• 20 Jul 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, we had Kshs16 billion at the end of one financial year, being returned to the Treasury. We also had 25 billion and an additional Kshs7 billion being returned during the end of another financial year, which amounts to Kshs32 billion. We are asking for an increment in the CDF, from 2.5 per cent of our revenue to 7 per cent. However, the Government is resisting, yet it has been returning money to the Treasury.

Is the Assistant Minister in order to mislead the House that his Ministry is working in conjunction with KTDA when we know for a fact that the Tea Act, as amended in 2000, removed the issue of authority from KTDA and makes it an agency?

• 19 Jul 2006 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is the Assistant Minister in order to mislead Kenyans in the Printed Estimates for the districts? There are so many errors! Many roads that are in Nandi District have been placed in Uasin-Gishu District. There is a total mess all over the country. Is he in order? Could he withdraw that districts booklet and print it again, so that it could give us proper information? That way, we will not ask many questions. view
