• 8 Aug 2024 in Senate: A major hallmark of Part 2 of the Senate Calendar were resolutions that we gave to the various committees. Therefore, it is my sincere hope that these chairpersons will comply with the resolutions of the House. Concerning the business of the Senate, the status of legislative business is as follows- There are 54 Bills that are pending conclusion in the Senate, of which 42 are at the Second Reading, while 12 are at the Committee of the Whole stage. There are 21 Motions that are pending conclusion, 20 Petitions that are due for reporting by the respective Standing Committees and ... view

• 8 Aug 2024 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would suggest that the Senate, at a sitting of the Committee of the Whole, invites the CoB and the Cabinet Secretary for National Treasury. Those are the only two offices who can help us to review this matter objectively. As a matter of fact, there is a pending bills committee that was gazetted about two months ago. However, they have taken inordinately long to review the pending bills both at county and national level. I agree with the findings of the Senate, that the matter of pending bills is perhaps greater than all these other crises ... view
• 8 Aug 2024 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, that is the request, given that on the same day, the Cabinet Secretary for National Treasury, Hon. John Mbadi, will be appearing before us to respond to the Questions I have listed here. Since they will jointly be here, we can transact that business before he leaves the plenary. view
• 8 Aug 2024 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I will try to be quick. On this issue of tea raised by Sen. Cherarkey, we share partly in the blame as a Senate. For about three months now, the Tea (Amendment) Bill (Senate Bills No.1 of 2023) has been at the Committee of the Whole stage. With the Chairpersons of the Standing Committee on Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries being here, tea farmers are looking up to this House to resolve their issues. If we cannot find time to consider a Bill that is at the Third Reading for three good months, then what other business do ... view
• 8 Aug 2024 in Senate: proper direction. While many of our athletes are talented and can make do despite our disorganization, the truth of the matter, whether we like it or not, is that science has caught up with talent. Other people have learned how to do this art, despite them not being as talented as our athletes are. They come into this country study, train with us in Iten and then they disappear in January, to practice back in their country for the final race at the Olympic time. We must as well come up with better solutions on how to manage our athletes. ... view
• 8 Aug 2024 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I would wish to point Sen. Cherarkey to today's Order Paper on Order No.23. The Intergovernmental Relations (Amendment) Bill (Senate Bill No.12 of 2024) addresses your concern. It does exactly what you are proposing. I thank you. view
• 8 Aug 2024 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I beg to move that the Intergovernmental Relations Amendment Bill, (Senate Bill No.12 of 2024), be now read a Second Time. This is a very simple and straightforward Bill. It is something that we have debated before and tried to bring consensus on it. Sen. M. Kajwang’ and Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale will remember the very difficult relationships we have had between the Senate and the Council of Governors (CoG). In fact, in our initial Report of the Senate Committee on Finance and Budget, we pointed out to the Controller of Budget (CoB) that it was illegal and ... view
• 8 Aug 2024 in Senate: Just by way of background, this Bill was first published on 12th May, 2024 as Bill No.12 of 2024. This Bill seeks to amend the already existing Intergovernmental Relations Act of 2012. Remember that this Bill was actually passed pre-devolution. These are part of what you would call, ‘the Naivasha Bills’. I do not know if Sen. Mungatana was in Naivasha; I suspect he was. Yes, so my memory is right. That was when they were setting up the various enabling legislations to support devolution. At that point, this was mostly about theory and had very little to do with ... view
