About HAK

A Cornerstone in Governance

Since its inception, the Hansard Association of Kenya has served as a cornerstone for the preservation of parliamentary records, ensuring that the deliberations of the people's representatives are captured with accuracy, integrity, and transparency.

With the reintroduction of bicameralism at the national legislature and the robust growth of the 47 county assemblies, Hansard has evolved into a vital instrument in governance, judicial proceedings, public accountability, and historical archiving.
