    "content": " Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Hon. Irene has raised a very important matter and the Departmental Committee on Finance and National Planning is well seized of this matter. We have seen thousands, if not millions of Kenyans, lose their money from their bank accounts. When they raise those concerns with their respective banks, this has not been addressed. We have had people lose money from their mobile applications and when this particular matter is raised, it has not been addressed. These institutions have a tendency to tell the customers to go report at the police station. Once this matter is reported to the police and an occurrence book (OB) number is obtained, nothing much is done. As the Committee mandated to oversee the financial sector, we request to conduct an inquiry instead of seeking for a Statement so that we ask all Kenyans that have lost their money in either a bank account, Sacco account, microfinance account or through a mobile application to write to us to address that matter. If for any case it is because of non-existence of a legal framework, then this being a law-making House, we will propose the correct law. This is to protect the hard-earned salaries and savings of very hardworking Kenyans. I thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker."
