"content": "On the suitability and integrity of the nominees, and pursuant to Article 132(2)(e) of the Constitution and Standing Order No.45(4), the Committee unanimously agreed that these nominees are suitable to hold these positions. As we move forward, I ask the Departmental Committee on Defence and Foreign Relations to ensure that we allocate more resources to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Trade and its foreign stations during the budget- making process. When we go out on parliamentary duties, some of our diplomatic missions out there have to hire vehicles for our transport. Therefore, we must have a specific Vote line for all our diplomatic missions abroad and ensure that they are sufficiently resourced, so that they can have enough vehicles and other amenities because they represent the people of Kenya. Parliamentarians are always received at the airport by our ambassadors. So, we must also be cognisant of the budget we allocate to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Trade in making sure that our foreign missions across the world are adequately funded."
