• 26 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: Those cards, in this day and age, when men are being advised to stop carrying wallets and put them in our back pockets, they make our wallets to bulge and even become a security risk as you walk and people imagine it is money you are carrying, and they are only cards: a card to eat, a card to get into the Chamber, a card to speak. I would really beseech you as Chairman of the PSC to bring this Parliament to the level where we ought to be, being one of the leading nations in ICT. And with a ... view

• 26 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker for your guidance. I beg to move that the Appropriation Bill (National Assembly Bill No.22 of 2018) be now read a Second Time. view
• 26 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: As I had said, in line with the Procedural Motion by the Leader of the Majority Party, we only have another three days to the end of the financial year. Therefore, it is important that we are able to pass this Bill and hopefully, if the House agrees with us in the course of this afternoon. I do not intend to take a lot of time because this Bill just picks from what we did in the Committee of Supply; in fact everything we passed there. There have been concerns from a number of Members who have approached me on ... view
• 26 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: Equalisation Fund and the fund we allocated to roads. We have adopted those proposals as we passed in the Committee of Supply and there are no changes. view
• 26 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: We have only received two amendments, one which came from the State Department of National Planning relating to the Lake Basin Development Authority (LBDA), which is in the Order Paper. The other amendment I wish to speak to was proposed by Hon. Anthony Oluoch Member for Mathare and it relates to the Political Parties Fund. I can see the ODM Party Chairman cheering. Unfortunately, for this amendment, it is good to mention it came a bit late. We had a Budget and Appropriations Committee meeting this morning. The amendment was received by the Parliamentary Budget Office (PBO) at 2.25 p.m. ... view
• 26 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: It is important to mention that, in as much as this money is going to all our parliamentary political parties, maybe, it is time we looked at ways in which even Members of this House can form parliamentary caucuses and party secretariats. They can even propose amendments to this law to enable those parliamentary secretariats get part of this money. That way, the Leader of the Majority Party and the Leader of the Minority Party who is also the Party Chair of a very important party ODM will have resources to caucus Members of Parliament. Probably, he will even hold ... view
• 26 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: That is what will make political parties and our democracy vibrant. The Leader of the Majority Party is asking who party owners are. It is a fact of life that in this country, they are there. Other than Jubilee, which is a party that is owned by the membership, there are many briefcase owned political parties. The day they become parliamentary political parties…Hon. Speaker, protect me from the Leader of the Majority Party who is shouting “PDR” because that party is derogatively referred to as the ‘party of Duale and Ruto’. view
• 26 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: I do not know if they are the party owners but there are parties which are owned by individuals. I was just saying that to encourage Hon. Anthony Oluoch. Even as we consider his amendment probably in the Appropriation Act, we should also consider amendments to the Political Parties Act to enable us incorporate some of the ideas which the Members of Parliament have been exchanging. view
