• 28 Nov 2018 in Senate: Assembly and the Clerk of the Senate. Without that level of specificity in the Bills that we are passing, then we end up finding ourselves in the kind of situations where laws have been passed in the National Assembly and just the same is transmitted to the President for assent without concurrence from the Senate. You find that such Bills are signed into law and they become operational. It is unfortunate that we only have to rely on data of this world to remind us on many occasions that this particular Bill was supposed to have been transmitted to the ... view
• 28 Nov 2018 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker, for giving me this chance. I want to appreciate the very good thoughts and work that has been put into this Bill by my elder brother and friend, the Senator of Vihiga County, Sen. Khaniri. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate. view
• 28 Nov 2018 in Senate: The fact that six years into devolution, we, as a House, have not considered making such laws, speaks a lot about how us. Sometimes we miss our priorities because we do not consider matters that are extremely important to our county governments. Devolution offered Kenyans an opportunity to self-governance. If you listened keenly to Kenyans in the run up to the 2010 Referendum, they felt that they were not getting proper representation and services from the centre. It was, therefore, important that we go the devolved way. This was to ensure that each and every person in our society, in ... view
• 28 Nov 2018 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. The CPSB advised that despite the fact that there might be established need for that particular county to recruit county enforcement officers, the procedure under the Public Service Management is for them to come up with an establishment that also gives the proposals of the requisite qualifications for one to be recruited as an enforcement officer. They were basically telling the county that they had put the cart before the horse and it would be impossible to solve that quagmire as it is. To date, the stand-off has never been resolved in many counties. I ... view
• 28 Nov 2018 in Senate: required number and what will be the proper number of enforcement officers per county. The CPSB is well--- view
• 28 Nov 2018 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, you may want to note that those who are leading in the disturbance in the House are the Senate Majority and Minority leaders. view
• 28 Nov 2018 in Senate: I wish I knew that the Senators were either held up in a meeting or that they were somewhere. I would have proposed that part of the Orders which were dropped out of the Order Paper today be considered later. This is because part of the amendments that I am making to the County Governments (Amendment) Bill (Senate Bills No. 13 of 2018) is to ensure that the chairperson of a CPSB be a human resource practitioner. I am making that proposal to establish some of these things that are now being proposed in this Bill. You need a properly ... view
• 28 Nov 2018 in Senate: record as having spoken about it. What is this hurry about arresting people on a Saturday or a Sunday yet they are not a flight risk and they are not threatening anyone. This kind of a provision may be subject to abuse. Somebody can fall foul with the governor and the enforcement officers can pounce on them then use this particular provision. It has its own limitations, but it is one provision that needs to be used sparingly. The right to bail is a fundamental human right and it well articulated under the Bill of rights in the Constitution. The ... view
• 28 Nov 2018 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, it is good to note that all the excitement that I am seeing in the House is courtesy of ‘baba’ . For those of us who missed that opportunity, I am sure that Sen. Orengo will organise for us to also get to meet him, and perhaps, get what he gave them for us to be equally excited. view
• 28 Nov 2018 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I have not defected and I do not intend to do so. However, ‘baba’ is an icon that we all admire and respect. Therefore, I will be more than glad to meet him. I met him a few days ago and I thought that he did not know me. However, he told Sen. Murkomen, “I know this young Senator. I see him on NTV on Tuesdays and he hits me so hard, but I do not take offence because he is a young man and he is still learning his ways.” In a very subtle way, he ... view
