"content": " Hon. Speaker, I seek your indulgence on this matter. You can recall that a question akin to this one has arisen in every sitting we have had. For the record, as I mentioned earlier, we have already scheduled a meeting with the Cabinet Secretary for Interior and National Administration next Thursday, 20th March 2025, to address the question on administrative units comprehensively. As I previously stated, and as recorded in this House, when they appeared before us on Budget Policy Statement (BPS), they indicated to the country and this House that they had already approved 24 sub-counties, 88 divisions, 318 locations and 674 sub-locations. Therefore, I seek your guidance on this matter because this question continues to arise. Perhaps Members could attend the Committee session as friends so that the Ministry can also respond to their concerns."

Pursuant to Standing Order 44(2)(c), I rise to seek a Statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Defence, Intelligence and Foreign Relations regarding the special status granted to the Gates Foundation, formerly known as the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. Through Kenya Gazette Supplement No. 181 of 2024, the Government granted the Gates Foundation special privileges, recognising it as a charitable trust with exclusive rights in Kenya. The privileges allow the foundation to engage in a contract, initiate legal action, conduct property transactions, and enjoy legal immunities within the country. However, concerns have been raised regarding the rationale for granting this special status and its broader implications. Given the involvement of the foundation in public health, agriculture, technology The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
