The National Assembly Committee on Education, chaired by Hon. Julius Melly, conducted an oversight visit to the Kenya Institute of Special Education (KISE).

The Committee engaged with KISE's Director and Secretary to the Council, Dr. Norman Kiogora, on several matters including teacher training, early identification of disabilities, and the status of key development projects like the Assistive Devices Factory.

Members questioned KISE on its plan to decentralize its essential services to reach learners in rural regions.

The Kenya Network of Cancer Organisations (KENCO) has petitioned the National Assembly to intervene and ensure an enhancement of oncology benefits and adequate allocation of funds to the Primary Healthcare Fund and the Emergency, Chronic and Critical Illness Fund.
