The public hearings on the Finance Bill, 2025 and the Virtual Asset Service Providers Bill, 2025 are set to continue.

The exercise, which commenced Saturday (May 31), concludes Friday (June 6).

The National Assembly's Finance Committee, chaired by Molo MP Kuria Kiman, will tomorrow be in Machakos and Kiambu to receive oral submissions.

On Friday, the committee will be in Kwale, Mombasa and Kilifi counties.

The team was in Busia and Migori counties on Tuesday.

Kenyans can also scan a QR code system that allows them to access the Bill online and submit their views without attending physical hearings.

Kimani said the approach is designed to reach more people, especially those who may not have the time to leave their workplaces for physical forums.
