  • 10 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this important Bill. At the outset, I would say that the amendment to this Bill brings a lot of sanity in the allocation of money for higher education to the needy students in our society. By prioritising the fact that all students will apply through their parents, we shall give opportunity, in allocating money, to needy students from poor families because in every village or constituency, an hon. Member is put under pressure every time to allocate the Constituencies Development Fund (CDF) money yet the student ... view
  • 10 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: Secondly, I am grateful that this amendment Bill is also bringing in an area where students who have not secured employment one year after completing their studies are given a grace period before they can start repaying the loan. You will find that such students have bank accounts and have not secured employment but when you look at loans accreditation bureaus, they put their names there as defaulters. If they start businesses they cannot access loans from banks because they are told that they have not paid money for the HELB yet they have not secured employment. If you look ... view
  • 10 Jun 2015 in National Assembly: I also support this amendment in the section where a student who is granted a loan, upon attaining the age of 18 or maturity age where he can be independent from the parent, he can register on his own and start facilitating the following up on the repayment. Many students, after the parents or guardians pass on, evade payment of this loan but when you start following up when they attain the maturity age, it will be possible to find out where he or she is located or where he or she has secured employment.

If all this money is channelled through the HELB, it will save us the headache of giving money double or triple times to the same students view

  • 29 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Just a point of information, hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
  • 29 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Clarification, sorry. view
  • 29 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: I said clarification but not on Hon. A.B.Duale’s issue. view
  • 29 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: I am seeking clarification from the Chairman here. view
  • 29 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: The clarification is that we cannot have different procurement laws governing different governments; that is the county and the national Government. The procurement law in all democratic setups is one in the entire country. We have the county government of Nairobi City which has already advertised a Kshs6 billion hospital project. Shall we wait for the county government to misuse money from the Treasury and money that they have collected from the taxpayers and loans they will access so that we can make another law? We bring it now then we clear it. view
