    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The money that came to this country through foreign exchange earnings was Kshs15,966,000 in February, 2024, according to the Central Bank of Kenya. Since this is the highest foreign exchange earner to the Republic, my question is about labour attachés. Mr. Speaker, Sir, you are aware the Cabinet Secretary for Labour and Social Protection was in this House a few months ago. What is the Ministry of Foreign and Diaspora Affairs, through the Prime Cabinet Secretary doing with regards to the issue of labour attachés? The President has just signed what we call the Labour Migration Bill, for more young people to be taken abroad. Besides, even on the issue of legal services, you are aware we only have one legal advisor in New York. I remember there was a frustrated person from Kapsabet a few months ago and I sat with the Principal Secretary of Foreign and Diaspora Affairs. What is the role of the Department of Diaspora and Foreign Affairs in terms of handling such matters? I remember when I shared with the PS of Foreign and Diaspora Affairs, the intervention took long. However, my concern, it should be the office of the Diaspora of Foreign Affairs through the PS, who is my very good neighbour and he normally comes to Nandi occasionally where he even has relatives. What can he do on these two matters that I have raised? I thank you."
