• 27 Jun 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, in part "b" of his answer the Assistant Minister said that a circular has been given out. What do we make of civil servants, be they lecturers from universities, who attend Harambees and declare that they are offering themselves for election? Are they offending that Circular which was issued? If they are, what action is being taken against them? June 27, 2007 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 2089 view
• 27 Jun 2007 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. for giving me time to contribute to the debate on the Budget Speech. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speake, Sir, I want to thank the Government and the Kenya Revenue Authority for going out and collecting the taxes, particularly the VAT. Many traders in the past were collecting VAT from the people, and they were not remitting it to the Government. If you went to a shop, they would say: "If you want a receipt, I will put in the VAT." If you do not want a receipt, they don't show the VAT. So, I ... view
• 27 Jun 2007 in National Assembly: June 27, 2007 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 2083 On health, many dispensaries and health centres have been built using the good CDF funds. But the CDF funds cannot employ workers, because that is recurrent expenditure and, therefore, the Ministry of Health must employ workers now. It must employ more health workers. They have to employ more nurses, more clinical officers, more laboratory technicians and post them to the newly built-health facilities and dispensaries and health centres. Furthermore, they have to equip these health facilities. We cannot expect the CDF to also equip health centres and dispensaries, which have been built using CDF ... view
• 27 Jun 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, in carrying out land adjudication, two different persons may have conflict over the boundary or something. If they go to court, it stops the whole adjudication section. I have a case like that. Could the Assistant Minister assure Kenyans that if there are two people with a problem, it should not affect the whole adjudication section? They should go ahead and issue titles to the rest of the other sections if they are not affected by the case. view

• 19 Jun 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, in part "c", the Assistant Minister is saying that Mosoriot Trading Centre and its environs is patrolled by police officers from Kapsabet Police Station on a 24-hour basis. Last year, 1st of April, three watchmen were killed only 300 metres. They were guarding a shop and their necks were cutoff. This year again, two have been cut. When those three were killed last year, we requested the District Commissioner to put a road block near the DO's office in Mosoriot. He declined to do so. Instead, he took it three kilometres away. Mr. Speaker, Sir, could the ... view
• 19 Jun 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, when those three watchmen were killed, the DO was there at Mosoriot. When these two were killed, the DO and his APs were there. Does it suffice to just have the APs? Will the Government direct that police do actually patrol the whole of Mosoriot because the APs are not doing anything? view
