• 17 May 2007 in National Assembly: What about PIC? view
• 17 May 2007 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. From the outset, I want to thank the Minister for bringing to the House quite a number of labour laws. They are long overdue. I want to thank him very sincerely for a job well done. I know that a number of hon. Members have contributed to this Bill, and I want to be very brief, and just point out some of the main issues that I think should be addressed. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, in the preliminary part, Clause 3, on collective agreement, page 327, it reads as follows:- "Collective agreement ... view
• 17 May 2007 in National Assembly: Court will go through the agreement and ensure that it is consistent, among other things, with the law, also taking into account the economic considerations, and seeing whether that agreement will bring down that firm, or whether it works to the disadvantage of the employees. That kind of input from the Industrial Court is very crucial, and I think that definition needs to be looked at. Also, Clause 43(1) reads as follows:- "The Minister shall appoint a Registrar of Trade Unions, who shall be responsible for the registration and regulation of trade unions, employer organisations and federations registered under the ... view
• 16 May 2007 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I can assure you that I will speak very briefly and give time to my colleague, hon. Angwenyi, to contribute. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, first and foremost, I want to thank the PIC for doing a very splendid job. Year in, year out, we must have seen some voluminous reports of the PIC. I am sure it has actually carried out its mandate given by this House. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, many hon. Members here have positively talked about this Report. But I want to emphasize a few issues that have been, perhaps, touched ... view
• 16 May 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would only add that, perhaps, State Corporations must stick to their core functions, and that it is the role of the Ministry to make sure that they supervise. With those few remarks, I beg to support. view
• 15 May 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, this is a very serious issue because it is addressing over 300 schools. Would I be in order to ask, through you, for this Question to be deferred because the answers in both instances, were quite unsatisfactory? There was a formal complaint and the Assistant Minister is not aware. She should now go and investigate because the answer that she has been given is quite inadequate. view
• 10 May 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, on the issue of the Identity Card, my understanding is that at the age of 21 years, if that lady does not decide that she is a Kenyan citizen, she automatically loses her Kenyan citizenship. It is not a question of submitting an application. Could the Minister clarify why she cannot get an identity card now because I think the explanation is the opposite of what the Minister is saying? At the age of 21 if she does not denounce the other citizenship; she automatically loses Kenyan citizenship and not the reverse of what the Minister ... view
• 10 May 2007 in National Assembly: asked the Minister for Local Government:- (a) whether he is aware that no sites have been set aside for markets and bus parks in Modogashe, Garba-Tulla and Kinna Divisional Headquarters; and, (b) when markets and bus parks will be constructed at the above centres. view
• 10 May 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, although the Assistant Minister is a friend of mine, this is a very unsatisfactory answer and I have to do my part now--- view
• 10 May 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, these centres that I have mentioned, that is, Modogashe, Garba-Tulla and Kinna have been in existence even before I was born. Businesses have been going on in these centres and these people need markets. The council has been allocating plots. Could the Assistant Minister stop dilly-dallying and direct the council to immediately set aside plots in the same manner they have been allocating plots to the general public? view
