• 28 Sep 2021 in National Assembly: It is a point of order. Maybe because I did not explain and the Leader of the Majority Party did not go to Alliance High School, maybe, he did not get the point. Hon. Chairman, you are able to grasp the point very fast like I was able to, earlier. The whole intention, which is related to what Hon. Nduati has moved on behalf of Hon. Oundo, is to cushion the ordinary Wanjiku from paying penalties. Remember we have set very high penalties for non-remittance of contributions.

• 28 Sep 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Chairman, I was just complaining to Hon. Pukose that the Chamber is very hot. I know because of the COVID-19 protocols, at times the AC has had to be reduced.

She is currently amending Section 20 of the principal Act which is on voluntary contributions.

• 28 Sep 2021 in National Assembly: It is important because we want to encourage many of our youth to register voluntarily for the NHIF and not be punished for not doing so. I beg the House to support the amendment by the Chair of the Departmental Committee on Health. I begin to take great offence after I have sat with chairs of committees and agree.

Millie is also saying that it is important for the Leader of the Majority Party to treat chairs of ... view
• 28 Sep 2021 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, this is mine, not Hon. Duale’s. I am standing on my own behalf and on behalf of Hon. Duale.
