• 15 Jun 2017 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Chairman. I rise to support this new Standing Order No.259A. I have been a Member of the Parliamentary Caucus on Human Rights. We have done a couple of things as a caucus. I would be requesting the Mover, if at all he could be kind enough for the next caucus in the next Parliament, to amend Clause 259A(3) to delete the word “shall” and replace it with the word “may”. Parliament has been very magnanimous and supported the Parliamentary Caucus on Human Rights with the few facilities which maybe were not anticipated, but if we have ... view
• 14 Jun 2017 in National Assembly: Thank you. I will try as much as possible to speak in English. I agree with the Hon. Leader of the Majority Party. The Vice-Chairman of the Committee is trying to delete ―legitimate disbursements‖ from that phrase. You appreciate that the board is just a trustee of the enterprise, so it is not possible that the Board knows what the legitimate disbursements are. Even if that is deleted, the Board can disburse something else and that would be unfair. That is why I oppose this amendment. view
• 14 Jun 2017 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I have no problem with supporting this proposed amendment, but I have a problem with the use of the words--- view
• 14 Jun 2017 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I will try. I am saying I have no problem with the proposed amendment in Clause 17. My only worry is the use of the words ―recruit‖ and ―appoint‖ in the same line, which are fused in the same body. I hope that they can agree to cancel the word ―appoint‖ and then someone else recruits, as opposed to the Council being the one that recruits and appoints at the same time. I am wondering whether they can consider that proposal. view
• 14 Jun 2017 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I would like to inform the House that Hon. Ken Okoth is out on a formal parliamentary trip in Marta. He is not absent without apology from the House. view
• 14 Jun 2017 in National Assembly: With regard to the amendment which the Vice-Chair wants us to adopt, I know he wants to make it a new clause. I have looked at Clause 19 in the Bill with regard to the role of the Steering Council. It is not very clear and I am wondering whether it can be left as a policy- constructing body so that we do not say that the Authority is going to be providing secretariat services. This assumes there is a linkage between the Authority and the Council. I do not The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for ... view
• 14 Jun 2017 in National Assembly: understand the role of the Council as stipulated in the Bill and in my view I am not so sure they need a secretariat. view
• 14 Jun 2017 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. It is what I want to try and construct. I have no problem with what he is trying to do in distinguishing between a body corporate and an individual person. I think that the phraseology is not correct. If at all he could adopt the following which is in English: ―Where the offence is committed by a body corporate, the body corporate, upon conviction, shall be liable to a fine not exceeding ten million shillings‖ as opposed to what he has on the Order Paper. What he has on the Order Paper ... view

• 14 Jun 2017 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I know I am going to be part of the independents. So, if you are giving room for independents, I cannot be very brief. I would like to say four things. One, I hope that the Leader of the Majority Party appreciates that his amendment with regard to arbitration is only with regard to Clause 32 of the Bill and so, all issues that are going to be subjected to arbitration in Clause 32 (a) only concern that particular clause. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of ... view
