• 17 Nov 2022 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I appreciate the Committee on Finance and Budget; a committee that I respect and admire. I have served there for many years and I appreciate its contribution. Every time they are challenged, like we have challenged them to work expeditiously, sometimes they burn the midnight oil in order to process certain urgent matters. It is easy for somebody to ask why the committee has not given us its report or say that they have not concluded reading the report and so on. However, over the years, experience has taught me that money issues are not agreed ... view

• 17 Nov 2022 in Senate: during the Third Reading when you get the justification from the committee report of why they propose certain amendments. We do not debate but give justifications or dissatisfaction on proposed amendments during the Third Reading. At that time, you can say that you do not agree with certain Clauses and give reasons. Somebody else may also give the justification. view
• 17 Nov 2022 in Senate: The reason we are proposing this amendment is because of a, b, c or d that holds to for the people that I represent in this House and therefore, I support that particular amendment. For that reason, I urge colleague Senators who are in the House to read the contents of this Bill. This is perhaps one of the most important Businesses that the Senate gets to transact each and every financial year. It is important that we place some history how we ended up with this Bill. Previously, we used to carry conditional and unconditional grants as part of ... view

• 17 Nov 2022 in Senate: justification for the Senate to agree to a particular formula and a distribution that does not favour certain counties over others. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I appreciate the work that this Committee has done. I know they have not reached an agreement with the National Treasury. Perhaps that is part of the reasons the report is not here. I strongly believe that by Tuesday, when you are likely to conclude on the Third Reading of this Bill, they will have given us the justifications for the amendments that they want us to separate between this one and the Equalisation Fund ... view

• 17 Nov 2022 in Senate: If you go to many of the towns, some of these conditional grants are under Danish International Development Agency (DANIDA) projects and Kenya Urban Support Program. It is vision for simple projects such as repairing town roads and ensuring that our towns are well maintained. In many of our towns, especially those outside of Nairobi City County, you will find many roads are dilapidated especially those maintained by the county governments. I have seen the same problem even in Nairobi City County. The county governments are held back because they are unable to access these funds. There is good justification ... view

• 15 Nov 2022 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to say something on the Statement issued by Sen. Cherarkey on the fallen hero, Mr. Kiprugut. Last weekend, we laid Mr. Kiprugut to rest at his home in Kericho County. First of all, I wish to appreciate that unlike in previous occasions where we have laid heroes to rest, the Ministry of Tourism, Wildlife and Heritage was well represented. Athletics Kenya also came in its full force. I was not able to personally join them but I followed the event and appreciated that at least the country recognized this hero albeit in death. Mr. Speaker, ... view
