• 25 Jan 2017 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, Hon. Amina does not want me to second. She is asking for the Question to be put, but we must discuss the next Clerk of the National Assembly. It is a very important position. Hon. Speaker, I beg to support the Motion on the appointment of Mr. Michael Rotich Sialai as the Clerk of the National Assembly. From the outset, I would like to thank the PSC for having made a spot-on choice of Mr. Sialai to succeed Mr. Justin Bundi as the Clerk of the National Assembly. I have keenly perused the Report of the Commission on ... view
• 25 Jan 2017 in National Assembly: Parliament, its legislative procedures and jurisdictions. I am sure you and your predecessor; at least, I have served under those two Speakers. Mr. Sialai, of course, working with his colleagues in various departments was key in making sure that all the proceedings of the House and its Committees were up to date. view
• 25 Jan 2017 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, it is no wonder he has and continues to execute his role so meticulously and with demonstrated dedication of ensuring a fair parliamentary procedure and practice. He has built this experience over a time through his exhaustive service in Parliament over the last 21 years. view
• 25 Jan 2017 in National Assembly: Most Members here are not aware that Mr. Sialai wrote a Master’s thesis when he was very young and it formed part of the authorities which are quoted today internationally in the cases relating and regarding historical injustice against the Talai people of Tinderet. That thesis is used at the International Criminal Court (ICC). I am not a friend of the ICC and I will never be because of the historical injustice ICC has committed against many people. The thesis written by one Michael Rotich Sialai is one of the records which are being used. view
• 25 Jan 2017 in National Assembly: As the House approves this officer, I have noted in your Communication that one of the Bills that have elapsed is the Parliamentary Service Commission Bill, 2015. I hope it will be published again soonest for consideration. When it is published, I will bring am amendment. We must have tenure of office for the Clerks of Parliament. It cannot be open ended. The way we have an amendment Bill dealing with the Office of the Attorney-General, every officer must have some tenure. Even CEOs of commission have tenure of office. Imagine if Mr. Sialai was 40 years old today and ... view
• 25 Jan 2017 in National Assembly: It is also important to legislate on the term of Clerks of both Houses of Parliament. They should either serve for two renewable terms or one long term of about five, six or seven years. But it should not be open-ended. view
• 25 Jan 2017 in National Assembly: We will also rely on the experience of this officer to guide us on the next review of the rules of procedure of the National Assembly, including proposing the restructuring of our committee system so that Committees are leaner and more efficient. view
• 25 Jan 2017 in National Assembly: Therefore, those are the tasks that the new Clerk, Mr. Sialai, will be faced with. Having said that, I also want to take this opportunity to indicate that the current Clerk, Mr. Bundi has served very well during the 11th Parliament. We had a different Clerk in the 10th Parliament. Mr. Bundi has also served at the East Africa Legislative Assembly. So, he has a wealth of experience. We wish him well and thank him for steering all the various departments of Parliament to greater heights. I take this opportunity to indicate that as leadership of the House we have ... view
