The NADCO process was created to help address political tensions and propose reforms aimed at improving governance, electoral processes, and public participation.
Some of the recommendations require new laws or amendments to existing legislation before they can take effect.
However, progress has been slow in some areas, prompting the committee to suggest a more coordinated approach between the two chambers of Parliament.
Under the proposal, lawmakers from both houses would sit together in a joint working group tasked with reviewing the bills and guiding them through the legislative process more efficiently.
Supporters of the plan say such cooperation will reduce duplication of work and shorten the time required for debate and approval.
Another key proposal in the report involves the Kenya National Commission on Human Rights, which has been recommended to lead the development of legislation aimed at protecting both protesters and public property during demonstrations.
The proposed law would outline clear rights and responsibilities for citizens exercising their right to protest while also putting in place safeguards to prevent violence, destruction of property, and disruption of essential services.
Human rights advocates have long argued that Kenya needs clearer legal guidelines governing protests to ensure that demonstrations remain peaceful while also protecting people’s constitutional freedoms.
If adopted, the proposed legislation would help establish rules on how protests should be conducted, the responsibilities of organizers, and the role of security agencies during public demonstrations.
Members of the oversight committee say these reforms are part of broader efforts to strengthen democratic institutions and reduce political tensions in the country.
