"content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I rise pursuant to Standing Order No.48 (1) to seek a Statement from the Standing Committee on National Security, Defence and Foreign Relations regarding the ongoing free trade agreement negotiations between Kenya and the United States of America (USA). In the response, the Committee should address the following- (i) Examine the possibility of enabling Kenyans who are trained as caregivers, nurses and other related skills, who are willing to travel to the USA to provide essential services in Washington, Texas and Massachusetts states among others, where a deficit in the cited areas has been empirically established. (ii) Outline the measures that have been put in place, if any, to ensure that such Kenyans are accorded preferential treatment with regard to access to entry visas and other attendant requirements. (iii) State the measures that we will put in place following these negotiations to ensure that Kenyans in general are also facilitated with regards to accessing entry visas into the USA going forward."
