Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want the Assistant Minister to confirm to this House and the nation whether some of the intermediary financial institutions they are using are Islamic Sharia compliant.

9 Aug 2012 in National Assembly:
Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I stand to support this Bill. This is a very important Bill. Transfer of power from one Government to the other, all the world, particularly in Africa, has been an issue in terms of providing stability and peace to people in a country. This Bill provides a framework to facilitate an organized hand-over of power in a very peaceful manner. This will send a message to presidential candidates and political parties that Kenya has come of age; that Kenya respects the rule of law and that democratic elections must be respected across the board.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want the Assistant Minister to confirm to this House that the allocation of resources in that Ministry is skewed towards particular regions like Ms. Shakila Abdalla has said.

Could he confirm?

8 Aug 2012 in National Assembly:
Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I stand to support this Bill. This is a very important Bill that will spur economic growth and investment in this country. Why PPP? Some reasoning is that the masses, the citizens expect governments to provide all services and this puts governments under pressure in terms of performance, coupled with very limited resource.

This Bill is giving an opportunity to the Government and to the public sector; that now you have opened the gates to more capital investment ...

8 Aug 2012 in National Assembly:
Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, this Bill that has come to this House this time through the Minister for Finance will create a very conducive environment for the private sector. The private sector in this country has been doing very well but the engine of growth, the 10 per cent or 15 per cent that we anticipate in economic growth and our GDP is a result of the role the private sector plays. This has opened the private sector to a bigger opportunity by partnering with the public sector. The participation of the private sector in this engagement gives the ...
