The mother swears in her affidavit that she would like to be re-united with her child, and we are willing to do that. Let ... view

• 25 Apr 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, we have handed over the child to the relatives of the mother.

• 25 Apr 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, Inspector Mohammed acted out of humanity. The mother abandoned the child in the police cells. We have been looking for the mother in order to hand over 624 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES April 25, 2006 the child to her. So, we see no reason for taking action against a police officer who was simply doing his duty. view
• 25 Apr 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the child we are talking about has parents who are known and who have relatives. The mother has sworn an affidavit that she would like to be re-united with her child. Why would we go to the extent of sending this child to a Children's Home when the mother wants her child? view

• 25 Apr 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am aware that there are many divisions in this country whose District Officers do not have vehicles. That is why we requested Kshs800 million for purchase of vehicles. Since our budgetary allocation is only half the amount we have asked for, we will buy some vehicles and allocate them to District Officers using a criteria we have established. However, we will eventually ensure that every District Officer gets a vehicle. view
• 25 Apr 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, in fact, I thought the hon. Member was about to ask how we allocated the vehicles that were bought last year. We have a list showing the number of divisions we gave vehicles to in the last one year. However, as he has requested, when we finally allocate the vehicles we are buying, we will bring a list to Parliament, showing where those vehicles will have been sent to. view
