"content": "No. Standing Order No.44(2)(c) says that a Member, with leave of the Speaker, can stand and request for a statement and the Speaker shall appoint without debate the date on which the Chairperson of the Committee to which the statement is directed is to come and make the statement. Obviously, we should thank our Departmental Committee on Finance and National Planning for coming up with provisions in Section 65 because there is room for the CBK and authority which is contemplated under Article 94(5) of the Constitution as read out by Hon. Junet to make those regulations. However, the Statement cannot be given by the Chairperson of the Committee on Delegated Legislation because no such regulations have come up to the Committee. So, this statement should be responded to by the Chairperson who I can see has been listening very attentively; that is the Chairperson Finance and Planning, Hon. Joseph Limo, on Thursday November 8th 2018 at 2:30 p.m. What Hon. Junet has said is true; that section 65 requires that regulation should be promulgated within 30 days period which was given in the law. So, Chairperson Departmental Committee on Finance and National Planning, start preparing to deal with your client. Find out how he is going about implementing Section 65 of the Finance Act which already is the law now. It is not the Chairperson on Delegated Legislation but the Chairperson Departmental Committee on Finance and National Planning who will respond."
