Yes, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. This is a very important Bill. We cannot transact business when we have serious issues of quorum. Maybe, you can order that the Quorum Bell be rung.

13 Oct 2016 in National Assembly:
If you look at Standing Order No.34, it says a quorum of the House or of a Committee of the whole House shall be 50 Members. We are hardly even 10. So, I will ask your indulgence that the Quorum Bell be rung so that we can start with serious business of the House.

12 Oct 2016 in National Assembly:
Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I am a leader and I would like to ask my good friend, Hon. Kiragu, to withdraw his amendment. The core mandate of the KDF is very clear in our Constitution.

Let us leave that to the National Defence College, which is more like a university. Let us not give that mandate to the military. We should send our children to the army to do specific functions as ...

With your permission, Departmental Committee Chair, we want to build a bipartisan consensus. We want to have a good law. We will ask the Departmental Committee Chair, with the Speaker’s permission, to remove the word “Extraneous” from the Bill. Let us retain the words “war” and “emergency”. We can define those ...
