• 12 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker. I beg to support the Motion as amended. view
• 12 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, yesterday, I was burning to contribute because as the saying goes, the majority would always have their way as the minority have their say. I was in the minority yesterday afternoon, but since the matter has since been overtaken by events and the Budget and Appropriations Committee has agreed with hon. Gumbo, let me deal with other issues of importance to my Committee and then I will address the very popular issue of transferring the Kshs3 billion to the CDF. view
• 12 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Given the debate of the Ksh3billion, we may have left out some very important issues. Having listened to hon. Jakoyo and hon. Onyonka yesterday, it is important that I raise these issues because it is clear that some of us are stuck in the old Constitution. We are not appreciating and embracing our role in the Budget making process. During the leadership meeting in Mombasa, hon.

• 12 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: for Supplementary Budgets in the future. We are told not to burst the ceilings yet the Ministry will later on come back and ask us to give the particular institution money. view
• 12 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I am being asked by hon. Nyenze to mention the institution. view
• 12 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I am sorry. I must be going back to the days when he was a Minister. That is probably why I was confused and I started to answer for him. view
• 12 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I have three serious issues I want to speak to. Therefore, I will not get into the debate of answering hon. Nyenze. We are claiming that we are doing programme-based budgeting. If you left out a recurrent cost in your programme, would you be able to transfer that mistake in three subsequent Budgets, unless you are doing incremental budgeting? That is why I am saying we will ask for the bursting of their ceilings when they leave out things that are important. view
