29 Oct 2019 in National Assembly:
Part VI provides the condition in which you can transfer personal data outside Kenya. How do you transfer? What are the conditions? You cannot just share data that belongs to our country with another country or entity in another country. Certain conditions are provided and safeguards that must be met prior to transfer of personal data of an entity or person. Part VII of the Bill deals with enforcement provisions on how data commissioner may among others, process complaints made to him regarding any of the provisions. This part deals with enforcement where an individual or an entity - both ...

29 Oct 2019 in National Assembly:
The last part provides for offences including unlawful disclosure of personal data. These days a blogger or a Government agency can put personal data on their pages. How do you deal with that? Do they have powers to make it public? Can they make unlawful disclosure of personal data? There are general penalties in that last section and development of codes. In that area, we will bring some amendments. The Committee has recommended 2 per cent, but it depends on the size of a company. When you talk about the turnover of a company, to some companies, 2 per cent ...

29 Oct 2019 in National Assembly:
Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Hon. Osotsi is an expert in this area, but he has made an allegation that there are hotels in this country that put CCTV cameras in rooms. Following the various videos that circulate in the social media, can he identify that hotel so that people can be very careful? Can he name those hotels? I am also in the hotel business but my hotel is not one of them. When you say that there are hotels which install CCTV cameras in rooms, can you name them so that we can tell Members to be very careful ...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I really want to thank the Members who contributed immensely to this very important piece of legislation. The principal object of this Bill is to give effect to the right to privacy as provided for in Article 31(c) and (d) of the Constitution by setting out the requirements and the mechanism for the protection of personal data processed by either public or private entities. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, further, this Bill outlines and gives priority to key principles that should govern how we process personal data by any entity while setting out the rights ...

29 Oct 2019 in National Assembly:
We are the leaders of this country and we are supposed to offer solutions. I remember we sat in a meeting with officials from the Ministry of Interior and Coordination of National Government in the presence of leaders from both counties. The chair of the meeting was the CS. Present were also the Governors of Tana River, Garissa and Kitui. Garissa County was present because we share a border with Kitui. We never agreed that there will be demolitions. On the contrary we agreed to go and do peace meetings so that our people would live together. Those from Kitui, ...

29 Oct 2019 in National Assembly:
The mandate of the National Police Service is not to demolish schools and homesteads. You can choose a friend but not a neighbour. The people of Tana River and Kitui counties have lived together for many years and will do that for many more years to come. Neither of the two communities can be transferred to another part of Kenya. I ask the leadership of both counties not to take that route of Hon. Charity Ngilu. She has history. A video is going round. Politically, right now she is doing badly in Kitui County. I know her because I have ...

So, I ask Hon. Members to look for solutions. I agree with Hon. Wario that the NPS has no mandate of destroying property and risk lives of the citizens of this country. The Inspector- General must be told in very clear terms that his action was wrong and those people must be compensated.

17 Oct 2019 in National Assembly:
Hon. Speaker, you have read the President’s Memorandum. I think as the Committee discusses it, they need to find a transitional clause on when it will take effect and what happens to the millions of Kenyans who are now paying interest at a certain percentage. We need to include a transitional clause.
