Following the extensive deliberations, the Committee shall now table its conclusive report on the matter before this House. (f) In assessing the state of devolution in the counties, the Committee visited Turkana County to inspect the development projects being implemented by the County Government of Turkana. During the visit, the Committee noted that construction of some key projects had stalled, while others had taken too long to complete. Consequently, the Committee resolved to convene a meeting with key stakeholders implementing some of these projects in order to address the challenges causing the delayed implementation of projects. Thereafter, the Committee shall table a comprehensive report on this matter before this House. (g) In adherence to its constitutional mandate to safeguard the counties and in fostering a harmonious working relationship with the county governments, the Committee is currently inquiring into the long-standing dispute in the County Assembly of Nyamira, which has caused a leadership and operational crisis in the Assembly. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, the Committee in future plans to do the following- (1) A retreat with the Intergovernmental Relations Technical Committee (IGRTC), to deliberate on the issues emerging from the Gazette Notice No.219 by IGTRC, dated 16th December, 2024, on transfer of devolved functions. (2) Conduct an inquiry into national Government parastatals that are still performing devolved functions. (3) Conduct visits to various counties to inspect the development projects being implemented by the county governments and assess the general state of devolution in the counties. Lastly, I wish to appreciate the office of the Speaker, the Senate leadership and the office of the Clerk of the Senate for the steadfast support that they accorded us in the Committee. Thank you."
