• 6 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I rise to ask Question No.470 of 2019 which is directed to the Cabinet Secretary for the National Treasury and Planning. (i) Could the Cabinet Secretary provide the status of formulation of the Monitoring and Evaluation Policy noting that the Government has adopted results-based management as a key driver of development programmes in the country? (ii) What measures has the Ministry put in place to ensure that there is an existing policy framework to guide feedback on the effectiveness of the implementation of development programmes set out in the Third Medium-Term Plan of Vision 2030 and ... view
• 6 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I must declare my interest. I am a Member of the Caucus on Sustainable Development Goals. At the same time, I am a member of African Inland Church (AIC). I am in a Catch-22 situation. Looking at the mood of the House, even if we moved this Motion, it is actually dead on arrival. That is the truth of the matter. My suggestion is that we have further consultation on this matter and then we see what the House will say. That is my proposal. view
• 6 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I am just trying to find out since Section 25 is part of the Bill and Clause 3 will automatically come before Section 25, whether there will be any harm if the wording of Section 25 would have possibly have been baseless other than making reference to it. That means you delete Clause 3 and then you have to move to Section 25. I am not a legal expert, but maybe drafting will not allow that. I am just finding out. view
• 6 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: I have no problem with the amendment. For purposes of user friendliness of this Bill, will there be any harm if that was done? However, I support the amendment. view
• 6 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, as he has said, this is a matter of just providing more clarity to that clause. I support. view
• 6 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, for purposes of making a decision, could the Chair of the Committee inform us why he thinks the Cabinet Secretary should not appoint the Data Commissioner and it must be the President? We have many people at this level who are appointed by Cabinet Secretaries. view
• 6 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I would have been very concerned if the word used was “shall”. However, when it is “may” I support. view
• 6 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I want to agree with the Leader of the Majority Party that while the use of the word “competitive” makes a lot of sense because it is anticipated, the second part of the amendment is already catered for in the Constitution. So, we may not need it. view
• 30 Oct 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I want to confirm that I have not spoken to this Motion. From the outset, I support the Motion. I thank the Mover, Hon. John Wambugu, for this important Motion. We know it is now Government policy that we have 100 per cent transition from primary to secondary schools. This Motion is proposing the same 100 per cent transition from secondary school to tertiary institutions, which will promote vocational training. This Motion is important because when you look at the Vision 2030 and the Big Four Agenda, you realise that there is a lot of ... view
• 30 Oct 2019 in National Assembly: you realise it is not sustainable. Someone cannot be a boda boda rider up to the retirement age. Some will not continue to get income for a long time. It is just for a short time and they start doing other things. Looking at vocational training, this is an area which has a huge demand in this country in terms of skills. I want to give you an example. If you want to put up a small commercial structure in your local town and you are looking for a plumber, an electrician or a carpenter, you might have to wait ... view
