• 19 Mar 2014 in National Assembly: business. A time will come when this Bill will not be discussed at the Second Reading Stage until cows come home. Last week, we agreed in the House Business Committee, but I do not want to give a premature statement, that if we still have time today, we can finish it. Hon. Wambugu, that burning issue on the air transport will be handled at the Committee Stage. It will not serve you in the Second Reading. There are so many points of order; I want you to allow me to give my contribution for only five minutes. The genesis of ... view
• 19 Mar 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, the Government noted with great concern the Press reports in general. I am sure my colleagues will agree with me that the moment we passed the VAT Bill, 2013, unscrupulous businessmen decided to put VAT on items which were not supposed to be VAT-rated. You saw Kenyan businessmen being taken to court. The media was very good to us and they showed it. Therefore, there are people who want to misuse even the laws we passed here. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, the Government has also warned traders who adjusted their prices without reasonable cause. view

• 19 Mar 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, on the technical terms, I have said it on the Floor of the House many times. It is the business of hon. Members to read Bills; on what is zero-rated and what is exempted. This is because if you do not know the difference between those two, then in the first place, you cannot even get the discussion. Therefore, people should know what is zero-rated and what is exempted. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I was his senior and we were in the same university. Therefore, he is one of my disciples. In fact, we were in ... view
• 19 Mar 2014 in National Assembly: I am an authority. I have the microphone. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, as a Member for Garissa Town, who served in the last Parliament and who speaks English, and can read the Standing Orders, it has never happened until as late as yesterday, when we were dealing with the Budget and Appropriations Committee Report, that the Speaker raised it. When a Motion goes to the next sitting, the person who was speaking last is given the first chance to contribute. I remember hon. Mary Emaase had a balance of eight minutes. This is not a political rally or a political ... view

• 19 Mar 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, all my amendments touch on Islamic Marriage, as far as this Bill is concerned. I agree with Clause 48 (c), but I want to make it very clear, if you listened to me, what I am amending in Clause 2. This is a law that is going to be there for posterity and I will be very happy with it. In Clause 2, I am introducing something called mahari which is in relation to Islamic Marriage; meaning a mandatory gift given by a bridegroom to the bride in consideration of marriage. Now my problem is this--- view

• 19 Mar 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, my problem is that, this is a law that is meant for all Kenyans. In the way, it will carry each and every section of our society. I do not want to have Section 48 as a safeguard for me. I want, as we go through this law up to Clause 2, issues of the Islamic faith to appear in that law. For example, in Clause 2 of that law, I am bringing you a definition of what Islamic Marriage is and what mahari is. Many people might not know what mahari is. But for many ... view
