Parliamentary proceedings go online

National Council for Law Reporting, Kenya National Assembly, Kenya ICT Board and Google work to digitise over 1,750 editions of parliamentary debates dating back over 50 years.

Kenyans now have free online access to debates from the Hansard, a collection of debates that date back to the pre-independence Legislative Council.

The earliest edition of the Hansard indexed is the Report of the Fourth Session of the Debates of the Legislative Council, dated November 24, 1959.
