• 1 Nov 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I agree those are accepted standards. However, since we do not have adequate personnel, we do not meet those standards. But as a matter of fact, we do our best to cover such meetings. view
• 1 Nov 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, police officers and, indeed, anybody else who kills a person under no acceptable circumstances is usually arrested and charged. I am sure that if the hon. Member had filed a particular Question about that incident, we would have given him more information. view
• 1 Nov 2006 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I also want to join my colleagues in thanking the hon. Member for Bahari Constituency for bringing this Motion at this time. This is one move that is aimed at ensuring that people in the Coast Province also acquire land on which they can do some development. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, since I am limited by time, I would like to follow up this Motion from where the hon. Member urges the Government to acquire land from absentee landlords. In the past, we have been involved in various efforts to try and ... view
• 31 Oct 2006 in National Assembly: Yes, I was away, Mr. Speaker, Sir. However, I will find out about it. I may be able to address it tomorrow. view
• 19 Oct 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am sorry I do not have an additional copy. However, I have the answer to the Question, which I will read out to the House. I am sure the hon. Member will get a copy in the next few minutes. However, I beg to reply. (a) Yes, I am aware that 5,000 building blocks intended for the construction of Funan Qumbi Primary School were stolen on 15th September, 2006. (b) I am also aware that the stolen blocks were traced to Turbi Primary School and were subsequently recovered. (c) When the OCS, Sololo went to ... view
• 19 Oct 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I have already said that there is a case that is going on in court. Normally, we will have to wait for the case to be finalised before we can consider the request by the hon. Member. I am sure that justice will be done. view
• 19 Oct 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, investigations were going on and, indeed, the officers went there after being tipped that these blocks had been found at Turbi Primary School. The circumstances under which these officers were attacked and the vehicle damaged is found on the last bit of the Question where the hon. Member is asking us what we will do to diffuse the simmering tension between the communities. There is a lot that we are doing in order to diffuse such hostilities. We all know that it is such hostilities that can lead to these incidents. We are talking to the ... view
• 19 Oct 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the police are supposed to provide security to the citizens of this country, and also to themselves. view
• 19 Oct 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, that is a good suggestion. However, I think issues to do with security go beyond the posting of the Kenya Army personnel to that area. It does not matter how many units we post to that area. You will always experience those incidents if there is hatred between communities. That is why we feel that by talking to the hon. Members who represent those communities, and by appealing to the leaders to help us resolve the hatred, we may achieve the peace that we are talking about. However, the hon. Member's suggestion is good and we ... view
• 19 Oct 2006 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. In fact, we are doing a lot in that part of our country. We have already sent out the General Service Unit (GSU) personnel to the area and increased the number of regular police officers and Administration Police Officers. However, we will take note of what the hon. Member has said. In the event those areas are insecure, we will include them in our programme. view
