19 Dec 2012 in National Assembly:
On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Did you hear the Attorney-General of Kenya say that a Minister of Government had advised him when the country knows that for Prof. Muigai to become the Attorney-General he went through a competitive process that deliberately found that he was competent. Now he is admitting that he incapable of advising the Government. Could the Chair guide this House as to whether, indeed, this Government has got an official Government advisor?

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I just wanted to remind the Chair that when we raised this matter in the morning and you captured the urgency of the issue, the Minister was not there. The Minister happens to be in the House and, probably, he could shed some light on it. Maybe he has a ready answer.

19 Dec 2012 in National Assembly:
Finally, I also wish to seek your indulgence. This morning, a matter was concluded very well by the Minister for Medical Services concerning the strike by the nurses and we were happy to hear that they have returned to the hospitals. Unfortunately, following the remarks by the Minister on the Floor of this House this morning, the same nurses who had gone back to hospitals have come out and are on the streets. They are demanding that the Government, and not the Minister, apologizes to the nurses of Kenya because the Minister repeatedly convinced this House, although we did not ...

5 Dec 2012 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this Question touches mainly on Kakamega County that produces 80 per cent of the sugar consumed in this country. There are three major factories; Mumias Sugar Company, Butali Sugar Company and West Kenya Sugar Company. The shocking thing in the Assistant Minister’s response is that the terrain for all those companies is the same and Mumias Sugar Company has zoned. As you correctly said, the cane planting areas where the more you move away from the factory, the more you are charged for transport. Is he aware that whereas Mumias in zone one charges up to ...

On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I just want to thank you and request that since the Assistant Minister has been so kind to say that he wants to go on the ground and establish the facts--- It is important because under our Standing Orders, Questions are supposed to press for action, could you kindly push him to tell the House when he will report back, so that we have an opportunity to help farmers to get the price go down?

On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is the Assistant Minister in order to tell us that he is waiting for the next financial year before he acts, when at the same time he has told us that the road is still under the defects liability period, which means the 10 per cent of the money that is set aside to correct any areas that were not very well worked on? If there is a missing flyover bridge, it is a defect in the construction of the road. Why can he not use part of the 10 per ...

Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to support this Bill with the strong proviso that when it comes to the House, probably tommorow, at the Committee Stage, I plead with hon. Members that we do not pass it in its entirety, but we balance what is good against what is not quite acceptable. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to use this opportunity to congratulate the Registrar of Political Parties. Since we got the new Constitution everybody in the country has been working within strict timelines. I want to agree with Mr. Midiwo that the envisaged office of ...
