    "content": " Order! Hon. Members, this is Communication from the Chair on an amendment to the ongoing Motion. Hon. Members, before we proceed to debate the Motion regarding accessibility to public buildings by persons with disability, I wish to inform the House that we require to move some amendments to the Motion. This Motion was moved on 17th February, 2016 by Hon. Isaack Mwaura who had a balance of 45 minutes. In the course of the debate, the Motion was amended. I have, however, noted that the Motion as amended is not implementable. This is because the National Council of Persons with Disabilities (NCPD) does not have the mandate or capacity to approve the designs of all public structures to ensure their compliance to minimum accessibility standards. Such functions lie with the National Construction Authority (NCA). It is in this regard that I have allowed Hon. Zuleikha Hassan Juma to move an amendment to the Motion to enrich the final resolution of the House and make it possible for the Government to execute it. I thank you."
