    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I beg to move that the Kenya Citizenship and Immigration (Amendment) Bill (Senate Bills No.33 of 2021) be read a Second Time. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I have brought an amendment to this Bill seeking to change the law and introduce a raft of changes. One of the changes I am proposing is that we compel the Cabinet Secretary (CS) in charge of matters foreign affairs to establish a desk that will strictly deal with matters concerning the people of diaspora. Allow me to define what diaspora is. This is a person who is living outside the boundaries of Kenya. He may be living in Uganda, Tanzania, United States of America (USA), United Kingdom (UK) or the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Among other proposals, I am proposing that we compel Kenyan embassies abroad to devolve their functions to various cities. For example, USA has more than 50 States. You will find a person in Seattle City in Washington State has to go all the way to Washington DC because Consular services are not readily available in Washington State."
