• 27 Nov 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the question of the cost of spending at the NSSF is of great concern to all Kenyans. Could the Minister tell the House whether he intends, or he has any plans, to address the issue of administering this Fund? We all know that the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) can actually do the administration of this Fund by way of collecting money on behalf of this body, so that all these thieves whom the Minister has refused to arrest are not given an opportunity to administer the Fund. view
• 27 Nov 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I want to thank the Minister for that, but is he really in order to refuse to answer the question? view
• 27 Nov 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is the Assistant Minister in order to refuse to take seriously this matter when we, as Public Accounts Committee (PAC), are waiting for him because this House voted Kshs20 billion for equipment of teachers for onward transmission to the Teachers Service view
• 27 Nov 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, according to our Standing Orders, the purpose of Questions is to seek information and also press for action. Mr. Speaker, Temporary Speaker, Sir, according to the Standing Orders, we must press for action so that the Ministry of Roads can go to Tassia Estate and repair those roads. Is the Assistant Minister in order to refuse to reassure the House that he is going to move on site? view
• 27 Nov 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. Listening to the hon. Minister, probably, we should go back to the Chair to make a determination whether the Cabinet can take away constitutional right of one Kenyan or more Kenyans without even reference to Parliament and to the citizens of Kenya. If this is the case, before we give the country the impression that Parliament is supporting Cabinet on the fact that they are going to deny Kenyans their constitutional right, probably the Chair needs to consider and send the Minister back to Cabinet, so that the Cabinet can ... view
• 27 Nov 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the first four general elections after the multiparty system were bogged down by only one cry - and I know many Members in this House know what some of us went through because of one thing. The then Electoral Commission was not perceived to be independent; that it was under the control of the Government. In fact, we went on and changed the name of the commission from the “Electoral Commission of Kenya (ECK)” to the “Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC)”. Is the Minister telling us that the new commission has now lost its ... view
• 27 Nov 2012 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I rise to strongly support this Report. This is because when the Commision on Allocation of Revenue first talked about this issue, very many of us made noise and we were very apprehensive. But, finally, it has come before us and due diligence has taken place. I wish to support it. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, listening to the two Senators-in-waiting who have spoken before me, hon. Ethuro and Prof. Anyang’-Nyong’o, I have no doubt that this role which his currently being discharged by this Committee will be adequately tackled by us when ... view
• 27 Nov 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, that was a “commercial break.” Please, hon. Millie! view
• 27 Nov 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, let us not belabour this because I do not want to pretend that I sit in the Supreme Court which is charged with the responsibility of interpreting the Constitution. If the hon. Member has any doubt, she should remember what happened when there was a tussle for the position of who is senior between the Prime Minister and Vice-President and Minister for Home Affairs. Slowly, the court of public opinion has reminded the Vice-President and the Minister for Home Affairs that the Prime Minister is nearer the President than himself. So, hon. Millie, it is ... view
• 27 Nov 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I just wanted to make a small important point, that the Ministry of Planning, National Development and Vision 2030, whatever it will be called must realise from now that the issue of statistics will be extremely crucial. view
