13th Parliament

National Assembly Budget and Appropriations committee has raised reservations with regards to a proposed legislation that seeks to insure all Kenyan employees against unemployment.

The Unemployment Insurance Authority Bill sponsored by Ikolomani Member of Parliament (MP) Bernard Shonali seeks to provide payment of unemployment benefits to employees who become unemployed for six months.
