• 5 Jul 2018 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I have indicated something that is clearly out of order. We are all here in the room and we can tell when there is reference and when there is a clear long reading of the text. It is quite clear that it was a reading and not a reference. Let us not say we were not reading when we were. Let us not say that we were extracting notes when we were actually reading big chucks of those notes. This is something we need to note quite tacitly for this Twelfth Parliament. view
• 5 Jul 2018 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I would like to thank Sen. Sakaja and Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. for bringing up this Bill. I want to go directly to some of the issues and pick on specific clauses. It is a very structured Bill because it creates various organs from the national Government to the counties. I wish it could go a bit lower to community initiatives with many women in it who can come up with very dynamic methods of dealing with disasters using the African traditional methods of dealing with hazards. However, it goes to the Authority which ... view
• 4 Jul 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to give notice of the following Motion:- THAT, this Senate notes the Report of the Senate Delegation to the Women Political Leaders Annual Global Summit held in Vilnius, Lithuania from 6th - 8th June, 2018, laid on the Table of the House on Thursday, 21st June, 2018. view
• 4 Jul 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I stand to support the Statement that has been made by Sen. Rose Nyamunga. One of the beauties of growing up, and I think this has been the case in many countries, is when you enjoy your childhood in a secured environment. You enjoy it, when you know you are valued by your country. The issue of sexual defilement and rape has become now an issue that cuts across gender. There is no gender that is safe; both young boys and girls are at risk of being defiled. Despite the various laws that are meant to protect ... view
• 21 Jun 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, would I be in order to suggest that, probably, this is something new that we are trying in the Senate and it is important. The next Chairperson of a Committee who shall make a presentation on a Petition should come ready with that Petition. Probably, we should have some version of it already in the Order Paper, so that we can contribute constructively. We will have time to go through the Report and identifying the gaps. We need our memories to be jogged. That might be a good idea. What the Chairperson is doing and what Sen. ... view

• 14 Jun 2018 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Is the hon. Senator, next to me, in order to use different languages when making his presentation? That is against the Standing Orders.

• 14 Jun 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I join you in welcoming Tumaini Academy from Bomet County. ‘ Tumaini ’ means ‘hope’ in English. You are the hope and future of Kenya and your dreams are valid. Work hard and become Senators one day, so that you can play an important role in making legislation for this country, especially on devolution which is a key area that we discuss here in the Senate. It will ensure that we have devolved our units to a place where services can get to all the people equitably. We wish you all the best and thank you for ... view
• 14 Jun 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I stand to support this Bill as well because nowadays all matters are legal. There is nothing you can do which does not have a legal implication and legal fees are always very expensive. So, the idea of having a county attorney is important. The two speakers who have spoken have highlighted specific areas which are key and quite helpful in enhancing this Bill. It therefore becomes an instrumental Bill for the functioning of county governments. This is one of the Bills that will devolve functions that have been held at the national level to the county ... view
