    "content": "Hon. Speaker, I beg to move the following Motion: THAT, this House adopts the Special Report of the Public Investments Committee on Kenya Airports Authority Duty Free Shops contracts at Jomo Kenyatta and Moi International Airports - 1989 to 2015 - laid on the Table of the House on Tuesday, December 1, 2015. Hon. Speaker, thank you very much for giving me this opportunity to move this Report. As you are aware, PIC is a Standing Committee established pursuant to Standing Order No.206 and is responsible for the examination of the workings of the investments. The Committee is mandated to examine the reports and accounts of public investments and reports, if any, of the Auditor-General on public investments. The Committee also examines the context of autonomy and efficiency of the public investments with a view to establish whether the affairs of the public investments are being managed in accordance with sound financial business principles and prudent commercial practices. I will give a brief background of the inquiry into the particular case. The establishment of the Kenya Airports Authority (KAA) was in 1991 under the Kenya Airports Authority Act Chapter 395 of the Laws of Kenya. It is charged with the umbrella responsibility of providing and managing a coordinated system of airports in the country. KAA’s main functions include administration, control and management of aerodromes; to provide and maintain facilities necessary for efficient operations of aircrafts to provide rescue and fire-fighting equipment and services. It also constructs, operates and maintains aerodromes and other related activities as well as constructing and maintaining aerodromes on an agency basis on the request of any government department. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
