Members of Parliament; it is a great honour to address this opening session of Parliament combining both Houses. I wish to take this opportunity to congratulate hon. Members and hon. Senators on your election and nomination to both the Senate and the National Assembly. My congratulations also go the Speakers of the Senate and National Assembly together with their respective deputies on their elections, leaders of the Majority Party and Minority Party as well as their respective deputies on their own election. I want to especially congratulate the record number of women in both Houses, an indication of Kenya’s commitment to achieving gender parity and equality. I also commend the last Parliament for the passage of numerous Bills and for meeting constitutional deadlines. I take this opportunity to wish all hon. Members of the Eleventh Parliament the very best as you steer the legislative policy agenda of this august House over the next five years."
