    "content": "The meeting will take place from 17th to 19th October 2019 in Mombasa County. The participants, who include the presidium of the House, party leaders and Whips, Chairpersons and Vice-Chairpersons of Committees, will depart Nairobi for Mombasa on Thursday 17th October 2019 at the close of business and return on Saturday, 19th October 2019. Hon. Members, this year’s roundtable meeting provides an opportunity in the endeavour to bring together the management of the private sector and the political leadership of the National Assembly to candidly engage and interact on issues of interest that are pivotal for propelling the country’s economy to higher levels. There is no doubt that this year’s roundtable retreat comes at the most opportune time when the country is grappling with unemployment and job creation especially for the youth. In particular, this meeting will provide both the business community and Members of Parliament an occasion to take stock of the legislative engagements over the past year. Finally, it will also provide an opportunity for both parties to further concretise the partnership in the name of accelerating legislative interventions aimed at catalysing socio- economic transformation and growth. This is, therefore, to inform the House about the event and, indeed, request all those invited, including the leadership of the House, Chairpersons and Vice- Chairpersons of committees and other Members that have received invitations, to dedicate time to attend this crucial meeting. I thank you, hon. Members. Next Order."
