    "content": "other public health calamities and the current strained state of the Kenyan economy; NOW THEREFORE, the Senate resolves that the State Department for Economic Planning, in consultation with the Council of Governors (COG), come up with reviewed implementation roadmaps for the two levels of Government taking into account the shocks that have impeded or any other that are likely to impede the implementation of the 2030 agenda for Sustainable Development. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are one of the many international obligations that Kenya has signed into. I move this Motion so that as Senate and possibly the entire Parliament, we need to recognize the need of carrying out the oversight role in our job. We need to find a way of holding the Executives at both the National and the county level, accountable to delivering on the obligations that we make internationally as Kenya. The SDGs are a myriad and aligned to a number of our own development agenda. This is something that we have recognized. In 2008, we had or developed our own blue print, which is the Vision 2030 that has guided development planning in this country for all these years. After the adoption of the SDGs in 2016, Kenya assigned on to the SDGs and started aligning its medium-term plans alongside the Vision 2030. The Vision 2030 has three broad pillars. It has the economic pillar, the social pillar and the political pillar. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the SDGs are 16 in number. I will just name them without any particular order. They include; no poverty, zero hunger, affordable and clean energy, descent work and economic growth, industry innovation and infrastructure, responsible consumption and production, climate action, life below water, life on land, good health and wellbeing, quality education, gender equity, clean water and sanitation, reduced inequalities and peace, justice and strong institutions."
