• 15 May 2014 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Sen. Gideon Moi has informed us that they were looking at the whole country for 24 years. Could he substantiate why while they were looking after the whole country, they refused to look after Baringo? view
• 15 May 2014 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. It might help the House, if we want to move forward, to remember that we have in our possession a paper that was laid in this House by the Chairman of the Committee of Finance, Commerce and Budget. In that paper, on page 12, we are informed that our Committee held a meeting on 8th May, 2014. That is a meeting that I attended. view
• 15 May 2014 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am on page 12 on meeting with the national Treasury. You will notice that in that meeting, we pressed the national Treasury to tell us which accounts they were using.

• 15 May 2014 in Senate: Mr. Chairman, Sir, I rise to second these amendments with the following comments. Hon. Senators, if you refer to Article 187(2) of the Constitution, it says that if a function or power is transferred from a Government at one level to a Government at the other level- (a) arrangements shall be put in place to ensure that resources necessary for the performance of the function or exercise of the power are transferred; (b) constitutional responsibility for the performance or exercise of the power shall remain in the Government to which it is assigned by the Fourth Schedule.

• 15 May 2014 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Chairman, Sir. When the first black American President came to Africa, he said that Africa needs strong institutions, not strong leaders. Mr. Chairman, Sir, this afternoon, we have consistently been supporting this Bill because we believe in a strong institution called the Committee of Finance, Commerce and Budget. By extension, a strong institution called the Senate and the CRA. Now, what happens? We are real time politicians and things have changed. When the Government came before the Committee, they told us that if we do not accept Kshs226 billion, they will be forced to borrow Kshs36 billion ... view
• 15 May 2014 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, during this debate a very important issue of which accounts to be used has arisen. I would like to say, at this point, that it is important that the two Speakers consult and see whether it is not possible to ask the Public Accounts Committee of the National Assembly to start with last year’s accounts before they do the others. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to support. view
