• 28 May 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. Let me take this opportunity to, first of all, thank, congratulate and commend the Committee on Delegated Legislation for a thorough job that they have done within a very short time. I would recommend to those of us who have not read this Report to take their time and read it. This is a very detailed and reasonable Report. I have heard a lot of comments about the independence of the commissions that we have set up. It is true that they are independent but the question is: Do they ... view

• 23 May 2013 in National Assembly: On a point of order, hon. Speaker, Sir. I rise on a point of order with regard to the Statement sought by hon. Gitari; in relation to Standing Order No.44. I remember that we allowed the Leader of the Majority Party to bring Statements here because we did not have Chairpersons of Committees.

• 23 May 2013 in National Assembly: THAT, aware that the fishing industry makes a major contribution to the economy by producing over Kshs10 billion in foreign exchange and further aware that the industry provides employment both directly and indirectly to many people; noting that the potentiality of this sector is under threat due to use of non-scientific ways of fishing and continued use of wrong fishing gears due to poverty levels affecting the fishermen; this House urges the government to establish a fund from which fishermen can be given grants to buy the recommended fishing gear to help them acquire correct and scientific fishing gears and ... view
• 22 May 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker. I think four minutes will be enough for me. Just like I was saying yesterday, I rose to support this Motion and my main reason for supporting the Motion was based on the fact that the Constitution spells out the functions of each level of Government – county government and national Government. The agriculture function is actually a function of the county government.
