• 26 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: Through the enactment of this law, the national Government will have the opportunity or will get the green light to spend Kshs1.4 trillion from the Consolidated Fund to implement the various Government programmes commencing 1st July 2018 to 30th June 2019. This House is alive to the fact that the Government has Four Big Agenda to implement and the 2018/2019 Budget is the one which will set the ball rolling in terms of implementation of the socio- economic transformation agenda of President Uhuru Kenyatta. view
• 26 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: Allow me to appreciate the meticulous manner in which this House and the Budget and Appropriations Committee processed the 2018/2019 budget estimates. For the first time, the Committee of Supply was brought to the House and it took a considerable time to scrutinise each and every vote and programme in the 2018/2019 Budget of all departments and agencies and, as a result, the enactment of the Appropriation Bill has been made much easier since it contains the various votes and programmes which this House has approved at the Committee of Supply stage of the legislative process. So, what the Chair ... view
• 26 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: I urge the House to support the enactment of this Bill. It is my hope that upon enacting this Bill and the commencement of the next financial year, the various agencies which are being overseen by various committees of the House will begin implementing the Budget as approved. It is important to recognise and appreciate the considerable effort put by the Budget and Appropriations Committee under the leadership of Hon. Kimani Ichung’wah, the committee members, the Budget Office under the leadership of Ms. Makau, the Clerk, you Hon. Speaker, and all the other staff of the House. We thank them ... view
• 26 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to support the amendment and confirm to the House that I told the Chair of the Budget and Appropriations Committee that he could not bring an amendment, unless the Government provides evidence in writing to the House. I have a letter from the Cabinet Secretary for the National Treasury and the Principal Secretary asking for that reallocation and resources. view
• 26 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. First allow me to support and thank the Chair of the Departmental Committee on Lands for a job well done. Parliament and its committees have no investigative and prosecutorial powers. They just make recommendations to other State agencies, the EACC, Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP), Director of Criminal Investigation (DCI) and Auditor-General to do a forensic audit. That is how Parliament works. This Committee, in my honest opinion and being a ranking Member serving my third term, has brought a more detailed and executive Report which I have not seen in the 11th Parliament. ... view
• 26 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: Yes. When I say leadership, I mean all of us. That is why we sent a first signal before this Report was completed in the Supplementary Estimates. The Leader of the Minority Party, Chair of Budget and Appropriations Committee and I said until the Departmental Committee on Lands makes a conclusive Report to this House, we would not sanitise that payment. I am happy today because there is an audit issue on the head of CS Rotich. How he is going to explain the Kshs.1.5 billion he paid is not my business but his. With this Report that amount will ... view
• 26 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: In Parliament we ask questions. That is a parliamentary procedure. view
• 26 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: No. I will go on the HASARD that I am asking a question. I am going to reply if you allow me. In Parliaments all over the world even in the House of Commons, Members ask questions. So, I have looked at this Report and I have put a number of questions at every stage. view
• 26 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: I have asked who initiated the process. I have observed the Committee in undertaking public participation had an opportunity to receive views from the persons in the NLC, Ministry of Education, Science and Technology and the State Law Office. The Committee observed in the Report that the process of acquiring land occupied by the two schools was initiated by NLC. I have answered the question. Upon, receiving a complaint from the Afrison Import Export Ltd and the Huelands Ltd, on alleged historical injustices contrary to Section 107 of the Lands Act, which provides that the acquiring body being the Ministry ... view
• 26 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: My next question which I am asking myself and not the House is: How was the process of acquiring the land undertaken by the Commission? We now know who initiated and we want to see whether the process was followed. Firstly, contrary to the dictates of the Lands Act the schools and even the County Government of Nairobi were never involved in inquiry proceedings of acquiring the land as confirmed by the submission of this Committee. So, the Nairobi County Government and the school principals were not involved. So, who was involved? When I read this Report, it is the ... view
