• 14 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: We need to begin that debate about whether we should retain the election date in the Constitution, and how we are going to address the fact that unless we do it in December, we will still have the problem of how the House engages with the budgeting process as required by the Fiscal Act. view
• 14 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: The debate on the number of Members of Parliament is really one that I would urge you to call a Kamukunji for us to have a pre-publication scrutiny on the Bill that is being proposed by hon. Aghostinho Neto, which is a very progressive way of addressing the problems in the current Constitution. view
• 14 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Finally, the problem of the wage bill is not only an issue of ghost workers, it is that every day when you look at the papers, some counties have 40 positions which they are advertising. My question is, these positions, can the people currently holding them work until we are able to raise enough wealth or money to be able to sustain the wage bill?

• 12 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, we did agree with the hon. Member that we were going to visit the site where trees are being cut; but as a result of budgetary constraints in the Committee, we opted to defer the trip until when the Committee will be going for other business near his constituency. We are planning to go there between 5th and 7th December, 2013. view
• 12 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker. I beg your indulgence because the Ministry officials have been out of the country and we have been unable to receive a response. We are pushing them to get one next week. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.

• 12 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker. The hon. Member asked a question about some illegal recruitment at Kenya Forest Service. The delay is because there has not been any recruitment in the Kenya Forest Service. They promised to give us whatever human resource activity that has been taking place at Kenya Forest Service. That is why we have had delays; they are claiming they have not had any recruitment since the new laws came into place. view
