  • 25 Feb 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I also rise to support this Motion. I want to thank the Parliamentary Service Commission for coming up with names of Kenyans who are really dedicated to duty. I particularly know Lonah as a very hardworking lady. You can see the manner in which she has grown in her service. She started from a simple teacher to a principal, chief principal and also being commended by the State for an award of HSC. This is, therefore, a woman with substance and a hard- working one for that matter. She is a woman you can ... view
  • 15 May 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you hon. Speaker for giving me the opportunity to contribute. I am glad you know all my names. I rise to support this Motion. When I look at some of the countries in Africa like Botswana, which has similar climatic conditions like what we have in Northern Kenya particularly, produce some of the best meat in the world simply because they have policies, commitment and the urge to do their best for livestock farmers. In this country, we do not seem to have the same commitment and the same urge. All we do is make decisions which we forget ... view

  • 9 May 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Chairlady, I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 3 of the Bill be amended by deleting paragraph (b) and substituting therefor the following new paragraph- (b) the drawing of unconditional and conditional grants from the share of revenue of the National Government. Contrarily to what the Bill states in Clause 3(b) “and schedule additional resources or conditional allocations to be part of the national revenue and to be part of the national revenue under Clause 202(2) of the Constitution”, this is catered for there. Indeed, the Constitution at Article 202 (2) explicitly states that county governments may be given additional ... view
  • 9 May 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Chairlady, I beg to move:- THAT, the Bill be amended by deleting Clause 5. The provision to offset variation of revenue collections by sometimes reducing the county share is inconsistent with the need to protect revenue share of 15 per cent, in accordance with Article 203(2) of the Constitution. If we delete it, it cures this problem. Hon. Chairlady, lastly I had the privilege of serving in the Budget Committee and our problem was how to get accurate focus from the Treasury. We told them Parliament will not tolerate any more inaccurate focus from Treasury. This year alone, for ... view

  • 9 May 2013 in National Assembly: Yes. We are dealing with the revenue bill but not dispute resolutions. Dispute resolutions should be a separate Act of Parliament that should be used from time to time. What we are dealing with is revenue and division of revenue. This particular clause is misplaced. It should be deleted. view
  • 8 May 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me the opportunity to contribute to the debate on this Bill. First and foremost, it is a pity that because of the differences that we have on the formation of the committees of Parliament, this Bill has come to the House before going through a committee of Parliament. The Committee would have analyzed various issues, come up with recommendations to this House that would have formed the basis of debate. Because of the lack of this committee, we now have a very important Bill before this august House, which is being debated ... view
  • 8 May 2013 in National Assembly: Be that as it may, I would like to make a few observations which I consider very important. The first observation is that contrary to what the Bill proposes, conditional allocations should not be part of the county revenue share as per Article 202(2) of the Constitution. In fact, this is so important that I want to read it, for purposes of clarity, to the Members. It reads that:- view
  • 8 May 2013 in National Assembly: “(2) County governments may be given additional allocations from the national Government’s share of the revenue, either conditionally or unconditionally”. view
