26 Feb 2014 in National Assembly:
On a point of order, hon. Speaker. The Supplementary Budget, both for Recurrent and Development Expenditure, which of course, has been laid on the Table of this House, is very clear. An amount of Kshs4.6 billion is in this Supplementary Budget to cater for outstanding allowances of the police and the Prisons Service. Another amount of Kshs3.4 billion is for security operations and evacuation of Kenyans in South Sudan. Hon. Speaker, we have money earmarked for the Department of Defence and National Intelligence Service (NIS). If you look at the books, you will see the figures. Therefore, I want my ...

26 Feb 2014 in National Assembly:
On the outset, I want to support it and even make it clearer. The Kshs40 million for the National Gender and Equality Commission was money that was allocated in the last financial year, but was unspent. It is a pending bill. That item has already been completed. It is a bill to be paid to a Kenyan service provider. Where are we getting that from? I am sure the National Treasury will agree with me. If we have allocated 80 million to the Parliamentary Service Commission, it is prudent to say: Let us give them even Kshs40 million and, by ...

25 Feb 2014 in National Assembly:
Hon. Speaker, I think with your indulgence, you need to give direction on Statements. That is because we are having a situation where a Committee member is seeking a Statement from his own Committee. When they are doing oversight over that department, they can easily call the Permanent Secretary or the Cabinet Secretary because that is their mandate. Ultimately, I think in the future, you need to give direction. That is because a Member seeking a Statement from the Chair and the Chair saying he will answer in three weeks is not right. It is even faster when the Committee ...

25 Feb 2014 in National Assembly:
Hon. Speaker, I share the concerns of hon. Onyancha. Look at all the Chairs apart from very few; they are missing. I said apart from very few and I can count the few who are here and also their Vice-Chairs. When you are a Chair and a Vice- Chair, you have a serious obligation to this House. The starting point is that the Chairs and the Vice-Chairs must be here. Secondly, a Member will ask for an answer in three weeks. I want to confirm to you that even Statements sought by Members on behalf of Chairs, are not even ...
