• 1 Oct 2020 in National Assembly: We agreed that the three Bills should be harmonised and brought into one just like the two referendum Bills. There is one by the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs and the other one by the Constitutional Implementation Oversight Committee (CIOC). If we do not harmonise the two Bills, Members will be contributing to one Bill thinking that they are contributing to another one. We undertake to harmonise them. I want to assure you that there is a strong parliamentary office which must continue giving continuous feedback to get them better by the day. That capacity exists. view
• 1 Oct 2020 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, the Chairperson of the Constitution Implementation Oversight Committee, who was supposed to be moving this Bill, is tied up on Committee matters and has requested that we step it down until next week, when he will be available to move it. So, with the indulgence of the House, this Order is stepped down. view
• 1 Oct 2020 in National Assembly: The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 1 Oct 2020 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, again, the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Administration and National Security is out of town. He travelled to Kisumu on Committee work. He had requested that we move this business to next week. The anticipation was that Order Nos.10 and 11 would take up most of the afternoon. We have also agreed with the Liaison Committee on how to avoid interference with Business on Thursday afternoons because of travelling by Committees. We are suffering from this problem because of travelling by Committees. Again, with the indulgence of the House, I would like to have this ... view
• 1 Oct 2020 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, again, for the same reason of travelling by Committees, the Chairperson of the Public Investments Committee (PIC), who has been very keen on moving this Bill… view
• 1 Oct 2020 in National Assembly: Okay, on Order No.15, we have been trying to liaise with the Chair of the Committee on Delegated Legislation to fast-track his movement. He is on the way but he cannot be here right now. So, I would also like that we step it down. Should he come in good time, we will reorganize the Order Paper. But for now, I would like to ask that this business be stepped down. view
• 1 Oct 2020 in National Assembly: Sadly, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, it is the Chairperson of the Committee on Delegated Legislation, who was to move Orders Nos.15 and 16, and for the same reason of not being here, or his business having been reached when he is not here, I would like to ask that the Order be stepped down. view
• 1 Oct 2020 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, we are trying to get the Chair of the Committee on Implementation to get the report. He had gone looking for it, but we cannot wait for him to print and bring it. So, again, with the indulgence of the House, I would like to ask that this Order be stepped down until we reorganise it for next week. view
• 1 Oct 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for this opportunity. Let me start by saying I support the Bill in principle. I congratulate the Member for bringing it, but I have some few reservations that I would like to bring to the attention of the House. I hope we shall tidy up this by the time we get to the Committee of the whole House, so that we achieve the objects of the Bill, but at the same time not end up creating more problems without giving a solution. This is because a solution should not create problems. It should actually ... view
• 1 Oct 2020 in National Assembly: 60 and in their 70s. They have acquired some experience and they may need to be retained until a suitable replacement is found. That is the reason why this was contained within the regulations rather than within the law so that as dynamics change, the age could even be shifted from 60 to 50 years. It is easier to amend the regulations than the law. This is because for a law to pass here, it could take more than a year. Again, we will be looking at this before we come to the Committee of the whole House. We will ... view
