Members, this Communication from the Chair, being No. 46 of 2021, relates to the import of the judgment of the Court of Appeal in Civil Appeal No.E084 of 2021 on the legislative functions of the National Assembly. Hon. Members, you will recall that last year on 29th October 2020, the High Court delivered a judgment that, among other things, purported to nullify 23 Acts of Parliament that had been passed by this House. You will also recall that following the High Court Judgment, I did issue a Communication to this House to the effect that the National Assembly, being dissatisfied with that decision, would appeal the High Court Judgment. Hon. Members, to this end, I wish to inform you that last week on Friday, 19th November 2021, the Court of Appeal sitting in Nairobi in Civil of Appeal No.E084 of 2021 delivered its judgment on our appeal and set aside the judgment of the High Court."
