Parliament Website Remains Closed

The National Assembly's official website was shut down last September
after The Standard published education backgrounds, hobbies, ages and other
details of MPs from the site.
The site was shut down after complaints that the information was
"too sensitive" and that MPs had been embarrassed.
Posted on the website, http://www.parliament.go.ke , are the words:
"Thank you for visiting the Parliament website. We are currently updating
this site. Please bookmark this site and visit us shortly."
The site, which was on a test run, was shut before the launch, set for
last September.
They detail MPs' employment history, political experience and special
skills. The sites also tabulate MPs' performance in Parliament in terms of
questions raised and their contributions.
Also included are parliamentary documents such as Bills, Acts, Order
Papers and transcripts of proceedings.
The sites also contain a summary of development funds and ministry
activities. Also posted on the sites are proceedings of committee meetings,
which are still a closed-door affair in
The public is also given an opportunity to post comments on the
websites.
