6 Jun 2013 in National Assembly:
Hon. Speaker, Sir, first, I want to confirm that under the Constitution, I am the Leader of the Majority Party. In all presidential democracies, it is the Leader of the Majority Party who brings sentiments of the Government to Parliament and to hon. Members. I have accepted that I will take hon. Ng’ongo’s message but I will amend it and say that every group in this country has somebody it adores politically. There are those who adore the former Vice President and Minister for Home Affairs; there are those who adore the current Deputy President; there are those who adore ...

6 Jun 2013 in National Assembly:
Hon. Speaker, Sir, I think the Chairpersons of these Committees have started behaving like Ministers in the last Parliament. This is not acceptable. We used to tell the President to whip his team. It is now my business to make sure that if these Chairpersons do not come to the House then they will be whipped. I can assure that the same will happen to the Chairperson of this particular Committee. Hon. Speaker, Sir, in two weeks time the statement will be ready.

Hon. Speaker, Sir, I stand to support this report. From the outset, I want to thank the Chair of the Budget and Appropriations Committee for this report that will help us solve the issue of the Division of Revenue Bill. I also want to thank hon.

The Division of Revenue Bill came to this House and Article 201(b)(i) of the Constitution specifically states that:- “( b ) The public finance system shall promote an equitable society, and in particular— (ii) revenue raised nationally shall be shared equitably among national and county governments”.

6 Jun 2013 in National Assembly:
The Constitution has specifically given definite roles to the two Houses. Article 95 gives the role of the National Assembly explicitly and the Bills and the issues that the National Assembly will dispose of. Article 96 does the same for the Senate. From the outset, I want to confirm that it is the Kenyan people in their numbers who sought for a devolved system of Government. It is the Kenyan people who again sought to establish a bicameral parliament. It is the same people of Kenya who again, in making this Constitution, created the definite roles of these two. When ...
