4 May 2006 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I do not see what the problem is all about. The meeting was convened by the Chairlady of Homa Bay County Council. Several councillors attended the meeting, among other leaders. I do not see what is private about such a meeting which is organised by a chairlady or chairman of a county council in his or her area of jurisdiction.

4 May 2006 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, hon. Midiwo's Question was brought to my office today morning. I forwarded it to our office in Nyanza. At about 10.00 a.m. I had a feeling that we would not get a response in good time. I, therefore, invited Mr. Midiwo to my office and together, we were able to consult the PPO and the DC in charge of his area. We agreed on a few things which should be done while we await the information on the ground.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, if the Member wants to withdraw his request for a Ministerial Statement and have the statement delivered to him, we will still have to prepare it and give it to him next week. We need to prepare because there is a lot of information that is required.

3 May 2006 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) Yes, I am aware that the peace committees are informal and perform voluntary work. (b) There is no provision for vehicles and allowances for the committees. But there are arrangements made by the District Commissioner, Samburu District, to avail vehicles when the committees intend to travel to any place to carry out their work. In addition, our development partners like the Oxfam, Arid Lands Resources Management Programme and the ITDG have been paying the committees some allowances for their operations.

3 May 2006 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we have formal peace committees in our office. Even the one that was involved in an accident the other day is one such committee. In addition to the formal committees that we have, we have informal committees comprising of old men, church leaders and businessmen who are willing to mediate between warring parties to bring peace. So, such committees are facilitated by the DC when they need transport. Also, our development partners sometimes go out of their way to give them small out-of-pocket allowances.
