29 Aug 2012 in National Assembly:
On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I am sorry to insist. I deliberately took the Question to the Prime Minister because it was intending to pre-empt the strike. It went to his office because the Treasury had released Kshs200 million for pay out to these doctors. Some of that money had gone to the Ministry of Public Health and

Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to thank all the Members who have contributed. It is so nice to note that none of them has recorded dissent. I want to encourage them. They suggested amendments to improve the Bill. We still have room when the matter comes up in the Committee of the Whole House. I also want to use this opportunity to thank two sets of people; we have an initiative called the National Pyramid Victims Initiative. This initiative is led by Pastor Samuel Kariuki together with Bishop W. Wamboilero, Eliud Thuku, Joseph Kinyua and

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, just like in this road, in many other roads the Kenya Power Company usually frustrates contractors by not relocating services. What tools of enforcement do you have to ensure that Kenya Power, when it is paid to relocate, does so timeously?

On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I wish to request for a Ministerial Statement, but before I do that, allow me to remind the Office of the Prime Minister that we were expecting a response tomorrow about what action the Government was going to take to pre-empt the doctors’ strike. The strike has now begun. So, probably just to re-emphasize that he comes with the Statement tomorrow.

On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I notice that we have come to the end of Statements and, therefore, we are about to embark on business. I, therefore, rise on Standing Order No.1(2) and Standing Order No.36 on behalf of the Committee that I chair; the Public Accounts Committee.

The business of the Report of the Public Accounts Committee where we are asking this House to adopt the Report of the Public Accounts Committee on the matter of the currency printing contract between the Central Bank of Kenya (CBK) and De La Rue Company which was laid on the Table of this House on 1st August, 2012. That is an overwhelming 27 days. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the urgency of this matter and the contradiction is that whereas under Standing Order No.1(2) matters are supposed to be dealt with in this House according to tradition, I have already drawn ...

Yes, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I have two reasons for the urgency. One, is the letter from the Treasury. The letter from Permanent Secretary, Kinyua says: “RE: DIRTY AND MUTILATED KENYA CURRENCY NOTES IN CIRCULATION.

28 Aug 2012 in National Assembly:
Yes, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I now table a copy of the letter. The second aspect of the urgency before I allow my colleauge to add is that the long and short of our report is that Kshs1.8 billion has been lost through a clever system that has been running over the years through interim orders. So, if we do not conclude this matter, and the Treasury proceeds to procure, it may again be under the same interim order and Kenyans will lose a further Kshs0.4 billion. That is how grave it is. I table the letter.
