The National Dialogue Committee has 60 days to submit a report on its deliberations in Parliament, National Assembly Leader of Majority Kimani Ichung’wa has said.

Ichung’wah made the remarks on the day he tabled a Motion seeking to have the committee formally constituted by both Houses of Parliament.

In the Motion, Ichung’wah stressed the need to establish an inclusive forum for dialogue, consultation and consensus building that will promote the peace, stability and prosperity of the country.

The Motion is expected to be tabled in the Senate once it resumes its sittings next Tuesday.

He added: “The Majority Party in Parliament and the Minority Party in Parliament have agreed to embrace dialogue through the establishment of a National Dialogue Committee to recommend a way forward on issues of concern to the people of Kenya.”
