• 18 Sep 2018 in National Assembly: However, you have given Hon. Keynan an opportunity and he has said something which is very telling that… When I said all Chairs, it meant even the Chair of the National Government Constituencies Development Fund (NG-CDF) Committee. He is also invited except the Chairs of the Oversight Committees. I had a problem with the assertion by Hon. Keynan who purports to be writing the Report on behalf of the Budget and Appropriations Committee. He has indicated that nothing will be touched. view
• 30 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I stand to support the amendment. I listened to the Leader of the Minority Party and he has a point in the Finance Committee bringing meaningful amendments not just to the Banking Act, but even to the interest capping law. It is imperative not just for the Chair of Finance but also for the National Treasury or the committee to formulate meaningful changes to the overall credit management system in the country. That is why, yesterday, I was very opposed to the interest capping changes that were proposed by the National Treasury. It needs ... view
• 30 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: regulations coming here in the first place, is illegal. All we are doing is to clean up that mess. That is why I support what the Committee is proposing. We are just making effective provisions of Article 94. We are not taking away their power to make regulations. They will be able to make regulations that will regulate the industry. But for those regulations to have the force of law, they must come to this House. We also represent people; and the people must have a say in those regulations because they affect the way people conduct business. I have ... view
• 30 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: I am a man of means, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. That is why I was very quick to support the lifestyle audit. I am not just a man of means by virtue of being a politician. I am a seasoned accountant who worked for many years as a senior finance person. From there, I went into very successful business in downtown Nyamakima. That is why I am saying Kshs1 million is small change. view

• 30 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I seek your guidance. Having consulted with Jude, I agree on withdrawal of this amendment and resubmission of the Bill in a more comprehensive manner. I am aware and I know that even the banking industry…What I find out of order - just to go straight to the point - is Hon. Jude Njomo justifying the withdrawal - besides other reasons - by drawing reference to issues to do with judicial references. Only the other day, the Speaker guided us that we should do our work in this House without reference to other authorities. We have ... view

• 30 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. To a large extent, I concur with what the man has said. The accounting sector needs regulation because it is true, as the Chair of the Committee said, that there are many pretenders, people who call themselves accountants yet some are not qualified at all. Some probably did the old-time book keeping where they were shown the pink, green and white paper and where to file each transaction and where to post them. I am very much opposed to some of the provisions by the Chair. For instance, as the Leader of the Minority ... view
• 30 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: to the institute. I am very opposed and I want to plead with the Chair to either drop Clause 69 E or drop all the amendments and bring it as a stand-alone Bill. view
• 30 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, is the Hon. Junet, Member for Suna East in order to be referring to Members in this House especially the Leader of the Minority Party and myself as quacks? We are seasoned professionals. Probably by the time I was a first year university student, Hon. Junet had not left primary school. He cannot be referring to us as quacks because we sit in this Chamber as accountants. The issues we have spoken on are issues that touch on those accountants out there; some are children in Suna East who shall not be employed because they are ... view
