• 9 Oct 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, we will do our best in terms of the reforms within the financial management and working in the Ministries and monitoring their projects. We indicated that there is performance contracting that is now in place. This forces people to deliver on the promises they have made on the contracts which is the basis on which they are funded. So, we expect to see the trend of monies being returned to the Treasury diminishing in the future. With co-operation from all hon. Members in terms of oversight and monitoring, we should be able to implement everything as planned. view
• 9 Oct 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is true that Mr. Ojaamong sought a Ministerial Statement on the non-release of the Constituencies Development Fund (CDF) funds by the Government, and I would wish to state as follows: As hon. Members are aware, the allocation of CDF for this financial year is Kshs10.1 billion. The total amount of money that has been released so far, in relation to the first quarter of the year, is Kshs1.5 billion.

• 9 Oct 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, as I indicated while moving this amendment, looking at Clause 27, together with Clauses 5 and 10, you will note that they are exactly in the same text and refer to the three tax Acts: the Value Added Tax Act, the Income Tax Act, and the Customs and Excise Act. This House has already passed Clauses 5 and 10. We are now on Clause 27, which basically touches on the third Act, and gives the same power. So, debating this amendment when we have already decided on the other two, is actually tantamount to challenging ... view
• 9 Oct 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I explained the rationale for this amendment last time.

Section 156 of Section 156 the Insurance Act 156 is of Cap.487. amended by deleting Subsection (2). Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, the effect of my amendment is to delete the current Clause 63, but I am actually deleting the specific section, that is Subsection 2, which introduces the 60 days period. This was after an agreement with the Committee. I believe hon. Kajwang's proposal is seeking to achieve the ... view
