• 30 Mar 2016 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. view
• 30 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I do not know whether in the meaning of Standing Order No.45(2)(c), under which the Senate Minority Leader is now proceeding, he should be allowed to read that statement. This is because this Standing Order is very clear. It only contemplates the reading of this Statement every Thursday. It does not move any further than that to provide that in the event that there is a Special Sitting of the House on the following day where the President or anybody else is addressing the House, then the statement will be brought forward. view
• 30 Mar 2016 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. Indeed, I was going to do exactly that. The reason why the drafters of this Constitution put Article 132 was so that it is not left in doubt for the President to make it an opportunity for full The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only.

• 30 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, we have no problem. However, let it be noted that there was a Communication from the Chair that the Standing Committee on Finance, Commerce and Budget would not be allowed to transact any other Business until--- view
• 30 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, when you did, I heard. I was citing to emphasize it. You should direct that on the first day when we come from the recess, we should hear this answer. The quality of answer that they gave us is unacceptable. They want to mislead the country that they spent only Kshs2 billion when we know that it is much in excess of that. This is another National Youth Service (NYS) scandal. view
• 24 Mar 2016 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I have heard you very well. You are the eyes and the head of this House. I request you to go and explore the best way forward with your counterpart in the National Assembly. We, as Senate, find it very difficult to agree that after Article 110(3) of the Constitution has been overlooked, side-stepped and violated, we then go ahead as if those three things have not happened.

• 24 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I just want to help the House by confirming that since this matter was brought before you, nothing has been done. On the same day that the matter came up, Sen. Khaniri and I sought further clarification from the Chair, to confirm to us that the issues canvassed had been brought by a Committee of this House and the whole House had then made its decision. We sought whether there was still room for us to do further pursuit. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I think that clarification has not come and that is why we did not move ... view
• 24 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the House will recall that in the first financial year, we allocated West Pokot County Kshs3.5 billion. The following year, they received Kshs.47 billion. For purposes of the people of West Pokot in particular and Kenyans in general, who cannot accept a child dropping out of school because of hunger or dying due to lack of food, it would help if the Vice Chairman, in his statement, could tell us how much money this county government voted for food. How much of the emergency fund that is in that budget has been committed to this particular ... view
• 24 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I rise to second this Motion. I do so in very good faith because of procedure. Whereas the Standing Orders give us the power to alter our calendar, we want to do so with good reason. I am glad that the Senate Deputy Majority Leader has given us a very good reason; that, what is the point of wasting money, confusion of going and gazetting the sitting for that day and what not and then you come back to receive the Presidential Address. It is a valid reason so, I support. However, as I support--- view
