dc.description.abstract |
The Anti-Corruption and Economic Crimes (Amendment) Bill, 2019 was published in the Kenya Gazette on 1st March, 2019 (National Assembly Bills No.
6). The Bill underwent First Reading on 20th March, 2019 and was immediately committed to the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs for review and report to the House pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order 127(1).
Pursuant to the provisions of Article 118 of the Constitution of Kenya and Standing Order 127 (3) the Committee through advertisement in the local daily newspapers of 29th March, 2019 invited the public to make representations on the Bill. The Committee received written submissions from the Multi-sectoral Initiative Against Corruption which has been taken into account while considering the Bill.
The Committee held one (1) sitting on 15th June, 2019 during which it considered the Bill and unanimously adopted its report rejecting the proposed amendment in entirety.
May I take this opportunity to-
(i) Thank Committee Members for their devotion and
commitment to duty which made consideration of the Bill successful;
(ii) Express gratitude to the Offices of Speaker and Clerk of the
National Assembly for always providing leadership and guidance;
(lip Appreciate the Committee secretariat for exemplary
performance in providing technical and logistical support.
Indeed, their roles were critical to the Committee in the consideration of the Bill.
On behalf of the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs and pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order 199 (6), it is my pleasant privilege and duty to present to the House a report of the Committee on the AntiCorruption and Economic Crimes (Amendment) Bill, 2019. |
