• 1 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I would also wish to express my sympathy to hon. Ojode and wish him quick recovery. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I was talking about the process of registering and operationalizing a health facility. It has to be registered, gazetted. That is when, and only when, the Government can operationalize that facility. However, after taking that long route and getting the facility registered or gazetted, there are still no medical personnel to man those facilities. With regard to the already existing rural dispensaries, there needs to be very strict supervision in terms of administration. There ... view
• 24 Jul 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, this Question was answered last wednesday by the Leader of Government Business. What is left for me is just to table the list of all the polytechnics that are being assisted by my Ministry, as nominated by Members of Parliament. I, hereby, table the list of 155 polytechnics that were nominated by hon. Members of Parliament. To date, we still do not have polytechnics from 55 constituencies. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to lay the list on the Table. view
• 24 Jul 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the polytechnics we are talking about are based in the constituencies. They are being assisted by my Ministry in the 2006/2007 Financial Year. For Rongo Constituency, the hon. Member forwarded Awendo Marindi Youth Polytechnic. It is being considered for that financial year. So, maybe, when we ask for polytechnics this financial year, the hon. Members could forward Kitere Polytechnic now that it has been registered as a youth polytechnic. Then, we will consider it. view
• 24 Jul 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, what I have said is that in the last Financial Year - 2006/2007 - we asked for one polytechnic per constituency. The hon. Member forwarded one polytechnic from his constituency. So, for this financial year, we have not asked for other polytechnics because we are still finalising the logistics of delivering equipment to the 155 polytechnics in the constituencies, including the one from Rongo Constituency. So, when the time comes in this financial year, we will ask for more polytechnics and we will consider the one you have forwarded to the Ministry. view
• 20 Jun 2007 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me the opportunity to contribute to this Motion. From the onset, I beg to support. Let me first congratulate the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) for the very bold efforts they have shown in collecting revenue for the development of this country. However, I would just wish June 20, 2007 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 1907 to request them, especially at the customs border points of this country, to look very, very seriously at some issues that affect the people living at the borders. If you take, for instance, Namanga, which is one of the ... view
• 20 Jun 2007 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I was talking about the customs issues at the border points. The KRA should take steps to ensure that the Kenyan youth at the borders are really given priority in terms of loading and reloading of goods and even services that are offered at those points, instead of going for our neighbours on the other side. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would also wish to register my appreciation on the economic growth that we have experienced over the last four years. Some of the sectors or even all of the sectors in ... view
• 20 Jun 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, with those few remarks, I beg to support. view
• 9 May 2007 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me the opportunity to contribute to this very important Bill. I promise not to take as much time as my good friend, Mr. Muturi. This is a very good Bill, is long overdue, because employment is the source of livelihood of each one of us. I just want to address myself to about four issues relating to employment, the first one being discrimination in employment. This aspect is captured under Clause 5, the Second Part of the Bill. The proposal that employment should not be tied to discrimination, but should rather ... view
• 24 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity. I want to support this very important Motion. I also want to add my voice to those who are in agreement that the economy is growing and, actually, it has grown. In that regard, I would like to thank those in the Treasury and the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) for a job well done. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, in supporting the Supplementary Estimates, I was expecting the Minister to actually take into account or take into consideration the establishment of the new districts. New districts ... view
• 4 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, could the Assistant Minister tell the House who the contractor for this particular project is and how much is the contract sum? view
