3 Dec 2015 in Senate:
Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, what will go to the Committee on Implementation and indeed any other agencies like Ethics and Anti- Corruption Commission (EACC) or CID will use the report and not the HANSARD. At this stage, the Chair needs to guide the House on what we can do so that it is part of the report. These are very serious issues.

3 Dec 2015 in Senate:
Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I rise to support this Motion on two points. The first one is that it is our tradition in this House for a technical issue like this, we, normally, leave it to the Committee to be the resource. So, the Committee having tabled it, I am sure they have sufficiently been informed to ask us to support them and this, I do. My second reason is that implementation of this Constitution is not a simple matter. Therefore, there are certain institutional strategies, procedures and tactics that have been tabled by Mr. Charles Nyachae and his colleagues ...

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I laud the statement by the Senator for Busia County. It reminds me that in my other life, when I was in charge of the Association for Family Planning of Kenya, as the medical in charge, I used to operate in Busia District Hospital.

2 Dec 2015 in Senate:
Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I have lived several lives, including the one of bull fighting. It saddens me that just a few years ago, when I was working at that hospital, it was the preferred hospital not only to the people of Busia but to even Ugandans. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, today when the health docket is being managed by the governor together with Dr. Maurice Simiyu, a highly qualified doctor, it is sad that this county government of Busia is unable to work with medical personnel. It reminds us of how in this same county, 20 children were paralyzed ...

2 Dec 2015 in Senate:
Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, this Statement is signed by the Cabinet Secretary (CS), James Macharia. He was in this Chamber fielding questions from Senators. I recall that we raised the issue of the Kshs38 billion that was used by the Jubilee Government and the President announced that specialised medical equipment had been acquired. Amongst the equipment were beds for the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). I request that you direct further that the Committee does not seek for answers, but we forward these questions to the CS to come and face us squarely. When he comes, I would like him to ...
