• 14 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity. I have looked at the proposed amendments. I must say that, in addition to the more substantive amendments, there are also amendments to do with editorials. For example, in the Bill they are saying we replace the Kenya Rural Roads Authority with the Kenya National Secondary Roads Authority which is a new terminology we are adopting. I do not have a problem with this because it aligned to the Bill. Another issue is in Clause 102, where they are saying, since we will have new authorities, we need a ... view
• 14 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: Some of these proposed amendments do not make sense. I agree with those who are saying they are unconstitutional. On this basis, we need to reject such kinds of amendments and only approve those which are editorial in terms of trying to align them with the language. With those many remarks, I support rejection of these amendments. view
• 13 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I also want to make my observations in terms of this Motion. view
• 13 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 13 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I must say that the appointment of these board members is long overdue. We all know that it has taken four years to have this board in place. I think we are going to be very unfair to the process, if we do not say that some people have slept on their job, more so, the Cabinet Secretaries who have been in charge of this NG-CDF docket. How do you expect an important Fund like this to be managed in four years without a board? To me, this is serious oversight and we must ... view
• 13 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, this is a serious House and this information is in the Report. It is not my work to read for Hon. Members. It is their work to read for themselves. If he has not read, he can tell his people he has not read. That is why he is here representing his people. The truth of the matter is to look at the Report and you will see the four people I am mentioning. I do not have to mention names here. The other important issue which once the board takes office should do is the ... view
• 12 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. view
• 12 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. You know what the Chair has said is very worrying. He is saying that a Member of his Committee who has moved this Report distorted information. Is he in order? He says we are debating based on distorted information. Who moved this Report? view
• 12 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Let me add my voice to this important debate. Listening to Members debate, I thank Hon. Katoo for setting some records straight, although I think he did it a bit late. The Leader of the Majority Party raised very pertinent issues about this visit. If I was the Chair of the Committee, I would have come in at that point to set the record straight because this is a House of records, but they say it is better late than never. Now that we have the facts, we can debate a bit. This Report ... view
• 12 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: to be a wrong thing. They are protecting our lives and at the same time making sure that they are able to report to us in peace. Listening to the contributions, the Report has gaps which we can correct by making some amendments, corrections and other recommendations to improve it. We cannot say it is just totally rubbish. We can improve it by amending it so that at the end of the day we move forward. As I conclude because I want to allow one more Member to contribute, this Report brings out the fact that we need a thorough ... view
