• 18 Jun 2020 in National Assembly: I am concluding. The Departmental Committee on Finance and National Planning is more like the Budget and Appropriations Committee. During this period, they are very busy. I am sure both Committees have done a wonderful job. I also want to thank His Excellency the President on the measures he has taken, including the ones in the Budget to cushion Kenyans and businesses against the adverse impact of COVID-19. With those many remarks, I beg to second. view
• 18 Jun 2020 in National Assembly: 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
• 16 Jun 2020 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, I beg to lay the following Papers on the Table of the House: The Budget Statement for Fiscal Year 2020/2021. Financial Statement for the Financial Year 2020/2021. Estimates of Revenue, Grants and Loans for the Government of Kenya for the year ending 30th June 2021.

• 16 Jun 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I thank the Committee Chair for that very elaborate Statement. As a person who comes from a region that has been a recipient of relief food, and looking at the billions of shillings that we allocate to relief food, this House and the Government generally must now start thinking outside the box. I will be suggesting in future, maybe through the Government and through this House, that we turn the relief food into cash transfers. That would be a better way of dealing with the problem. There is pilferage. Let us not run away from ... view
• 16 Jun 2020 in National Assembly: In fact, if we give the people a little cash, they can buy what they want from the nearby shopping centres. That will even improve the economy of those shopping centres in the rural areas. I want to make it very clear, let me not hide, that I have even discussed this matter with the President. We are reading from the same page, that this House allocates billions of shillings to relief food. Why can we not give those billions of shillings to the affected people even if it means every person receiving Kshs3,000 or Kshs2,000? As they buy unga ... view
• 16 Jun 2020 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, I think as a House, we must make a determination. When somebody seeks a Statement, it is important, morally right and decent for him to be here. Otherwise, I think you need to make a decision on that. Chairs cannot be reading Statements and yet the people who sought them are not here. I think going forward, you should be asking if the person is present and if he is not, then the Statement should just be tabled for that person to read. Unless he is playing politics... I thought this was Hon. Abdullswamad’s pet The electronic ... view
• 16 Jun 2020 in National Assembly: subject. In fact, he has asked for three Statements relating to the same matter. I want the people of Mvita to listen to me. If, indeed, your Member was very serious, he should have been here. The Chair has read a very comprehensive Statement and the first person to have been given opportunity is him. Secondly, just before Hon. Koinange sat down, it was the Member for Mathare. He sought a Statement, but he is not here. There is also the other one on relief food. view
• 16 Jun 2020 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, I really want to thank the Chair of the Departmental Committee on Transport, Public Works and Housing. Just like the Leader of the Minority said, we need to balance. We cannot build a railway and plan to build it all the way to Kisumu and do not carry anything. Times change. In the old days, people used camel transport where I come from, but now they use different means of transport. So, I think as a country, we cannot build a railway, but we must also do public participation. Secondly, if you allow me, I think Hon. ... view
• 16 Jun 2020 in National Assembly: You cannot impeach a Cabinet Secretary for a decision of the East African Heads of State. The impeachment must be in tandem with the role and function of that Cabinet Secretary as specified in the Constitution. So, I do not want to call it a character, but I want to educate the young Members. Please, read - and I am ready to give a copy - that Communication. It was after Hon. Anne Waiguru’s impeachment of 2016. view
• 16 Jun 2020 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, I have a lot of respect for Hon. Kathuri Murungi, but when you hold a position of responsibility like Hon. John Mbadi and myself, sometimes it is good to educate our colleagues. It was out of procedure. That is the reason I said the other day that when the Speaker makes a communication, even the first Speaker, the second… view
