• 24 Jun 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, as you can see, this is a very ambitious scheme of service. It will not work in a number of areas. Could the Assistant Minister reconsider and review the entire scheme, so that Kenyans with good leadership skills are able to compete for these positions, not necessarily because they have good grades in English or Kiswahli? A lot of students from schools in our areas do not perform well in these subjects! view
• 24 Jun 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, when we fail to implement projects on time, there are cost implications and the Minister, as an accountant, knows that very well. In order to avoid the kind of problems that we have gone through and, particularly, the lacuna created by failure to smoothly move from one stage to another, what amendments is the Minister going to bring to ensure that the country does not fail to get the services required because of the change-over?

• 24 Jun 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I was saying that failure to implement a project has a cost. view
• 24 Jun 2008 in National Assembly: What amendment is the Minister going to bring to ensure that there is continuity even amidst changes that he has brought before? view
• 24 Jun 2008 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. I heard the Assistant Minister talk about something that I have never heard in English language. He said Kamuti . What is that? view
• 10 Jun 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I think part "a" of the Question that the Assistant Minister has answered is very important. That is because motorcycles have a huge effect on low income earners in this country. We have, as a country, to take the aspect of industrialisation very seriously. But the Assistant Minister has been very casual. My question is: What specific measures has his Ministry taken, in view of the fact that, that industry is very important, to encourage the assembly of motorcycles in this country? view
• 10 Jun 2008 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. My question was very specific! I did not ask for the general environment that has been created for industrialization. If we dwell on those generalities, we may not go far. That sector is very important and is predominant in western Kenya. I want the Assistant Minister to hear me out! What has the Ministry put in place to encourage the setting up of that assembly? view
• 10 Jun 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the livestock sector has received a raw deal in this country. Even where the Government has had the resources, there has been a serious mismatch particularly in the arid and semi-arid areas where more resources are allocated to agriculture; that is, personnel and finances as opposed to the livestock sector which is predominant in that economy. Could the Assistant undertake to ensure that, among other things within that policy, this mismatch of policies and resource allocation to the livestock sector is corrected once and for all? view
• 30 Apr 2008 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Thank you for your ruling. However, the Minister says that the written answer has already been supplied to the Office of the Clerk. Could we know where the problem is? It now looks like the responsibility of supplying the written replies lies with the Office of the Clerk, and not the Ministry? April 30, 2008 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 785 view
• 30 Apr 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to join my colleagues in supporting this Motion. This is so because I think the Minister has really tried to exercise prudence under very difficult circumstances. However, I also wish to revisit the issue of insecurity. I was surprised when the Member for Igembe North told a story that is very similar to mine. I also had some livestock stolen in my constituency. When I talked to the concerned security officers, they told me that they had no vehicle. None of the police divisions had vehicles. In fact, it was such a serious ... view
