In this regard, I wish to report to the House that on Tuesday, 13th November 2018, I received three Messages from the Senate regarding the passage of three Bills. The first Message relates to the passage of the Food Security Bill (Senate Bill No.12 of 2017). The Bill seeks to give effect to Article 43(1)(c) of the Constitution on the freedom from hunger and the right to adequate food of acceptable quality; Article 53(1)(c ) of the Constitution on the right of every child to basic nutrition and Article 21 on the implementation of rights and fundamental freedoms under the Constitution. The Bill also seeks to provide a framework and mechanism for the national and county governments to fulfil their obligations in relation to food security. The second Message relates to the passage of the County Statistics Bill (Senate Bill No.9 of 2018) that seeks to provide a framework for the collection, compilation, analysis and dissemination of statistical information and to establish the office of the county statistician. The last message is conveying the passage of the Salaries and Remuneration Commission (Amendment) Bill (Senate Bill No.12 of 2018) as a Bill seeking to amend the Salaries and Remuneration Commission Act, to provide for notification of the expiry of term for commissioners and provide for timeliness for the filling of vacancies in the Commission upon expiry of their terms."
