• 27 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I beg to move that the Kenya Heroes Bill be now read a second time. This Bill is coming at a time when Kenya is celebrating 50 years since it was born. The main objective of this Bill, the Kenya Heroes Bill 2013, is to fundamentally develop an appropriate legal framework in order to do the following: One, to have a clear, effective, and an impartial system of identifying and honouring the national heroes of this country. This is in line with our national values as per the Constitution. This Bill defines our heroes as people ... view
• 27 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: assistance for them individually and their dependants. For the first time, this Bill creates a fund for our national heroes. Part IV of the Bill sets out the procedure, the mechanism of identification and declaration of a national hero. In this part of the Bill, it is intended that the procedure should have full public participation when identifying and when nominating heroes. This has been very cumbersome. In all the successive Governments and all the successive Parliaments our country did not have somebody somewhere who would sit and identify who became a national hero. This Bill at Part IV creates ... view
• 27 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: have a legal framework in place that will regulate the selection, the identification, the funding, and all the other issues that relate to the national heroes. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am sure Kenyans are good in doing business. There are generics, fake and originals. When it comes to our national heroes, they are original. You cannot have a generic or a fake hero. This Bill is bringing sanity to the business of identifying, funding and recognizing men and women of this country who, in their different capacities, have made achievements and progress. view
• 27 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I request the hon. Member for “Gichigi”, the guy who sent home the former great Minister for Finance, Amos Kimunya, to second this Bill. view
• 27 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I beg to move the following Procedural Motion:- THAT, notwithstanding the provisions of Standing Order No.127(4) this House resolves to reduce the referral period of the Value Added Tax (Amendment) Bill, National Assembly Bill No.37 of 2013 to the relevant Departmental Committee from 20 days to eight days. view
• 27 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, just like I stated earlier in the morning, we have a challenge as per the Standing Orders that when a Bill has been published and it has not reached the Second Stage, if the House goes on recess, then that Bill becomes invalid. It has to start again during the second session of the House, hopefully next year. That means there are a lot of costs involved. Of course, again, the consultations by the Committees that looked at the Bill during the pre-publication period will have to start afresh. view
• 27 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: We felt that this is a small Bill and we could reduce the referral period to the Committee. Hon. John Mbadi consulted the leadership and we have discussed this in the House Business Committee (HBC). The HBC Members are agreeable that we reduce the number of days from 20 to eight days. view
• 27 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: I would like to ask hon. Mbadi, now that he has an interest in this, to give us more and second this Procedural Motion. view
• 27 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, Sir, I beg to move that the Statute Law (Miscellaneous Amendments) Bill, 2013, be read a Second Time. view
• 27 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: The Statute Law (Miscellaneous Amendments) Bill, 2013, is in keeping with the practice of taking minor amendments, which do not merit the publication of a separate Bill and consolidating them into one Bill. I want to state from the outset that this Bill was read the First Time and has gone to the Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs after we reduced the referral period to 14 days. We intend to bring it through the House Business Committee as the last one, so that Members can go through it. I will go very fast on just a number of highlights. view
