    "content": "week, I think it was called Ibex Limited where members, including some from this House lost millions of shillings. They should be proactive and not reactive. Lastly, the Business Laws (Amendment) Bill, now the Business Laws Amendment Act, that this House passed in December last year, gives additional responsibilities to the Central Bank of Kenya. This includes bringing under the purview of the Central Bank of Kenya the ‘Buy Now, Pay Later’ programme such as the Lipa Pole Pole on our phones, especially when people buy phones or get into the boda boda sector and use Lipa Pole Pole . This additional mandate therefore means that the Central Bank must be up to speed to ensure they have the requisite human resource and technology to take on the new responsibilities. As the CBK transitions into a modernised future, the new board's capacity to balance innovation, stability and consumer protection will be very critical. Hon. Temporary Speaker, in view of the following, the Joint Parliamentary Committee recommends that this House approves FCPA Sophie Moturi, CPA Abdullahi Mohamed Abdi, Ms Beatrice Kosgei and Mr David Simpson Osawa Owuor for their appointment as members of the Board of the Central Bank of Kenya. Their wealth of experience will be instrumental in steering Kenya's financial sector towards a future of stability, innovation and inclusive economic growth. I respectfully urge my colleagues in this House to approve and adopt the Joint Committee's Report for the appointment of these board directors of the Central Bank of Kenya. I beg to move and request Hon. CPA Rutto, the great Member of Parliament for the people of Kesses Constituency, to second."
