30 Aug 2007 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, in fact, the Speaker's rules do not talk about hand bags. They talk about any item that can be used as a weapon and can carry things that cannot be explained. The Attorney-General can be allowed to keep his papers, but the hand bag must be taken outside!

28 Aug 2007 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is indeed the first time that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is giving its estimates. Due to that, there was a little hiccup when we were looking for the details of what the Minister was presenting. In the past when the Ministry's budget was being guillotined, there were many things that we wanted to question but we did not get the opportunity to. I hope that this would be the beginning of this Ministry being substantively analyzed and reviewed in future. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, when the Minister was moving his Vote, one of the ...

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the truth of the matter is that there is no woman senior enough to be able to sit there. We miss out on international postings because Kenyans tend to propose mainly men. In fact, in some cases, it is men who have already retired and spent a lot of time in the foreign service. Some of the countries where we have very serious economic interests are led by people who were ambassadors in the 1960s before some of us were even born. When will people of my generation be given the chance to represent Kenya in ...

23 Aug 2007 in National Assembly:
Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. On behalf of the Departmental Committee on Administration of Justice and Legal Affairs, I wish to elucidate the components within our Report. This Bill was forwarded to our Committee on 3rd July, 2007, and we went through it thoroughly.

After compiling our Report, we ...

23 Aug 2007 in National Assembly:
Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I wish the Attorney-General, who has been causing us delays with regard to moving this Bill, could listen to me considering that he has put us in waiting for all those weeks he was roaming around the world. We have also proposed some amendments on the Advocates Act, but those have been covered by our colleagues. We have proposed amendments on the Limitation of Actions, which have been well-explained by Mr. Muturi where there was this recommendation to have the law applied retroactively. We have deleted that component. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, on the ...

23 Aug 2007 in National Assembly:
Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, in this day of ICT, we need to advance our identification documentation. We are proposing to introduce a new Section 37 that will make our driving licences contain microchips so that a motorist who commits an accident can be easily identified. So, there is a lot of justification as to why we should have the microchip-based driving licences. I will not go into that, but those who want the details can have a look at our Report. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, on Page 1340 of the Bill, the Attorney-General proposes to amend the Hire ...
