    "content": "I rise to support this Report on enhancing reporting of parliamentary business on online platforms. As I do so, I refer to the fact that the Constitution provides the public a right to information or the proceedings that go on in the National Assembly and the Senate. As we are aware, the National Assembly and Senate have been sharing broadcasting platforms through Signet Television. That is in limited areas in Nairobi. As my colleagues have said, I know there have been developments. Technology has changed. Things have changed since 2016 when we had a social media policy for this House. Technology has changed. It is about time we realigned our social platforms with the technology that has so far been developed. As my friends have mentioned, there is TikTok, Facebook and YouTube. All those platforms have been used within Parliament and outside. However, it is about time we reviewed how we have been utilising them. The numbers do not show that we have been utilising the platforms that we have. If you look at numbers on the YouTube, you will find that we have not been actively involved."
