In the Statement, the Committee should address the following- (1) The procurement processes for the award by the KLB of all currently active contracts for publishing and supply of various books, including the merits of each award as well as the nature and extent of involvement of the Ministry of Education in the processes. (2) The process followed by the Kenya Literature Bureau (KLB) to acquire printing and binding machines in the Financial Year 2024/2025, including whether due diligence was undertaken and where it was not, whether disciplinary actions have been undertaken against the responsible officials. (3) The renewal of contracts for officers holding managerial positions at the KLB, including whether due process was followed. (4) Reasons why the renewal of contracts for the officers was not gazetted and the corrective actions taken to address the issue.
