• 24 Feb 2016 in National Assembly: The Committee agrees with the Senate’s new subclause. Basically, they are introducing incentives by Government to individuals and institutions that are promoting climate change. We think that those incentives will go a long way to promote clean environment. It is something we have been urging even under the Environmental Management and Coordination Act (EMCA), so that industries that adhere to environmental positive activities are given incentives. view
• 24 Feb 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, mine is a suggestion. I have a different vote for each of these two amendments. I do not support the county executive committee, one, because I do not want this Bill to go to the Senate. But I support the inclusion of the Catholic Church. When you lump them, you are making my vote inconsequential. view

• 24 Feb 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, the proposal from the Senate was rejected by the Committee of the National Assembly. The Senate wants to remove the civil society representative in the Climate Change Council.

However, at the point of voting, Ayes were in support of the Senate’s amendment and they were more. So, we want you to reconsider this because we believe that it would be wrong and it will be a loss to the Council for the civil society not to ... view
• 24 Feb 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I wanted to intervene before because when you were speaking, the Member for Rarieda and the Member for Muranga County were obstructing me from seeing you. view
• 23 Feb 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I beg to move the following Motion:- THAT, the Senate Amendments to the Climate Change Bill (National Assembly Bill No.01 of 2014) be now considered. The Climate Change Bill, 2014 was passed by this House on 5th March, 2015 and subsequently taken to the Senate. It was returned on 3rd December, 2015. Hon.

• 23 Feb 2016 in National Assembly: In the interest of time, let me deal with only the three matters which we disagreed with the Senate. The first one is on the amendment to Clause 7 of the Bill in which the Senate is proposing the deletion of representation of civil society in the Climate Bill Council.

So, we declined to agree with the Senate on the matters of the amendment to Clause 7. view
