• 15 Oct 2020 in National Assembly: I beg to move and ask the Leader of the Minority Party, Hon. Mbadi to second. view
• 15 Oct 2020 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I beg to second the extension of time. Even as I do so, I really sympathise with the Departmental Committee on Lands because they receive all manner of petitions and land is very sensitive. Everyone who has attempted to resolve their land disputes has gone through the traditional courts, traditional systems and the courts. They then ended up in this Committee. I was the Minister for Lands for about two-and-half years. I know the kind of things you get. So, I sympathise with them and I wish we could give them more time beyond the 60 days. We ... view

• 15 Oct 2020 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I beg to move the following procedural Motion. view
• 15 Oct 2020 in National Assembly: THAT, noting the recent changes in the membership of Committees of the House and pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order 256A (Extension of Period Prescribed), this House resolves to extend the time for filling of the vacancies in the affected Committees until 12th November, 2020. view
• 15 Oct 2020 in National Assembly: Members would note that indeed you communicated changes affecting the Committee of Cohesion and the Committee on Selection was supposed to provide a replacement within 14 days. Now, we are still consulting with the Whip and I am also aware that there are changes that were occasioned by the changes that we created earlier, when some people, for example were appointed to chairmen, yet they still held positions in committees and they could not resign because they were not anticipating they would be elected chairmen. So there is some cleaning up we need to do and we wish to take ... view
• 15 Oct 2020 in National Assembly: We also received requests from Members who are serving in committees they are uncomfortable with or they would want to shift. All these can be done during these two weeks. The two weeks were triggered by the recent changes we made and even as we fill, there is no point in filing one position, and then come back later to fill others. We would like to do it comprehensively. That is basically why we are asking for extra time. We do hope by 12th of November, we shall have finished this exercise and reported back to the House. view

• 15 Oct 2020 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I thank the Members for the contributions they made starting from the 10th Parliament and the 11th Parliament. We set the basis for a renegotiation of an Agreement that was skewed against Kenya and the locals to now a far much better Agreement. It probably may not be the best as Hon. Osotsi would like to see, it may not address all the issues, but in terms of access to the facility, obviously, the 1995 Agreement did not have Parliament in mind. It was done before the Constitution that was promulgated in 2010. view
