• 26 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir. Hon. Members are consulting very loudly and yet, this is a very sensitive matter. view
• 26 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir. I may not have a problem with one of the first amendment. But if I have a problem with the second amendment, how do I put my views across in terms of saying yes or no? Could this be separated and asked differently? view
• 26 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, there is nothing superfluous about this amendment. In fact, it is within the law, as you had said earlier. The only decision the Committee made is, perhaps, they--- The Committee may have considered the weight of the assignment of this Commission. After the first Commission, the formula could be very clear. They might require just minor amendments, and they may not need to be there full time, so that we can save on some of those costs. The Committee may have decided to have members of that Commission work on a part-time basis. view
• 26 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I stand to support the amendment. If a candidate decides to go elsewhere, what is the problem with the party leaders? Let the candidate prove himself or herself with the population! Thank you. view
• 26 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I beg to support this amendment because these serious time limits are undermining democracy. view
• 26 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I have no problem with the amendment brought by the Chair. I do not see where there is a conflict. This is because in the first place, Clause 16(1) says that it is upon the request by the Commission. This is strengthened further in Clause 16(2) in terms of control and direction over the staff who have been seconded. This means that they will work under the direction of the Commission. I do not see where the conflict is. view
• 26 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I have no objection, but I want hon. Abdikadir to explain part (c) of the amendment to Clause 14, so that we can see the practicability of the intended purpose of the amendment. view
• 26 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir. Is the hon. Member for Yatta in order to bring in party issues which have nothing to do with this clause? view
• 25 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I stand to support the Motion. Issues of revenue allocation are very key to this country and, particular, as we move on to the next dispensation. As part of the criteria, the issue of under-development has been listed in the Constitution as one of the criteria for CRA to use in determining what recommendations they make. But the point I want to make is that this country has had large disparities in terms of development and, therefore, as opposed to the emphasis, perhaps, on population, the level of under-development must be given a lot of attention. ... view
• 25 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: In this Bill, Clause 5(2) says: “The Chairperson, members of the Commission may, pursuant to Article 25(5) of the Constitution, serve on a part time basis.” I think it is high time that we decided whether we really want them to work on part time or full time basis. If the feeling is that, perhaps, this Commission may not have a lot of work, then we should decide that it should be part time. I know there is such provision, of course, in the Constitution, but this looks to me, unless it is clarified, like we are not decided. We ... view
