• 11 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. My point of order is directed to the Leader of Government Business. Under the old Constitution, very many things were done by the Executive at the pleasure of the President. This time, the pleasure of the President does not count at all. Many Questions here go unanswered, because either Ministers are not here, they are late, are sick or have travelled. However, of greater concern to me are Questions directed to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Higher Education, Science and Technology. These are two Ministries which have ... view
• 11 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, at no time did I request the Deputy Leader of Government Business to go and advise the President. We look at the Leader of Government Business as the nexus between this National Assembly and the Executive, view
• 10 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, on the list of the development partners who are supporting this country in this programme, the Minister has avoided to indicate the programme that was being driven by the former US Ambassador. Is he saying that this was not monitored by the Government? If it was monitored by the Government, how much money was the then ambassador pumping into the programme and which programmes was he supporting? view
• 10 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. This matter was raised by hon. Okemo. Since he is the local MP he has specific issues and I notice he is not around. I request that we defer the Statement until he comes, so that we take the Statement. view

• 10 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, when coffee farmers had a problem in this country the Government intervened. Whenever drought hits the livestock farmers, usually the Government intervenes and helps them to restock. We want to find out what crime the sugar-cane farmers committed against this Government, so that the Government goes to our people and begs them to leave their homes; homes they did not want to leave so that they can give us a factory. It is sad that once that was done, they view
• 10 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. The Minister should still answer the question because she is hiding in the fact that a new board is being formed when she knows that when elections were called the same old directors won the elections. So, the same ones who were being controlled are still the same ones who won the elections and, therefore, we as leaders of sugar-cane farmers, we do not expect any progress. Can she tell us how the Government will intervene? view

• 10 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Yes, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
• 10 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the matter of the African Safari Club has been coming here. I believe this is the third time it has come here. Could the Minister, when he comes with the Statement, also indicate the total indebtedness of the African Safari Club to the workers, so that should he choose to agree with them that they should be laid off, he tells us what he intends to do to ensure that these people are paid what they are owed? view
