• 1 Aug 2013 in National Assembly: On a point of order, hon. Speaker, Sir. I want to inform my very good friend, the Member for Homa Bay, that my Statement is full of flesh. It is far from being a skeleton; it is based on the law. In fact, I have given nothing else but the law. Section 33 of the NSSF Act, Cap.258, on the role of the Minister, and Clause 20(1) of the contract that Tom Odongo signed--- So, it is full of flesh and within the law. It is full of steak. I am a pastoralist. view
• 1 Aug 2013 in National Assembly: On a point of order, hon. Speaker, Sir. I have now known why the good lady for Homa Bay wanted information from my good friend, hon. Mbadi. His information was more of political overtones. view
• 1 Aug 2013 in National Assembly: The law is very clear. I want to jog the memory of hon. Mbadi that sacking did not start with this Government. They sacked me as an Assistant Minister and hon. William Ruto as a Minister for Agriculture. So, sacking did not start with Jubilee. It was in the Grand Coalition Government and it will be there. Despite your ethnic background, if you do not perform according to the performance contract that you signed, then you will be sacked. When people sign contracts, they must look at the clauses. Section 21 of the contract which Tom Odongo signed with the ... view
• 1 Aug 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, Sir, I agree. Already, the matter is before the Committee on Labour and Social Welfare. But further, Parliament has just received the NSSF amendment Act. If the hon. Member for Homa Bay was to amend this Act, Section 21; then this House has the powers. When this Bill is re-introduced in September, it will look at it. But the Constitution stipulated the functions of a Cabinet Secretary. Each and every institution that falls within that portfolio has its own regulations; which again are passed by Parliament. So, the Cabinet Secretary has stated that in sacking Mr. Tom Odongo, ... view
• 1 Aug 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, Sir, I also read a Statement from hon. Chris Wakhungu. If he has any clarification to seek, he can go ahead. I am sure he is happy because money has been paid and the doctors have called off the strike. view
• 1 Aug 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, Sir, in my Statement, I said that the Ministry of Health has already held discussions with KMPDU to mitigate against internal strikes. So, there is a discussion going and the other one was on--- view
• 1 Aug 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I am sure that the Health Bill is on its way to this House. That is why the Cabinet Secretary said that he was engaging the Treasury and the Transitional Authority (TA) to get a clear position on the functions and the budget for the devolved health services. I am sure that the Bill will be coming to this House once it goes through the key stakeholders; namely, the Constitution Implementation Commission (CIC), the Office of the Attorney-General, the Cabinet, the Law Reform Commission and more importantly, the TA. view
• 1 Aug 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I have a Statement to issue on behalf of the House Business Committee. view
• 1 Aug 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, pursuant to Standing Order No.44 (2), on behalf of the House Business Committee, I rise to issue a Statement on the business of the House for the weeks to come. view
• 1 Aug 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, through your indulgence, I want to withdraw this Motion as it raises issues about the Senate and the National Assembly. On the issue of Senators being appointed as Members of the Pan-African Parliament (PAP), the leadership of the National Assembly would like to consult with the leadership of the Senate and, hopefully, bring back the Motion. view
