• 21 Feb 2019 in National Assembly: the BPS, up to the time we start work on the Supplementary Budget and the Annual Estimates, again, we shall have no other business other than considering Members’ legislative proposals. Therefore, I want to give the House our assurance that we will expedite all these proposals as they fall due. The vice-chair is also here and many Members of the Budget and Appropriations Committee are here. Finally, there are a number of proposals that Members, including myself, have requested to be stood down for various reasons and again that is allowed. With that, I beg to second the Motion and ... view
• 20 Feb 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I wanted to raise a point of order on what the Member for Wajir South said. As much as he was speaking in a hurry and tried to switch to Kiswahili, he referred to the nominated Member 001 as ‘this guy’. If we are talking about issues to do with decorum, rules and procedures, there are also rules and procedures on the language that we use in this House. I wanted that particular statement to be expunged from the HANSARD, if you find it in your wisdom to be out of order. I thought nominated Member 001, as ... view
• 14 Feb 2019 in National Assembly: Yes. view
• 14 Feb 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, thank you. My apologies. I misplaced my card in the suit that I wore yesterday. If you allow, even in regard to what Hon. Babu Owino has just done, I want to recognise the Mau Mau war veterans you had recognised before they came in. These are men and women who played a very critical role in the fight for the Independence of our country. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 14 Feb 2019 in National Assembly: There are two salient issues that are in this Bill: One, it allows Parliament to be involved when county governments are creating entities. They have not been involving Parliament in the establishment of many of these entities, many of which are fashioned as government parastatals. They have done this without any approval or ratification by either the Senate that oversees county governments or the National Assembly. Therefore, the amendment that will now make it compulsory for county governments to involve Parliament is a very good thing for our country. Since we are the ones who appropriate money even for the ... view
• 6 Dec 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I beg to move that the County Allocation of Revenue (Amendment) Bill (Senate Bill No.29 of 2018) be now read a Second Time. view
• 6 Dec 2018 in National Assembly: The County Allocation of Revenue (Amendment) Bill, 2018 follows the amendments we did last month to the Division of Revenue Act, 2018 which was assented to on 5th October 2018. The purpose of this amendment was the inclusion of the Kshs3.7 billion additional conditional allocations to counties for the Financial Year 2018/19. This was from three development partners namely; the Government of Sweden, European Union (EU) and the World Bank. The County Allocation of Revenue (Amendment) Bill (Senate Bill No. 29 of 2018) proposes to amend the County Allocation of Revenue Act, 2018 with the aim of introducing three more ... view
• 6 Dec 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker and Hon. Members, you recall that at the time we did the Division of Revenue Bill, agreements for these grants had not been finalised between the National Treasury and the respective donors. Following the conclusion of those agreements, we moved an amendment Bill to the Division of Revenue Bill that brought this Kshs3.739 billion. That is what has necessitated our Senate to now do this amendment Bill to the County Allocation of Revenue Bill of 2018, which we had done earlier in the year. I do not need to belabour much but just to point out ... view
• 6 Dec 2018 in National Assembly: (c) Kshs1.854 billion for the IDO World Bank Credit for the Kenya Urban Support Project (KUSP Urban Intuitional Grants UIG) plus balances carried forward from the Financial Year 2017/2018. The Committee, therefore, recommends that the House passes this County Allocation of Revenue (Amendment) Bill (Senate Bill No. 29 of 2018). From the Report that we tabled yesterday, Hon. Members will note some of the recommendations by the Committee. One is that the National Treasury and development partners develop a framework to ensure early engagement in signing of contractual agreements for conditional loans and grants to county governments with a view ... view
• 6 Dec 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I am sorry to interrupt Hon. Chris Wamalwa when he is contributing to this Bill because it is very important for the counties. Is Hon. Chris Wamalwa in order? He has gone completely off-tangent on the matter before the House. Secondly, is he in order to mislead the nation that you cannot have potatoes in the strategic grain reserves in a day and age where, Hon. Chris Wamalwa, being a learned person, knows that you can dry potatoes, install coolers and store potatoes as part of our strategic grain reserves? I am sure he is from ... view
