• 27 Jul 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to congratulate the Minister for reminding the hon. Members that the issue of sexual offences does not require any specialty. In their curricular, all doctors are prepared to handle that adequately. But having said that, the challenge why patients or rather victims of sexual offences are frustrated, is because of lack of logistics in terms of not having enough doctors to attend to these patients in time; usually preferably the first one hour. Secondly, when those doctors eventually attend to these patients, by the time the matter comes up in court, the doctor who ... view
• 27 Jul 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I notice that you have just moved back to the Ordinary Questions. I want to remind the Chair that, the Chair has not commented on Question No.1 by Private Notice. view

• 27 Jul 2011 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. The Prime Minister talked about compassion. Hon. Members will remember that Somalia refugees who are in this country are here courtesy of the UN Convention on Refugees which Kenya is a signatory. A Minister of the Government of the Prime Minister and President Mwai Kibaki is on record as having said that all those refugees should be relocated to Somalia so that the Kenyan Government can feed them from there. I would like the Prime Minister to confirm whether, indeed, this is the official position of his Government and allay our fears that the ... view
• 27 Jul 2011 in National Assembly: Definitely not, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. For all we care to know, the hon. Member might as well be in court because of the problems he has been having. However, since this is a very important Question concerning the public health implications of Ebola, I request that you use your discretion to consider two possibilities. It is either you allow the Minister to respond so that we ask the Question on behalf of the hon. Member or you do not drop the Question but instead defer it to next week. view
• 27 Jul 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. You will recall that, yesterday, you directed that today, the Prime Minister also uses this opportunity to address the issue of the arrest of the 34 activists. Since, we have run out of time, probably, you can make a clear directive, so that Kenyans can know how the Government is going to respond on this particular matter and when. view
• 27 Jul 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to oppose the amendment by hon. Mbadi. As I oppose the amendment, I am asking myself: Since we want to lower the budget that is supposed to give Kenyans security, have we had time to go and talk to the members of the families of the victims of the bombing that took place at the US Embassy in Nairobi? What would they say? What would the family members of the victims of the bombing that took place in Paradise Hotel, Mombasa, say? Those events took place because, maybe, our intelligence system was not up ... view
• 27 Jul 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would not want to respond too much to what hon. Mbadi is telling me, because being a new Member of this House, he does not know that, having been given an opportunity in his committee to record his minority view, it was supposed to end there. He should not have brought it here to take up any more time of this committee, but that is not my point. My point is--- view
• 27 Jul 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to agree. I stand guided by what hon. Ethuro has said, but allow me to change what I meant by that; actually I should have said he is less experienced. I am more experienced than him. view
• 27 Jul 2011 in National Assembly: The fourth point I would like to make on this intended removal of the money from the Budget is an appeal to presidential candidates. Presidential candidates are raising the possibility that somebody wants to use this money in his presidential campaigns. Are you saying that is possible when Parliament still exercises its oversight role? view
