    "content": "Hon. Members, allow me to make this short communication regarding the Speaker’s Roundtable Conference. As you are aware, the National Assembly has since 2009 engaged the Kenya Private Sector Alliance (KEPSA) in an annual consultative forum dubbed the Speaker’s Roundtable. The forum has provided an important platform for the two institutions to engage and build synergies vital for the creation of an enabling environment to not only spur the economic growth of our country, but to also create employment for the youth. This year’s Speaker’s Roundtable is scheduled to take place at the Leisure Lodge in Diani, Kwale County, on Friday, 5th and Saturday, 6th October 2018. The main objective of the Roundtable is to define the role of the National Assembly in the Big Four Agenda. Some of the topics to be covered include: (a) Re-imagining Kenya: Focus on Revenue, Taxation and Political Economy to Stimulate Growth; (b) The Role of Parliament, Private Sector and Partners in Achieving the Big Four Agenda for Sustainable and Inclusive Growth; (c) Collective Actualisation of the Big Four Agenda: The Role of the Private Sector and the National Assembly. The budget of the conference is co-funded by KEPSA and the National Assembly. This is, therefore, to remind you of the scheduled event whose invitations have already been dispatched through Chairpersons of Departmental Committees as well as the Chairperson of the Budget and Appropriations Committee. Members will depart for Mombasa on Thursday 4th and return back to Nairobi on Saturday, 6th October 2018. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
