• 20 Dec 2022 in Senate: Therefore, we should not set a precedence of saying that we do not trust in committees and this and that may happen. By and large, we are all Members of Committees in one way or the other. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I therefore plead with my colleagues. Let us vote, support the Motion as it is and tomorrow our colleagues can begin the work and put us on notice as soon as they are ready. We shall come back to hear the findings of this Committee. With those many remarks, I beg to reply. view
• 8 Dec 2022 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I join you in welcoming the guests that have joined us this morning to follow the proceedings during this Special Sitting. I wish them well in their excursion in the city and in Parliament as they seek to understand the Kenyan parliamentary processes. I also wish them well in whatever else that they find fit to study during their visit in our Republic. Most welcome to them. They come from a beautiful city. The last visit that I made to the USA, which was last year, with our Centre for Parliamentary Studies and Training (CPST) ... view
• 8 Dec 2022 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I have no opposition to what Sen. M. Kajwang’ has proposed. Indeed, he has spoken to me about the nature of the deferral that he is proposing to the House. It is for good reason and I agree with him. It always should be the case that when we are transacting business to have the input of the Committee; even after the publication scrutiny, before the Committee Stage. You remember the debate that we had here when we passed the Additional Allocation of Revenue Bill last week before we broke for recess, many Members felt ... view

• 8 Dec 2022 in Senate: Most occasions when we meet, it is either for Motions, which are equally important, but the most important business for Parliament is legislation for substantive Bills that come before this House. Virtually, every Committee has a Member that has requested that their Bill be considered and Committees are taking slightly longer. view
• 8 Dec 2022 in Senate: Last week, when we were considering the business to be brought before the House today, many of the Bills were found to be in the various Committees, yet to be given the final nod of approval for publishing. I request the Chairpersons to complete the business of any Bills before them before they break for Christmas so that we give authority for publishing. When we begin, chances are that we shall be consulting with my counterpart, the Senate Minority Leader. It is not tenable for us to wait until Valentine’s Day next year for us to reconvene yet there is ... view
• 8 Dec 2022 in Senate: The design and context of today’s sitting was to have as many Bills as possible be read the First Time so that Committees can begin working on them. Probably, later in the month of January, we meet and process most of those Bills. That is ideally what we should be doing. I request the Committee Chairpersons to conclude on that business. Have it ready and let it be published, because we are likely to reconvene in the first or second week of January and have 10 or 15 Bills committed to various Committees. As we do our recess, by 15th ... view

• 24 Nov 2022 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I know the provision of the Standing Order very well. However, I request you to exercise Standing Order No.1 in the following order. You are aware that more than three-quarters of the Members of this House are in Juba for a Parliamentary event. This is a situation where there are two sittings of Parliament going on concurrently. It will be wrong for us to calculate the quorum of 15 using the sitting in Nairobi alone. You should use both the Nairobi and Juba sitting. view
