• 3 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: I do not know why the Deputy Speaker is opposed to my request for Caleb to second. There is something he knows that I am not aware of. view
• 3 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: The Hon. Deputy Speaker is your deputy but from where he sits, he is really intimidating the Member of Soy. He is telling him that the Hon. Speaker will leave the Chair and he will deal with him. view
• 3 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I think this is a very good amendment because at least it gives a threshold that a Member must be supported by at least one quarter of the Members of the respective House. At least the House now has powers because the way we nominate commissioners, we can remove them but again it cannot be abused. So, the threshold is very high. Even the allegations have been set, for example, serious violation of the Constitution, gross misconduct and physical and mental incapacity. I really wish we do not get a commissioner who becomes physically and mentally ... view
• 3 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: What is out of order? You are a member of a party with 25 MPs. view
• 3 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: Yes. When you compare with a party like the Jubilee Party which has got 170 Members compared to 23 or 24, it becomes small. When you are compared with the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) with more than 70 MPs, relatively you are small. So, I support. view
• 3 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: This is a very important amendment. People should not think of it in terms of money. It is like if a Member has a petition from his constituency; Parliament can give him the services like a clerk and a legal person to assist him outside Parliament. They can go together to his constituency. They can create a secretariat for him so that what the Member brings from his constituency is something that PSC can also invest in. We are saying this is very important. If a Member has a problem in his constituency today, Parliament can provide the necessary technical ... view
• 3 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I oppose this amendment which proposes to delete the sub-clauses. This is the Parliamentary Service Commission. For the first time, the leadership of the Commission are not Members. The Bill is very clear under Clause 13(3) that a person co-opted under Subsection (2) shall have no right to vote at any meeting of the committee. The Whips and the leadership might sometimes be asked to attend the Commission meetings to present the grievances of our Members. We have not been given voting rights, and we will not vote. We represent Members. The Whips represent Members and ... view
• 3 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, with a lot of respect to Hon. Keynan and the Chair, I have a problem with this amendment. Who are the commissioners? They are elected from Members of Parliament. view
• 3 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: I was wondering how you can tell Members of Parliament to have 10 years public service. view
• 3 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I thank the Chair of the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs. Currently and historically, the Clerks of Parliament even before the promulgation of the new Constitution and before the bicameral Parliament, used to be civil servants. So, we must go according to other jurisdictions. In the UK, the Clerk is the Principal Constitutional Adviser to the Houses. Secondly, he is not a civil servant and is supposed to be politically impartial. I support the amendment because we must insulate the Clerks. Hon. Keynan has an issue because Clause 19 sets out the Clerk shall, ... view
