• 21 Jul 2021 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, part three talks about the role of the county governments. It is very clear. Throughout the Bill, the provisions for the national Government have been clearly outlined, but here we have the role of the county governments. I just want to confirm whether the specific responsibility for the county governments has been directly prescribed. I do not seem to be able to pick up on it. I think I saw something like that on the arrangement of clauses. We have the role of the county governments. I think the intimated understanding is that all the other ... view
• 21 Jul 2021 in Senate: The regulatory provisions are very clear in terms of the names and location. All these have to be given. I already talked on the licensing and the need for licensing view

• 21 Jul 2021 in Senate: control. The licensing authority should be able to be put into a place for various provisions. There is a penalty clause there. For the first time, I am seeing an innovation about confiscation of products apart from a jail term and a fine. This is because these products are very dear.

• 15 Jul 2021 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I would like to support this Bill. The County Vocational Education and Training Bill is a very important Bill from the Committee on Education. It comes very close to the Early Childhood Development (ECD) Bill, which was enacted. I think that was a big achievement.

• 15 Jul 2021 in Senate: We have responsibilities at both the county and the national level and, therefore, we want to have space for the counties to come up with centers of excellence, or come up with specific programs that are going to be important in those specific counties. Mr. Speaker, Sir, some of the issues that we have been dealing with at the level of the various counties is to find out what their resource allocation is and how they are using it. In addition, the measures that the county governments have taken to ensure that the centers are adequately resourced stating the data ... view
• 15 Jul 2021 in Senate: We now know, especially as we move towards what we used to call blue-collar jobs versus white-collar jobs that this is the direction countries are going as far as industrialization is concerned. view
