    "content": "First, I am in receipt of a letter dated 10th November, 2011 from the Ministry of Justice, National Cohesion, and Constitutional Affairs with regard to a workshop on the implementation of Kenya’s Universal Periodic Review Recommendations. The Universal Periodic Review is a mechanism through which the UN Human Rights Council reviews compliance by member states with international human rights obligations. Kenya’s compliance status was last reviewed on 6th May, 2010. During the exercise, the Council made a number of recommendations to the Government which it is expected to implement. Hon. Members, in view of the fact that the Executive Arm of the Government has to work hand-in-hand with Parliament for the smooth implementation of the recommendations and, more importantly, because these recommendations may require ratification of treaties, the Ministry of Justice, National Cohesion and Constitutional Affairs has invited all Members to a two-day workshop to appraise them on these recommendations as well as the Universal Periodic Review process itself. The workshop will be held in Mombasa on 9th December, 2011 and 10th December, 2011 at a venue to be confirmed in due course. Members will be expected to depart from Nairobi on Thursday, 8th December, 2011 and return on Sunday, 11th December, 2011. Members are, therefore, requested to confirm their attendance by registering at the Main Reception of the Main Parliament Buildings by Thursday, 24th"
