(Dr.) Milgo","speaker_title":"","speaker":{"id":13174,"legal_name":"Milgo Alice Chepkorir","slug":"milgo-alice-chepkorir"},"content":"Madam Temporary Speaker, the Act also establishes the National Museums of Kenya (NMK), which has the legal status of a National Statutory Corporation. The legislative proposal before the Committee seeks to align the current Act to be in conformity with the Constitution; and with the aims of devolution as outlined in Article 174 of the Constitution. The first crucial amendments to the Act are through Clauses 3 and 4, which seek to rename the National Museums of Kenya as the Kenya Heritage Authority. This is in order to distinguish the extent the Parastatal, as a body, is limited to the national Government function as outlined in the Fourth Schedule of the Constitution."}
