• 27 Nov 2014 in National Assembly: On a point of order, hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. view
• 27 Nov 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. The Constitution under Article 49 is very clear. It starts by saying “An arrested person has the right to” and thereafter there are many rights listed. Amongst the listed rights is the right to be before a court of law within 24 hours. The moment we are talking of a child, it makes it more necessary for the parents to know where he is. This is a good amendment, but I think we need to substitute the seven days with 24 hours so that we are in compliance with the Constitution. If it is ... view
• 27 Nov 2014 in National Assembly: Yes, hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I know this Bill is well intended and it is very good. The issue of being detained and the parents not knowing, especially of a child as I had said earlier; it is unlikely that the parents of that child would not have reported in any police station anywhere. Even when it is in Busia and you have the child in Nairobi, the parents in Busia would have gone to a police station in Busia and have recorded a statement that they have a child who is missing. That information is The electronic version of ... view
• 27 Nov 2014 in National Assembly: centrally with the police. I want us to be very careful that this particular law, rightfully as you guided us here, will be subject to misinterpretation. If somebody was to arrest a child, I am afraid that they would keep that child for a period longer than the one stipulated in the Constitution, before they present that child to a court of law or before they make the relative of that child know the whereabouts of the child. I think hon. Wetangula is also a lawyer, he will support that one. view
• 27 Nov 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I support this amendment. Not doing it would have made that particular law to be inconsistent with the Constitution. That would have amounted to denying the rights of the person to be heard in a court of law. I agree. The amendment on the fines; Subclause (9), is also good. I had suggested that we would have put it at more than Kshs500,000, but considering that the person being charged is a police officer, whose income might not permit for a fine bigger that this, Kshs500,000 is better than the Kshs200,000, which was earlier proposed. I ... view
• 27 Nov 2014 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
• 27 Nov 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. This is a very good part of the law. I must commend the Mover, hon. Chepkong’a. All the three main amendments proposed here, namely, under (i), (g) and (h) as well will ensure that there is fairness in that particular body. In particular, I want to commend him for including the Public Benefits Organization and people with disabilities. In the past, particularly the people with disabilities were not very much catered for. Hon. Mulu has asked for a clarification, but from what I know, the National Council of Persons with Disabilities is the only ... view

• 27 Nov 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, Temporary Deputy Speaker. I wanted to say from the outset that this is a great achievement because this is one of the constitutional Bills that this House was supposed to have passed. I am glad that this day we have managed to accomplish this. I think there are a lot of good things in this particular Bill. I believe that it is a Bill that will transform the manner in which persons who are detained are treated and their rights protected. It is a Bill that will revolutionize the way in which persons arrested or in custody are ... view
