    "content": " Hon Members, you will recall that yesterday, Wednesday 13th July, 2016, the Deputy Speaker who is also the distinguished Senator for Murang’a County, Sen. Kembi-Gitura, rose on a point of order and raised concerns on the existing security system within Parliament Buildings. The matter was also spoken to by several other Senators, including the Senate Minority Leader, Sen. Kagwe, Sen. (Eng.) Muriuki, Sen. (Dr.) Machage, Sen. Ong’era, Sen. Hassan, Sen. Okong’o, Sen. (Prof.) Anyang’-Nyong’o and Sen. Haji. You will also recall that I undertook to issue a communication on the matter given that the concerns raised have far reaching consequences if not addressed promptly. Hon. Senators, Parliament is a vital installation with high profile occupants and visitors, including a large number of members of the public, college students and school pupils, apart from suppliers and contractors who visit the precincts for various reasons on daily basis. We routinely also get international visitors, especially hon. Members from other parliaments. To safeguard Members, staff, visitors and property of Parliament, Parliament security which is provided by Serjeant-at-Arms and agencies responsible for protection of Parliament, including the Kenya Police, have been directed to implement the following security controls at all access points into and within the precincts of Parliament:- 1. Only vehicles bearing valid security car stickers issued by Parliament security will be allowed access into the precincts of Parliament.Vehicles without valid car stickers shall be denied entry. 2. All vehicles will, at all times, be subjected to security search before entry into Parliament and drivers are required to fill the vehicle register at the entrance before entry. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate"
