• 20 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: I am the one who created the mess and I am very happy about it, Hon. Mbadi. The issue that you have raised on why one commission should be recruiting another commission is what Hon. Baiya has talked about. We were not confident of the independence of the PSC when we were doing these Agenda 4 institutions. We then transported it to this Bill to have panels. If, for example, I, as an applicant, is dissatisfied with the conduct of a panel, whom do I sue? Would I sue the representative from the National Gender and Equality Commission (NGEC) or ... view
• 20 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: mentioned that other commissions are doing panels, we should clean up that mess because if a rogue representative from any of those institutions comes and is unfair to any applicant, who will be sued? Will you sue the individual or the 12 persons who were involved in that process? When you infringe on any of my rights if I am an applicant, I have the right to seek recourse. So, that is what we are trying to cure. We should cure this in all institutions. We should not transport the fears that we had during the Coalition arrangement to recruitment ... view
• 20 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, considering how he spoke and the level of awareness on this subject, I do not think he can give me any useful information. view
• 19 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I would like to congratulate the Mover, Hon. Kang’ata, for moving the amendments that are going to be useful in ensuring that poor applicants benefit. I would like to note that if there is an award for pro-poor amendments, it needs to go to Hon. Kang’ata because he seems to have the most number of pro-poor amendments sometimes with unintended consequences like what will happen with Clause 4. The issues in Clause 4 are really good but some of the unintended consequences raised by Hon. Dalmas need to be looked into. We have many poor ... view
• 18 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. As you said, the matters that have been canvassed so far, with the exception of Hon. Kaluma--- view
• 18 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. As I was saying, the matters have been canvassed as you have clearly stated, and I should not take as much time as they have. I concur with what has been stated by my colleagues, except for the views held by Hon. Kaluma. As you know, Hon. Kaluma is used to not agreeing with the rest of mankind. view
• 18 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Having said that, there is a matter that is really disturbing me - the request by Hon. Chepkong’a asking you to rule on whether the Senate should be allowed to deal with these things. He stated that the Senate is involving itself in matters they have no jurisdiction on. You have ruled many times on the clarity of Article 95 and 96 of the Constitution, but it seems not to be getting through to our colleagues on the other side. Therefore, ruling again would be doing exactly what the Senate is doing with Kenya Airways (KQ). To take up the ... view
• 18 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: are doing with KQ. They will recommend everything and anything but nothing will happen unless a Committee of this House decides they want to share the same recommendations. I would like to urge Hon. Chepkong’a not to ask you to do exactly what the Senate is doing, by issuing a ruling that will not make an impact. With those remarks, I want to thank you for giving me this opportunity. view
