• 3 Apr 2019 in National Assembly: It is shameful that somebody of the stature of the former Prime Minister, someone Hon. Ndindi Nyoro can only refer to honourably as a former Prime Minister and a grandfather, can call him a mad man on the premise of something that does not exist. view
• 3 Apr 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I also wanted you to offer us guidance on the premise of Members of Parliament anticipating debate as much as those anticipating debate in churches may not have been anticipating debate on this Bill because it did not exist. I will name some of them. I will forgive the likes of Hon. Maina Kamanda, because he may not have read and understood the contents of the Bill, but the likes of Hon. Gladys Wanga, who is well schooled, well-read and can read, I do not know the excuse we can give for her. We should not forgive. Having ... view
• 3 Apr 2019 in National Assembly: Therefore, Hon. Speaker, I want your guidance on the question of people taking debate of issues that are before the House outside. view
• 3 Apr 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. view
• 2 Apr 2019 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. view
• 2 Apr 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I do not want to interrupt Hon. Waihenya Ndirangu, the Member for Roysambu, but he was called upon to reply and yet he is now debating. I thought that being the Mover, he had debated and he was just to reply on the issues that the Members raised. He has turned this into another session of debate. I wanted to contribute. He is saying all the things that I wanted to say. I obliged when the Member for Nyatike asked that the Mover be now called upon to reply. I feel that the Vice-Chair of the ... view
• 2 Apr 2019 in National Assembly: With your indulgence, before I contribute, I want to move two amendments on behalf of the Member for Ruaraka, Hon. T.J. Kajwang’. I propose an amendment to Recommendation 5(i) and 11 in Section 12.4 and Section 12.9 of the Report by the Departmental Committee on Communications, Information and Innovation. Recommendation 5(i) on Page 81 of the Report proposes that the CA consults with mobile network operators and establishes a glide path for reduction of mobile termination rates to zero within a period of two years. As a House, we have a duty and a responsibility to the people of Kenya ... view
• 2 Apr 2019 in National Assembly: price control in this country. If it was to be done, it must be done in an objective way through a scientific process like it has been done in the past through conducting a network cost study. If you look at the trend in other countries like our neighbours, Tanzania and South Africa, who you would comfortably say are our peers in the continent, and even Ghana where similar glide paths have been established, the initiative has always been informed by a network cost study. Therefore, it is international best practice that you do a study before you decide what ... view
• 2 Apr 2019 in National Assembly: THAT, the CA implements national roaming to other Tier 1 operators in the seven counties of Isiolo, Garissa, Mandera, Marsabit, Samburu, Turkana and Wajir within one year. This will cut off the methodology. Effectively, what we want to achieve - and I must commend the Committee for their initiative - is to ensure that Kenyans in far-flung counties that enjoy the Equalisation Fund also enjoy cheaper calling rates. They should access roaming and telecommunication services on mobile telephony at the cheapest possible cost. It is only fair that we leave it to the regulator, in consultation with the industry players, ... view
