26 Jun 2013 in National Assembly:
Hon. Speaker, I will start with hon. Gumbo, my good friend. He raised the issue of the counties which have had security issues in the first 60 days of this Government’s leadership. These are the Tana Delta, Bungoma, Busia, Samburu, West Pokot, Turkana, Mandera and parts of Wajir. Those are hardly eight counties of the 47 counties. So, 80 per cent of Kenya is safe under the leadership of the Jubilee Government. That was on the number of the counties. On the issue of Article 27(4) under the Bill of Rights, there is no discrimination. The 372 health centres are ...

Hon. Speaker, patience pays. If by the end of my reply, I will not have touched on the wrangles between the Chairman of the NPSC and the Inspector- General, then the Member can say that I ignored his request. I will come to it.

The Member for Kibra, a very important constituency in the Republic of Kenya, asked about the youth fund and whether the Government can align that to the CDF. The Jubilee Government has put the CDF, the youth fund and ...

I may not be a medical doctor but I am an expert in my own field that I studied at university. However, hon. Speaker, I think you are right. Hon. Eseli, as a medical doctor, raised an issue that the Jubilee Government should sleep over. They have given free deliveries and then what is next? I am sure the infrastructure is already there in hospitals but children delivered with some difficulties will always be at our health facilities.

Hon. Dennitah raised a very fundamental issue on free deliveries – what about mother to child HIV transmission? I am sure in all our health facilities that issue has already been taken care of. However, I am sure more funds should be given to make sure that even that specific element within the deliveries must be taken care of. On the Women Enterprise Development Fund (WEDF), I want to tell my good friend, hon. Dennitah, Member for Migori County that the Jubilee Government is a Government that respects women. I am sure the WEDF will be structured and the leadership ...

If your constituency or area falls under the programme of Agricultural Accelerated Input Access Programme--- As a Member of Parliament, you must be aware of programmes, whether undertaken by the Government or international organizations in your locality.

Kinoti on the first one, but for his benefit the procurement amendment law is coming to this House, and 30 per cent which the President of the Jubilee Government promised will be discussed; the law will be amended. I ...
