AMENDMENT OF THE KENYA POST OFFICE SAVINGS BANK ACT THAT, taking into account that commercial banks have been unable to expand banking operations to many towns in Kenya and are, in fact, withdrawing their services in these towns; and aware that the spread of banking operations is key to developing all parts of the country, this House do grant leave to introduce a Bill to amend the Kenya Post Office Savings Bank Act, Cap.493B of the Laws of Kenya in order to allow the Kenya Post Office Savings Bank, in addition to and in furtherance of its responsibilities and current functions, to advance loans and other forms of credit service to its target group, that is low income individuals and households and small and micro-enterprises. 886 ESTABLISHMENT OF TECHNICAL COMMITTEE ON YALA SWAMP THAT, whereas the National Assembly approved a resolution calling on the Government to reclaim the Yala Swamp, and to implement irrigated farming to increase food production, and to promote commercial farming in the area; and being aware that the Government through the Lake Basin Development Authority signed a memorandum of understanding with Dominion Farms Limited for the development of the Yala Swamp; this House urges the Government to set up a technical committee of experts to investigate and report on the extent of implementation of this project and to recommend an action plan on how the project can be expanded in Siaya, Bondo and Busia, and further that the findings of the technical committee be tabled in this House within six months."
