• 6 May 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, just to use your own words, this Bill is time bound. I would like you to recall that this Bill and the Bill in Order No.9 were the subject of a press release by the Speaker of the National Assembly where he informed the country that we are sitting on Bills that are time bound and that he was asking the Senate to ensure that these Bills are passed timeously. Now, given that the National Assembly extended that period by nine months and they have waited from the first month up to the eighth, only coming now, ... view
• 6 May 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I know that this is a dangerous area to go but judging by your pronouncements in the recent past and now, could it be that you have become born again? view
• 6 May 2015 in Senate: Madam Temporary Chair, Sir, previous debate on the same Bill passed through contributions from Members. There was a deliberate effort to kill this Bill. In fact, one Member moved to suggest as much. Could the Chair guide us on whether the Mover of the Bill has deliberately refused to be present so as to help his Bill to die? view
• 6 May 2015 in Senate: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Chairlady. Does that mean that you have made an undertaking that before we commence an undertaking on this Bill, you will make a formal communication regarding the response to my concern in respect of a deliberate effort by the Mover so as to help his own Bill to die? view
• 6 May 2015 in Senate: Madam Temporary Chairperson, I have two points of order. First, when you stood up, you only bowed to the Government side. You did not bow to the Opposition side. Are you being partisan? view
• 6 May 2015 in Senate: Madam Temporary Chairperson, my second point of order is; why are we standing? We have been standing for the last seven minutes. view
• 6 May 2015 in Senate: seconded. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate. view
• 6 May 2015 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, having read this Amendment Bill very carefully, I confess that I cannot help admiring the ingenuity and industry of the Senator for Meru County, Sen. Murungi. This is because, had he not put serious thought into this, the only cure to what he has attempted to achieve through this piece of legislation would have been to amend the Constitution. Now that he has managed not to amend the Constitution and achieved what that amendment would have required, kudos to him. Madam Temporary Speaker, I was thinking about this Bill last night. I was wondering; when political expediency ... view
• 5 May 2015 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I rise under StandingOrder No.71 to request you to make a determination on whether the vote that was taken in the Committee of the Whole is a vote. This is because while you were going on, a point of order was raised on the implications of a Senator voting for Sen. Sonko. A determination was not made and this has constitutional implications because Standing Order No. 71 is actually drawn directly from the provisions of the Constitution in Article 123. I want to remind you that when Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Snr. ... view
• 5 May 2015 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I thank you for guiding me. However, I would like you to clarify something further. Having guided me, I am still not clear. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, you have confirmed that the Speaker declined the request for stepping aside by Sen. Sonko. view
