2 Aug 2016 in National Assembly:
immediately after the words “provisions of the” and substituting therefor the words “Environmental Management and Co-ordination Act, 2015”.” The reason why the Committee of the National Assembly has rejected this Senate amendment is that the amendment seeks to change the name of the Act from “Environmental Management and Coordination Act, 1999” to “Environmental Management and Coordination Act, 2015”. This amendment should not be adopted as the Environmental Management and Coordination Act, 2015 was not repealing the Act but rather amending the Act. The Committee is saying there was no repealing; what was done was just an amendment to the same ...

2 Aug 2016 in National Assembly:
Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I thank the Members. The Senate passed two amendments to this Bill as explained by the Committee Chair. The first amendment was an insertion of a new clause to prescribe the applicable Parliamentary procedure for ratification of agreements relating to transactions covered under the Bill. New Clause 9A proposes that the process commences in the National Assembly and then moves to the Senate for consideration.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I beg to move that the Proceeds of Crime and Anti-Money Laundering (Amendment) Bill (National Assembly Bill No. 64 of 2015) be now read a Second Time. By way of introduction, Kenya had initially been referred to as a high risk area or jurisdiction due to the absence of anti-money laundering and anti-terrorism financing laws. However, in 2009, the Proceeds of Crime and Anti-Money Laundering Act was enacted. It was supposed to address a number of deficiencies in law, which have weakened many nations in addressing and resolving matters to do with anti-money laundering. ...

crime can be traced, frozen, seized, and recovered. So, that was a very ambitious task. These laws were passed in the last Parliament. It was achieved through the grant of confiscation and restraint orders which were sought from the Judiciary. Ultimately, the realisation, recovery and the preservation of such property was provided in the parent Act. The Act further established institutional mechanisms like the Financial Reporting Centre (FRC). So, that Act of 2009 created specific institutions which were tasked with how to deal with proceeds of crime. One of them was the now vibrant institution called the FRC, the Anti-Money ...
