• 26 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you hon. Speaker, Sir. I rise to seek clarification from the Leader of Majority Party on the issue of security, and specifically the measures the Government is taking to address this matter, its root cause, and dealing with senior security officers, who over a time have been transferred whenever insecurity has erupted in the areas they are in charge of. We know that they keep on moving around the country, but we know we are dealing with the same officers, who are incapable of addressing the insecurity problem in the areas they have been in charge. The Government is ... view
• 25 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, Sir, I rise to second the Motion by hon. Langat in regard to the vetting and appointment of the Principal Secretaries for industrialization and Enterprise Development, Devolution, Planning, National Treasury; and Commerce and Tourism. As has been alluded to by our Chairman, in vetting the nominees, the Committee was very keen to ensure that all the constitutional requirements for the vetting of public servants were adhered to. Other than just looking at their academic qualification, the employment record, their professional affiliation; whether there was any potential conflict of interest, the knowledge of the relevant subject that they have ... view
• 25 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: You realize that the Departmental Committee on Finance, Planning and Trade is probably the only Committee that had five nominees reporting to it for vetting and that probably tells you the enormous task that this Committee has in terms of ensuring that the relevant Ministries or Principal Secretaries who have been appointed deliver on the huge mandate that they have been given. It is important to realize that under the current devolved system of Government, many people are focusing on how they are going to share the national cake. I think what we were looking at is whether the Principal ... view
• 25 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: When you look at sectors like tourism, industry and commerce, these are the sectors that need to get further investment so that our economy can grow and we can have a bigger cake which we can share. But even more critical is the aspect of devolution. I know that many people were very uncomfortable when the Ministry of Devolution was created and we needed to understand whether the nominee for that position understands what his role is going to be. Whereas among the five nominees he may have been the only person without proper public sector experience, it came out ... view
• 28 May 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you hon. Deputy Speaker. I rise personally to support this Motion. I am supporting a person I know very well. I have gone through the report and I have seen a career civil servant. A person who has risen from the position of DO II to where he is now, as the Head of Public Service. I fully agree with hon. Leshosmo that, instead of wasting time--- view
• 28 May 2013 in National Assembly: Please, allow me to contribute. Your time will come. I have gone through the Report and have seen a serious career civil servant. My brother Kimemia has developed quite a number of policies for this country. Some of those policies are being used in the civil service currently. Hon. Deputy Speaker, I support. Thank you. view
• 22 May 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker. I rise to second the Motion. view
• 22 May 2013 in National Assembly: Article 42 of our Constitution is very clear. Under the Bill of Rights, every citizen of this country is entitled to a clean and healthy environment. This includes the right to have the environment protected for the benefit of the present and future generations through legislative and other regulatory measures, particularly the laws contemplated under Article 69. Again, under Article 69, it is very clear that one of the obligations of the Government, with regard to the environment, is protection and enhancement of intellectual property; protection and enhancement of indigenous knowledge of biodiversity and genetic resources of communities; and protection ... view
