Interior CS Prof. Kithure Kindiki expected to be first CS to appear on the floor of the National Assembly to directly respond to questions by Members of Parliament.The commencement of appearances of the CSs comes at a time when National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetangula is on record saying that neither Chief Administrative Secretaries (CAS) nor other government officials will be allowed to represent Cabinet secretaries in plenary when they start appearing today. The move comes after the lawmakers adopted a report of the Committee on Procedure and House Rules that sought to amend Standing Order 25A to allow a Cabinet secretary to expound on government policy, reply to questions and provide reports concerning matters under his or her control.
