    "content": "The President reiterated his commitment to the realisation of the Big Four Agenda. He called on Parliament to play its constitutional and legislative roles in achieving the President’s transformation agenda for this country. In the previous President's Address, which he made on 2nd May 2018, this was also a very steadfast commitment by him. As Parliament, and in particular the National Assembly, we have passed all the laws that are relevant to the achievement of the Big Four Agenda, namely, the Housing Fund, the universal healthcare, manufacturing and taxation laws. As the National Assembly, we take the credit. That is why in the next section of the President's Address, he urged the Houses of Parliament, both the National Assembly and the Senate, to fast track certain crucial legislation which include the Land Value Index (Amendment) Bill, the Physical Planning Bill, the Irrigation Bill, the Warehouse Receipts System Bill and the Kenya Roads Bill, which I can confirm are at the mediation stage. I am sure we will agree with our colleagues in the Senate and next week, we will make sure that the President assents them to law. That is our obligation."
