• 4 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: publication period so that Hon. Kioni, the Chair, can start public participation. If we succeed on this one, it has better and broad representation because women, youth, marginalised people and people with special interests will all be catered for. There is also a Bill to actualise Article 127 of the Constitution, which is being drafted by Hon. Shollei. We will also fast-track that Bill. So, we want to tell the Chief Justice to relax. To dissolve Parliament is not as easy as having a birthday party. Those people who think Parliament can be dissolved are wrong. Therefore, we will keep ... view
• 4 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, Hon. Shollei was not here yesterday. I want to give her two minutes so that she can speak to this and then I reply. view
• 4 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I have not delegated to her the powers to reply. view
• 4 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: I thank the House for very robust and intelligent evidence based on the Constitution on this matter of this Motion. I saw the leadership in the Senate so agitated last night on television Both Hon. Leader of the Minority Party and Hon. Leader of the Majority Party; at one time I thought they have lost their special people. I want to say this on record; we are not intimidated and have no intentions of intimidating. view
• 4 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: We have no intention of blackmailing, but we have the intention to protect the Constitution that all of us used when we were being sworn in. I want those two senior counsels, the Hon. Leader of the Minority Party and the Hon. Leader of the Majority Party, to engage us on some particular provisions of the Constitution on Article 94 that establishes the role of Parliament, Article 95 that establishes the role of the National Assembly, Article 96 on the role of the Senate and Article 97 on membership. Further, I want them to engage us on Articles 109, 110, ... view
• 4 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: Each work given either to the Senate or the National Assembly must be read together with the functions provided in the Fourth Schedule. The Constitution of Kenya is one of the most robust constitutions. Whether a Bill will come to the National Assembly or go to the Senate, that decision does not lie with the 460 plus Members of the two Houses. That decision lies with the two Speakers of both Houses, the Hon. Speaker of the Senate and that of the National Assembly, under the Constitution. view
• 4 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: That question will only be decided when it arises. So, if there will be no question, there is nothing for the Hon. Speaker of the National Assembly to consult his counterpart. If the Bill coming from the Cabinet or State Office says this Bill does not concern counties and our legal team, Clerk of the National Assembly and the Hon. Speaker in their honest opinion feel that is the position then the question does not arise. Therefore, I also want to engage them on Article 108. I want to report to the House that today is a good day. The ... view
• 4 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: We must have the functions of the county assemblies as put in the Constitution because they have a role to play. The Senate and National Assembly also have roles to play. As I said yesterday, this baby called the Senate cannot be on milk throughout; it must learn to eat solid food. For eight years this baby has not walked, it is still on milk and is crawling everywhere in the precincts of the Legislature. We must tell this baby he is too old and cannot crawl everywhere. If that baby will not start eating solid food and stop crawling ... view
• 4 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: The National Assembly has nothing against the Senate, but we are telling them that they must exercise their mandate according to the Constitution. There is a provision which says that Parliament will exercise its authority in accordance with the Constitution. These Houses are not football clubs or the clubs in Muthaiga. We want to tell them that this House has the power to enact and participate in legislation. view
• 4 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: If we approve this Motion the House Business Committee will go ahead and engage with the Attorney-General and Committee of Experts on a number of areas that the Senate is overlapping when it comes to Committees and their functions. I want to tell Hon. Orengo and Hon. Murkomen that they are our friends and colleagues. We have nothing against them and they should not be very bitter. All we are saying is that we need to have a clear demarcation between the two Houses in accordance with the Constitution. There is no need to be emotional, go to court or ... view
