National Assembly on Thursday evening passed the National Infrastructure Fund Bill, 2026, marking a pivotal shift in how the country will finance and manage its most ambitious infrastructure development projects. 

Specifically, the Bill aims to mobilize nearly KES 5 trillion over the next decade to shift infrastructure financing from a debt-driven model to a sustainable, investment-led approach.

A total of 1,272 compensation claims by police officers injured in the line of duty have been successfully paid, the Senate Committee on National Security, Defence and Foreign Relations has been told.

The National Police Service Commission which appeared before the Committee on Thursday, revealed that as at 28th February 2026, a total of 1,954 claims relating to the 2021/2022 financial year had been lodged with the National Hospital Insurance Fund, now operating as the Social Health Authority.

The Senate Committee on Labour and Social Welfare has received wide-ranging submissions on the proposed Public Service Internship Bill (National Assembly Bills No. 63 of 2022), with the Public Service Commission (PSC) defending its centralised recruitment model even as Senators pressed for stronger absorption pathways and broader reform of work-based learning.

National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetang’ula led Members of the Parliament and Senate in celebrating the life of Johana Ng'eno, MP Emurua Dikirr, and five others.

In his capacity as the Chairman of the Parliamentary Service Commission (PSC), Speaker Wetang’ula commended the Parliament team tasked to organise funeral plans for the victims of the Nandi helicopter crash that claimed the lives of six on board.
