    "content": "the Committee held meetings with the CS, Transport, Infrastructure, Housing and Urban Development and the Managing Director of the Kenya Railways Corporation (KRC). The meetings were aimed at affording the CS and the Managing Director (MD) an opportunity to assist the Committee to conduct its inquiry by informing the Committee on the issues surrounding the development of the SGR. The SGR is part of the greater Mombasa-Kampala-Kigali-Juba SGR, which is one of the projects under the Northern Corridor Integrated Project, for which Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda and South Sudan have signed and ratified the SGR Protocol. The SGR is one of the critical flagship projects under the Kenya Vision, 2030. It is envisaged in transforming the country’s transport infrastructure with the view of positioning its regional transport hub for Eastern and Central Africa. Owing to the importance of the project which falls within the Committee’s oversight mandate, the Committee on its own motion, pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order No.261(5)(e), resolved to undertake and inquire into the development and status of the implementation of Phases I and II of the SGR."
