• 29 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, the Chair of Budget and Appropriations Committee has tabled a letter from the National Treasury and his Communication to you in as far as Article 114 is concerned. On its implications on the amendments that hon. Mbadi and I have brought. I have no objection. Maybe, I will have time to look at it today and then come back to you. I have no objection. It is as far as Article 114 is concerned. So, I will read the document that has been tabled. view
• 29 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, we will also lay financial statements for the other two arms of Government; the Executive and Judiciary tomorrow in the afternoon. Hon. Members might think that they have no budgets. view
• 29 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I beg to lay the following Papers on the Table of the House today Wednesday, 29th April, 2015:- The Report of the Auditor-General on the Financial Statements of the Kenya Plant Health Inspectorate Service for the year ended 30th June, 2014, and the Certificate of the Auditor-General therein.

• 29 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I beg to support the position of the Committee. I want to just pick from the ruling you have read where my amendments and Hon. Mbadi’s amendments became victims of Article 114 of the Constitution. Whether we take the route of the Mediation Committee or not, we must agree with the position of the Committee. If you look at the Senate’s amendments on Clause 2, the Committee agreed with the amendments of the Senate. There was an amendment of the Senate on Clause 3(i) where they proposed a new Sub-section 2(a) and they deleted the Fertilizer Board of ... view
• 29 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: I have with Hon. Mbadi on the position of Article 114 in as far as that Bill on Retirement Benefits is concerned. If hon. Wamalwa and other Hon. Members read the reasons why the Departmental Committee on Agriculture, Livestock and Co-operatives has given in replacing the A-G with somebody from the Council of Governors, it makes sense. Those two positions are not at par. The A-G sits in certain boards to give legal advice on behalf of the whole country. In most boards, the A-G or his representative have substantive positions. I also see the sense that you cannot just ... view
• 29 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, you have partly responded on my behalf. We now have a new system where hon. Members can file Questions. They can even file Private Members’ Questions that can be answered within 24 hours. I will consult with my friend, Hon. Kaluma later so that we draft the same Question and ask the Attorney- General of the Republic of Kenya to be here next Tuesday so that he can answer it. Hon. Speaker, ten months and he had not reminded me! Hon. Kaluma is my very good friend but he should know we have other serious matters to deal ... view
• 29 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: among the Cabinet Secretaries who will come before the House Committees. The Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs is here. We will ask the Attorney-General to appear before the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal to answer that pertinent Question on the fate of the judges. I ask for his indulgence. It was not deliberate, it is only that there are too many things happening. view
• 29 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I beg to move the following Motion:- THAT, pursuant to the provisions of the Standing Order 30(3)(b), this House resolves to hold a Sitting on Thursday, 30th April, 2015 between 9.30 a.m. and 1.00 p.m. This is a decision of the House Business Committee last night. Without anticipating debate, the House is scheduled to proceed for a long recess tomorrow in accordance with the Calendar of the House. This has occasioned the need to have a Morning Sitting tomorrow to conclude a number of pending businesses, which are scheduled for the Third Session. These include:- (i) The consideration ... view
• 29 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. In my opinion, these are serious reforms of our procurement laws. If the value of a contract reaches Kshs5 billion, it is good for the Cabinet and the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the country to be aware. We have seen situations where Cabinet Secretaries are impeached The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 29 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: for something done at the lower level, which they may not even be aware of; like in respect of contracts of Kshs10 billion. Their names come here and they are taken to the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC). This law gives them more responsibilities. They can never again say that they are not aware of a particular contract. Secondly, if a particular contract has gone through the Cabinet, chaired by the President, and serious corruption issues are raised, then that will also have an effect on the entire Government. I am sure that when people realise that a contract is ... view
