• 2 Jun 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I stand to support this Motion. I think it is high time Parliament respected documents that are placed on the Table of this House. The anti-corruption institutions in this country are of paramount importance to the nation. Unless we build on our current institutions, unless we strengthen the laws we have in this country, and unless Parliament asserts itself in giving the KACC prosecutorial powers, then the war against corruption will be a mirage. The Committee has submitted two names and, as a Member of this House and the Government, I have no problem with ... view

• 2 Jun 2009 in National Assembly: In conclusion, I want to say that names have been presented and the Departmental Committee on Administration of Justice and Legal Affairs did its work and if people feel that they have a contrary view or incriminating information not available to this House, that should have been availed. view

• 28 May 2009 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I beg to reply. (a) The ranches in Taita District basically fall within two jurisdictions, either under group ownership or individual private sector ownership. Although those are private properties, my Ministry is aware of the challenges of over-stocking that those ranches face. The issue of over-stocking comes when private ranch owners enter into a mutual private lease agreements with the cattle owners in other parts of the country to graze in their respective ranches. From the available information at the Ministry, cattle owners from other parts of the country agree with ranch owners to use their ... view

• 28 May 2009 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, the movement of cattle to Taita- Taveta District goes back to 1963. If the hon. Member wants me to table that information, then that is a different Question. However, documents issued by respective Government officers indicate that between 2008 and May, 2009, 2,774 head of cattle came to Taita- Taveta District. Other livestock were brought to Taita Taveta District in 2005, 2004 and 2001. view
• 28 May 2009 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, in this country and particularly in the Northern Corridor, all the way from North Eastern Province to the coastal ranches, there is a specific livestock route, holding grounds and ranches. They are owned by both the public and private sector. When I talk about the “public” I mean the Galana’s one million acres ranch owned by the Agricultural Development Corporation (ADC), which is under the Ministry of Agriculture. The livestock held up at the coastal ranches are more than 80,000; that is all the way from Tana River to the border between Kenya and Tanzania. If ... view
• 28 May 2009 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, with regard to the point of order, I assure the hon. Member that action will be taken against the people who are keeping animals along the railway line and public roads. We will do that in collaboration with the Ministry of State for Provincial Administration and Internal Security. With regard to Mr. Mungatana’s question, it is true that we offer technical advice, but specifically on private ranches. We advise on the number of animals that can be kept in a particular ranch after we have known its demarcation and size. We know the number of livestock ... view
• 28 May 2009 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, we are not aware, but I can assure the hon. Member that the moment we get information that our technical team are colluding with illegal private animal owners, we will take action immediately. view
