• 25 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: That, Kenyan’s annual Recurrent Expenditure has passed Kshs1 trillion mark and it is unsustainable. That, given the Constitution of Kenya 2010 created a bicameral Parliament, county governments and constitutional commissions thus increasing Recurrent Expenditure; that a bloated public sector wage bill which has been going on over the years enjoys the lion’s share of the national Budget, there is need to carry out job evaluation exercise in the public to gauge, regularize and rationalize pay levels and to eliminate duplication and wastage. view
• 25 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: That, it is discriminatory to pay senior Government executive rates of developed nations while the rest earn minimal wages by international standards. There is an urgent need to devise ways of bringing down the Recurrent Expenditure and increasing Development Expenditure. Therefore, your humble petitioners pray that the National Assembly of the Republic of Kenya audits the entire public service and State offices both at the county and national levels; including all commissions as well. Evaluate the public sector jobs and eliminate any duplications and unnecessary posts; especially now that the national Government is trimmed from 48 to 18 view

• 24 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: THAT, aware that the water hyacinth has invaded several water bodies in Kenya, including Lakes Victoria and Naivasha; concerned with the negative impact of this weed on the agricultural sector and water combined systems; noting that so far water hyacinth has displaced native species, harmed fish and wildlife and reduced food productivity, this House urges the Government to establish an aquatic weeds fund to work for the eradication of all aquatic noxious weeds, including the water hyacinth in Kenya. view
• 17 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker, Sir. I sat here yesterday and promised my friend, hon. Wario that I will speak substantively to this Motion. It is, indeed, hard to listen to what happens in the Tana River and the Tana Delta region. view
• 17 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: I also benefited from the knowledge of hon. Wanyonyi who was a former Chief Executive Officer of TARDA. The more he spoke, the more I wanted to speak again because there are several things that a Motion like this explains to Kenyans. view
• 17 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: It is unacceptable that several years after Independence some Kenyans are still washed away by floods that are occasionally let out by a corporation that is otherwise supposed to protect and generate power. I was told yesterday that what TARDA and KenGen do is occasionally making radio announcement to inform the people living down the plains that the floods are coming, without caring about the consequences that happen to the people who live downstream. view
• 17 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, Sir, by coincidence, this sort of thing was decided by the House of Lords in 17th July, 1868 in the very known case that you and I know of Rylands versus Fletcher. If you permit me I will quote the strict liability thought. It says:- "the person who for his own purpose brings on his lands and collects and keeps there anything likely to do mischief, if it escapes, must keep it in at his peril, and if he does not do so, is primafacie answerable for all the damage which is the natural consequence of its escape". view
