (i) Explain why foreigners married to Kenyans have not been conferred with Kenyan citizenship as per Article 13(2) and 15(1) of the Constitution. (ii) State when women in Taita Taveta County mostly from Tanzania as well as other foreign countries who are married to Kenyans will be conferred with Kenyan citizenship upon verification of their marital status documents. (iii) Give a list of the number of women who have applied for conferment of citizenship, how many have been conferred with the said citizenship, how many are pending and when they will be given that citizenship status. I thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker."
