• 23 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Hon. Members, purely because of the limitation of time that we are remaining with, let us dispose of this amendment and then the rest of you could speak after we have disposed it of this. view
• 22 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
• 22 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: No, Mr. Speaker, Sir. It is on procedure. view
• 22 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to ask the Minister for Youth Affairs and Sports the following Question by Private Notice. (a) Could the Minister table an account of the funds spent by the Kenyan delegation in the just ended All Africa Games that were held in Maputo, Mozambique? (b) Could the Minister also table the full list of persons who travelled to Maputo indicating their respective roles? (c) How many of these were “joy-riders” who travelled and lived on Government funds? view
• 22 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, before I ask my first supplementary question, I would like to invite the Chair to look at the documents that the honourable Minister has tabled. The first document he has tabled purports to be the accounts of the expenditure of Kshs253 million plus. If you look at that document--- From the little time I have served on the Public Accounts Committee (PAC), I am aware that a document of the Government representing expenditure is not packaged the way he has packaged this one.

When he says air tickets were bought, we would like the Kshs42 million for air tickets also to be supported by actual documents. This cannot pass. We want to see how the Ministry spent this money before we ask supplementary questions. view
• 22 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I have not even asked my first supplementary question. I was merely inviting the Chair to look at the documents that the Minister has tabled. Could you give an indication on how we should proceed? view
• 22 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. You have quite at length educated us about your findings that have led you in making that ruling that we are fairly uncomfortable with. Mr. Speaker, Sir, with all due respect, you have cited the bad old days that we wanted to move away from. You have also cited the case of Uganda, which for all intents and purposes, is not a democracy but a dictatorship. view
• 22 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I withdraw the words “Uganda is a dictatorship.” Allow me to say that you have cited the case of Uganda, which is faced with momentous challenges in the issue implementation of the democratic practice in that country. view
