8 May 2019 in National Assembly:
Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I support Hon. Millie Odhiambo. Seven days is too short for anything to be conducted. So, we revert back to 14 days. I would like to share with friends that we are now dealing with contractors. Everybody has left and we now have contractors. We must be very careful.

8 May 2019 in National Assembly:
I have Section 78 of the Public Procurement and Asset Disposal Act of 2015 here. You know I am digital. Come this side, I will show you. Section 78 says: “An accounting officer of a procuring entity shall appoint a tender opening committee specifically for the procurement in accordance with the following requirements and such other requirement as maybe prescribed”. It is there. We should just move. It has been amended, you have the old one. These books have not been updated. That is why we have these gadgets.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, before you rule, can you ask the Office of the Clerk to update these books?

8 May 2019 in National Assembly:
Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I want to support this amendment but I want to tell Moses Kuria it is not practicable for 30 days, maybe he moves a further amendment to 60 days. I do not think you can be considered when you submit your invoice and when you supply. With the payment system under the new system of IFMIS, we need to ask him to do a further amendment of 60 days or 45 days. We do not want to pass a law that will not be implemented. It would be very difficult to implement it. If you do ...

8 May 2019 in National Assembly:
Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I think we need to discuss this more, with your permission. What Hon. T.J. raised in Article 114 is important. Parliament cannot wait for the National Treasury. We do not work at their whims. They were given an opportunity, they could not make it and then the Speaker made a ruling. That is why it is even on the Order Paper, after Article 114 of the Constitution. Whatever letter Hon. Ichung’wah is reading is not even physical. He is reading it on his phone and it has not been received. No, that is your phone. If ...

8 May 2019 in National Assembly:
Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I do not know whether you have seen that Section 87B is again subject to Article 114 of the Constitution before we even discuss it. So, if that is the case, that amendment must be dropped. The Speaker ruled on the other one and not on this one.

8 May 2019 in National Assembly:
Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I also want to bring to the attention of the House, that as we speak today in the last 10 years the National Treasury has not issued any promissory notes. The history behind it as you know was discarded after the Anglo-leasing scandal.

8 May 2019 in National Assembly:
I want Hon. T. J. to listen to me. As we stay here today there is no issuance of promissory notes by the National Treasury. But, this was done after the many scandals including Anglo- leasing. Today, I can tell you we are fighting corruption. The moment, as a House, we introduce the issuance of promissory notes by contractors they can go to my constituency and do shoddy work or not do it and sue the Government because they are holding that note. I am telling you. So, as much as we feel we are helping our people to hold ...

8 May 2019 in National Assembly:
Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, Hon. Moses Kuria is very isolated out there. Of late, you have seen him in the House. He wants to campaign using the privilege of the House. He is even talking about China. This is the Committee of the whole House. People cannot talk for long. We do not want to listen. We have other party leaders.
