• 28 Nov 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would like the Prime Minister to clarify the following given the fact that he is making a Statement on the road to the implementation of the devolved system of Government. Mr. Speaker, Sir, one, in the current financial year, the county governments were allocated a total of Kshs148 billion. I would like the Prime Minister to inform the House how the proportionate one-quarter of the last quarter of this financial year will be ensured that it trickles down to the county governments from March to cater for the needs of March, April, May and June.

• 30 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, you know in the past we have been subjected, as a House, to be being ambushed by the Executive, whereupon we end up not doing as thorough a job as this House needs to do. So, I would like the Minister to confirm to the House, and the country, that the delay in laying these rules and regulations--- They are going to set the exact timetable which the IEBC is supposed to follow. We know that the delay is not part of a conspiracy, or a scheme, to ensure eventually elections in this country are ... view

• 29 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Assitant Minister has said that he is not aware of this planned mission that was booked by his officers on the ground to visit this particular site where every arrangement had been made and like he has confirmed, mobilization had also been made to ensure the Assistant Minister came and I know they were booked. Even though they may not have been able to come, I would like to know between 1st March and this time why they have not conducted the so-called Central Province monitoring and evaluation of this project for the whole of that ... view
• 29 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, my last point is that agriculture is the mainstay of our economy. Maragwa Constituency activities are agriculture based. There is not much else we do. When I asked the Assistant Minister to state the various development projects that were undertaken in that financial year, he gave a total of Kshs6.39 million as the money that flowed to Murang’a South District, which is Maragwa Constituency; is it worth saying that we have a Ministry of Agriculture when in a whole financial year all that a constituency can count on is only Kshs6.93 million? view

• 24 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Chairman, Sir, whereas I do not have serious issues with that one, my only concern is yesterday we talked about vettable positions and passed a clause excluding those seeking elective and appointive positions from going through the process of vetting. So, we need to be given further description and explanations as to what are vettable positions. Which positions are those which will be vetted and which ones will be excluded from vetting? I would like to be clear on that. view

• 24 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Chairman, Sir, this is a good proposal. However, it appears like Members of Parliament are very keen when it comes to vetting others. Yesterday when we were passing the Leadership and Integrity Bill, it was becoming--- view
