6 Nov 2015 in Senate:
On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. According to the traditions of Parliament, if a Committee sits and then after 30 minutes the Committee, for whatever reasons, is unable to transact business, that Committee stands suspended. I seek your indulgence to guide the House that since it is 6.49 p.m., and you have given us 15 minutes--- Since the Sitting began at 6.30 p.m., you need to guide this House on what will happen upon the expiry of the 30 minutes. This is because what we are having today is a “Committee of the Whole.” Could you guide us ...

On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I thank you for allowing me to rise on this point of order. My concern is that this is not the first time that we are interrogating a process like the one we are doing this evening. We had such cases in Embu, Kericho and Machakos counties. When you guided us under Standing Order No.1, our understanding was that you were helping us to move away from the practice that we have since established which this House knows. As soon as the report comes, it is tabled, we retreat, read and then ...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I agree with that Petition. However, I request the Committee to which this matter will be marked, during their investigation, not to lose sight of the fact that the answer obviously lies somewhere. It lies in the Constitution. The way we structured the function of health, it was an oversight in the sense that, it cuts across the 47 counties. Most governors led by Mandera and Elgeyo-Marakwet have done very well in terms of infrastructure development of the facilities. However, in all counties, they have failed to manage human resource. I, therefore, challenge the Committee to strongly ...

Is Sen. Haji in order to imagine that there is a vacuum in the leadership of CORD, when he knows very well that the able Senator for Wajir is here, leading us and we have not complained? The only mishap is that the Senate Minority Leader, Sen. Wetangula is where his equals are. He has taken his seat in Dar-es-Salaam, next to President Uhuru, to congratulate President Magufuli. What is the big deal?
