  • 12 Jul 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, you have heard the Assistant Minister telling us how he got confused after the file was transferred from where it was to this Ministry. He has said that some payment was made as shown in File Ref.OP.218/024/1 dated 26th July, 2000. No payment has been made. The Assistant Minister is saying that some payment has already been made. Between me and the Assistant Minister, who can investigate to find out who took the money? He is the one who made the payment. Whom did he pay the money? He should give us the name of the person ... view
  • 12 Jul 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would like to thank the Assistant Minister for that answer. He has requested me to contact the next of kin of this person. How much money is the Assistant Minister ready to pay to the next of kin of this man who died about ten years ago? Will he pay the money with interest? When a person kills an animal in the game park, he is jailed for seven years. 2480 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES July 12,2006 Could the Assistant Minister compensate this family and pay the money with interest? He should compensate for the suffering of this ... view
  • 4 Jul 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, according to my understanding, an authority is an independent entity. So, when it becomes submissive to a Minister, it stops being an authority. I would like to make it clear that an authority is an authority. Authority is understood by hon. Kimeto as an authority. It should not be submissive to anybody else. So, if the Authority has to consult with the Minister, it stops being an authority. Secondly, today, we are making amendments to this Bill and I think we should deal with it once and for all. view
  • 4 Jul 2007 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I thank the Minister for bringing this Bill. However, the three authorities which have been created in this Bill, if not well-managed, will look like a white elephant. The Ministry does not lack the money or ability to maintain our roads, but it does not have trusted and committed people. That is the only problem which we have. So, I hope the Minister will implement this Bill with all amendments. However, I do not see the proposal that I made when I brought a Motion on roads; that the Members of Parliament will ... view

  • 28 Jun 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, let me thank the Minister for the answer he has given. I want to thank him for considering my application, which I have already submitted to him. When will the work be done? view
  • 28 Jun 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, as I continue to thank the Minister, I would like to request him to accelerate the speed at which he is erecting electricity poles in my division to enable children in my area to know the difference between an electric post and other posts. He should do this before elections take off later this year. view
  • 27 Jun 2007 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to contribute to the Budget Speech. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is high time we had a complete change of policy in terms of making the Budget in this country. We have said, time and again, that it is high time hon. Members were involved in the Budget-making process. It is not fair for us to discuss Budget June 27, 2007 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 2065 Speech without our input. Hon. Members here are giving very good contributions on the Budget Speech. However, I wonder whether their ... view
  • 27 Jun 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, why would you allow what we call "the Minister", who has little knowledge, to inform me on what I am talking about, yet I am giving information on what is real in the real Budget? I am giving an exemplary pattern of the Budget. Do not allow people who look at their own scenario as Ministers without being broad-minded to interrupt other people on the Floor. When I was giving an exemplary pattern about the Budget, I was going to say that you can get a lot of money from the visitors. With those few ... view
