I rise pursuant to Standing Order No.53(1) to seek a Statement from the Standing Committee on Roads, Transport and Housing regarding the upgrade of Lamu Airport. In the Statement, the Committee should- (1) Outline steps taken by the Government to address the perennial problem of intermediate power supply in Lamu Airport; (2) State when the Airport will be connected to the national grid given that it currently uses solar energy; (3) Provide a status update on the fulfilment of the Government's commitment made by the then Principal Secretary for the State Department for Transport on 15th September 2021 to establish a water desalination plant at the airport to address the perennial water shortage; (4) Explain why the general upgrade works at the airport which began in March 2021 and were projected to take six months are yet to be completed; (5) Outline measures to ensure the completion of the upgrade works without further delay, stating the project timeframe and indicating any budgetary allocation made for the upgrade work since 2021 proving a breakdown of its utilization."
