• 14 Sep 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I did not want to interrupt the Counsel. However, he has made a point that seems to be completely confusing the House. If you want to lease a building and there are four or five people who are ready to offer such a building, with your assertion that a lease is not an item of procurement, how then will you make a determination out of these five without going through the Public Procurement and Disposal Act procedure? Could you clarify? view
• 14 Sep 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, listening to the responses from the witness, maybe as the Chair of the proceedings, you need to caution him of the consequences of deliberately misleading us. view
• 14 Sep 2016 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
• 14 Sep 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, hearing some of the answers the Auditor-General has given, we might need to probe him a little bit so that he is even more clearer at this stage. Mr. Ouko, you have told us that you do not want to say one way or the other when the lawyer asked you whether there is any reason why the County Assembly would be stopped from looking into the Accounts of the Executive if you have not audited the accounts at the time they are doing so? May I take you down memory lane? In your experience in this ... view
• 14 Sep 2016 in Senate: Would you like to give us such an example? view
• 14 Sep 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, so that I will not be seen to be fishing for something, I put it to the Auditor-General that he has appeared before this Parliament before and helped it on a matter which he had not concluded audit on and he gave us an opinion. That included the issue of the printing of the Kenya Currency by De La Rue. Is it true or not? view
• 14 Sep 2016 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Sen. Mong’are has raised a very pertinent issue. He has asked the Auditor to explain to Kenyans why he chose not to recommend that the Kshs29 million that the Governor allowed from public funds to renovate a private building should not be recovered from him. Mr. Speaker, Sir, this is going to be a turning point if the country is going to believe that public funds can be used to improve a private building and public funds continue paying rent for that improved building and that the Auditor-General finds nothing wrong with ... view
• 14 Sep 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I thank the Controller of Budget for taking so long to confirm that the County Assembly of Nyeri was right in finding that Kshs70 million had been spent without the authorization of the Controller of Budget. This is because where I come from, a sum of Kshs70million is a lot of money and the members of the public are watching. It is as simple as this: You have left money in the house for the servant to spend Kshs545 for lunch, since there was other money in the safe in this house, the servant spends Kshs615 and ... view
• 14 Sep 2016 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, thank you. To the Governor, there is evidence that indeed, you were invited to attend the proceedings but could not. Could you clarify; did you present yourself accompanied by your lawyer and you were turned away? Two, you have asserted that the accounting officer was responsible for the mistake of non-disclosure of the amount of around Kshs352 million. Are you aware that had you honoured the invitation, you were free to be accompanied by that officer and that all you needed to do was to introduce the officer and he would have discharged on your behalf ... view
