• 24 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I think in future, we should not allow Hon. Pukose to second. I just wanted to support but just ask the Leader of the Majority Party that going forward from next week, let us allow time allocated for Private Members Bills. The House cannot just be debating Government Bills. We used to do it on Wednesday. Today, the Procedural Motion is in order, but the work that is before us, the Finance Bill is so huge and that is what has precipitated the extension of the House until that business is completed. I agree but I think going ... view
• 24 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, do not say “and then we put the Question”. Those of us who have degrees have read. view
• 24 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: Those who do not have degrees are not here. I agree with the Chair of the Departmental Committee on Finance and National Planning that those who draft the Finance Bill at the National Treasury must be conversant with the legislative Acts that have been passed by this House. You cannot bring a matter than can be covered under the Treaty Making and Ratification Act. We have done it a number of times where double taxation between governments come under that Act. You cannot bring it under the Finance Bill that ideally deals with tax raising measures. I want to agree ... view

• 24 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chair, I think the Chair moved so well. I am sure the Hansard captured her very well, particularly for the fact that she is protecting pudding. The Bill was proposing to delete the supply of ordinary bread from the zero-rating Schedule. I have listened and I hope that plus the other, fish and many other things will be captured very well as we go to the specifics. She talked of cerelac. It should be cerelac milk. Even if it is about cerelac coalition, those must be taxed because one of them is a senior tax evader. I ... view
• 24 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, the Constitution of Kenya, 2010, has given powers to this House on legislation, particularly on the Finance Bill. That is why today we have the powers to protect the poor Kenyans when it comes to bread, maize and wheat. This is why I should say that this tax could have affected majority of the hustlers of this country that we represent. Hon. Mbadi does not want to say the word “hustlers” because that logo or brand does not belong to his political formation. We are happy that this House has protected millions of hustlers. view
• 24 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: Are you saying that the Chair smokes? view
• 24 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. This is one of the most progressive amendments that the Chair has brought. These are people who fall in the category of the aged. They have retired and are in the village. Their retirement benefits is little. It is good to give the Retirement Benefits Authority powers under the Act to establish something called “post-retirement medical fund.” This happens in many other jurisdictions. I support. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 24 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, you know that as a House, we are not addressing… This amendment is good, but who is the custodian of pension funds? It is the National Treasury. They always bring it here through a supplementary budget and reallocate money or pension from the Consolidated Fund Services to pay other things. So, this House must first deal with the National Treasury to make sure that the amount of money allocated for pensioners is secured as per the Constitution in the Consolidated Fund Services. Second and finally, county governments have become culprits and I want to put notice ... view
• 24 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I thank the Chair of the Departmental Committee on Finance and National Planning. The reason why this Finance Bill is not very contentious as before is because the Chair is from the minority side. The Majority Party that represents the Government is the owner of the Bill. I thank the Committee and this House because for the first time, they have protected the powers given to the National Assembly in as far as the Value Added Tax regulations are concerned. Yesterday, I said that the Constitution of Kenya, 2010 gave the three arms of Government their ... view
