(iii) Group schemes; these schemes are modelled to standardize fees paid by each customer benefitting from the electrification; this again enhances affordability. The KPLC will invest in supplying the pioneer customers and recover the cost in latter customers as they pay for connections. (iv) Partnership with the donor community and the use of revolving funds; the Kenya Power and donor community have initiated a Stima Loan Scheme which facilitates access to credit by the customers who are unable to raise the standard connection fees, thus creating more demand and extended infrastructure across the country. The Statement on the roads is ...

14 Nov 2013 in National Assembly:
Hon. Speaker, Sir, I want to thank hon. Gumbo because the information he sought is so crucial even for the House. The total length of power distribution lines in the country is information that each Member and the Committee on Energy, Communication and Information will need. Then the one on the length of the tarmac road is information that the Government has given. I also want to agree with him that 50 years that Kenya has been independent, which we are going to celebrate, in terms of road infrastructure, I am sure many will not celebrate. It is upon this ...

Hon. Deputy Speaker, you need to give clarification to the House. What we are seeing is a Member of a Committee seeking clarification from his Chair on a matter in which he was involved. We need to have clarification. The Member for Naivasha is a Member of the Lands Committee and now he is seeking a clarification from his own Chair. This is ridiculous. We need direction.

On a point of order, hon. Deputy Speaker. I think Wednesday afternoon was only meant for receiving requests and not response to requests for Statements. That was the procedure that the Speaker gave in his Communication. It is only for requests and not for Chairpersons to give responses.

Hon. Deputy Speaker, just a word of advice to Chairs of Committees, that when you are given an answer by the Executive, please, before you bring it to the House synchronise it. If you feel that it is not sufficient, do not bring it. Return it to them. It is very unfortunate for my good Chair, the Chair of the Committee on Education, Research and Technology to read the report of the DEO, the report of the County Director of Education and report of the Cabinet Secretary. The final report that The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is ...

comes to the House should be a summary; a conclusive report from the Cabinet Secretary. So, you have the leeway to say that the answer you got was insufficient and go back. So, we should not come with all the answers that have been given by different stakeholders in the same Ministry in future.

Hon. Deputy Speaker, on the outset, I want to say that the Statement that was sought by the Member for Kieni has muted into many other things. From where I sit, I will not shy away. I will answer the questions in either their mutation form or the original form.

I want to start with what the Deputy Minority Leader said. I want to confirm that, from where I sit and from the evidence provided, there is nobody in the Government who coached witnesses to fix hon. William Ruto, we heard it from the legal team of hon. Ruto in their presentations. So, we do not want this matter to be political. I want to confirm to all and sundry that this matter will not be an entry point for dividing the Jubilee Coalition. We are firmly united. Whether one praises one side or the other, the URP and TNA ...

Secondly, of course, the Deputy Leader of the Minority Party has also sent an appeal to all the politicians in the country to speak only when they are sober, particularly over the weekends. It depends on where you slept and where you had been but, please, let us speak with sobriety, so that we send the right message to the country.

Hon. Deputy Speaker, I disagree with the Leader of Minority Party because we do not come from the same coalition. He cannot gag the House. Hon. Members will debate 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.
