Speaker, pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order No.44(2)(c), I rise to request for a Statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Transport, Public Works and Housing regarding the status of contracts awarded to foreign companies in the Energy, Infrastructure and ICT sectors. Hon. Speaker, the status of public debt as at 31st September, 2021, indicates that the gross public debt increased by Kshs.875.7 billion to Kshs.7,996.3 billion compared to Kshs.7,120.6 billion as at end of September, 2020. The gross public debt comprised 50.8 per cent external debt and 49.2 per cent domestic debt. The National Treasury attributes the increase in the public debt during the period to external loan disbursements, exchange rate fluctuations and uptake of domestic debt during the period."
