22 Feb 2012 in National Assembly:
Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I want to agree with the hon. Member that we must be extremely clear on what it is that the Committee attempts to do. However, we also have to answer the following. What was the intention of the report going to the Committee? As the Chair makes that judgment, my understanding is as follows. The reason why this matter goes to the Committee is for the Committee to accompany that report as they table it with recommendations.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, there are those recommendations upon which we will debate and either agree with those recommendations or reject them. Having finally, as a House, agreed on the kind of recommendations we want to give to that report, those agreed positions by this House will then be taken to the IEBC and the Commission will treat those recommendations by this House in the same manner that they treated the views when they collected views from the public.

I, therefore, would like to request the Chair that you allow the Committee to do what they are doing, they bring the report here, we look at their recommendations and we either agree with them or adjust them. When we are finally agreed, we hand those recommendations to the IEBC and allow the Commission to enjoy its independence under the Constitution by deciding whatever it wants to decide about the recommendations of this House.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to use this opportunity to thank the Ministry of Medical Services, and especially the Permanent Secretary, Ms. Mary Ngare, for the rapid response that they demonstrated in relation to this hospital. I have no further questions. I am satisfied. I would only want to inform the Assistant Minister that on Monday, I will take to him the designs and Bills of Quantities, which have been developed by the County Public Works Office in Kakamega, so that the Ministry can release the money immediately.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, as I said, I have no further questions, but may I also use this opportunity to inform the Assistant Minister that the original thinking behind the Ikolomani CDF Committee purchasing the 10 acres of land was that we wanted to develop a medical training college on the plot. Maybe, he could use this opportunity to say that he has no objection.

On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The Minister has told us that there was a court ruling. We know that the Attorney-General is not an appellant institution. Is he in order to refuse to act according to the orders of the court and purport to wait for the opinion of the Attorney-General as if the Attorney-General is a member of the Court of Appeal?
