• 2 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: unfair to deny him the opportunity. Indeed, the Salaries and Remuneration Commission is a very unique commission, in the sense that all commissioners are from different nominating bodies. We have a nominee from Parliament, Public Service Commission--- view
• 2 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: I think you need to guide the House. He needs to be patient. I am moving the Report and he will have his opportunity to make those comments at the right time. view
• 2 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: I have already explained that in a scale we are looking at academic qualifications, tax compliance and everything else including that aspect. He needs to be patient and contribute at the right time. view
• 2 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: Having said that, I had already explained and it is on record, we once said if Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission has an issue, they must tell us what they are investigating. If it were you hon. Abdikadir, I am sure you would not be happy if somebody excluded you just because you were under investigation. In fact, we asked the nominee whether he was aware that he was under investigation and he told us he was not aware. What kind of investigations are we talking about if somebody is even not aware that he is being investigated? I think this ... view
• 2 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: Generally, he demonstrated a wide experience in public administration. He has served in the Office of the Prime Minister and is currently working at the Office of the Deputy President. In terms of public administration, he demonstrated good knowledge of the same. view
• 2 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: Madam Deputy Speaker, the only issues or questions which were being raised concern regional balance but as we said, we cannot use one individual to correct--- view
• 2 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker. I have always said that the House must rise above pettiness. I think that is the statement that will carry the day. But I withdraw that if it makes my friend uncomfortable. So, I withdraw that word. view
• 2 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: So that we make progress, I want to respond to my friend who rose on a point of order on the other ex-official members. That was the Commission as composed in 2012. The names the Member has read out are actually institutional officers. He should quickly note now that if there is a change in Principal Secretary, the new Principal Secretary will sit in that Commission. I would like to convince the hon. Member that the names are as constituted in 2012. That is the list as constituted in 2012. view
• 2 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, the nominee declared that he had already been charged with regard to the sale of shares of Kenya Seed Company (KSC). At one time he was the alternate Director to the Permanent Secretary for one meeting in which they approved the sale of the shares of KSC. view
• 2 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: He also tabled a ruling in the Committee that he was subsequently acquitted of that charge. So, he was that honest to table that ruling which is attached to the report. I want to request the House that we approve this nomination so that the SRC is now complete. The list should now be complete so that the National Police Service is represented in the SRC. We hope that this nominee will be a voice of soberness in that Commission which one, Linturi had an issue with. This will enable the Commission to discharge its duties properly. view
