• 26 Jul 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, thank you for the direction. In that case, because the matter touches the Ministry of State for Internal Security, and the State Law Office, I would request that the Prime Minister takes up the matter tomorrow afternoon since it is cross-cutting. view
• 26 Jul 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. On behalf of those Kenyans who are currently in police cells, I feel seriously insulted. I feel pained because these are the same young people who fought for the new Constitution. Some of whom had their limbs broken and others their lives lost when the hon. Member was a busy chief executive in some other areas I do not know. He has no respect for them. The same hon. Member--- view
• 21 Jul 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, maybe this Assistant Minister is not hearing what you are telling him. While you were seated on that Chair, he has on very many occasions told hon. Members that: “I am going to give you a police patrol” car and all manner of stuff. However, he never lives to effect those things. In our view as hon. Members from the Back Bench, we believe that he does not take us seriously. He just plays to the gallery! view
• 21 Jul 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would like to reiterate that it is important that you consider that request and, indeed, refer this matter to the Committee on Powers and Privileges. Mr. Speaker, Sir, you will recall that the time Mr. Gor Sungu was caught up in this matter, it was before the transmissions of this House were made live. If members of the Judiciary could understand how we were operating at that time, then they would appreciate that now when we are enjoying our privilege of immunity while on the Floor of the House. Because we are being transmitted live, members ... view
• 21 Jul 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, indeed, this is a very weighty issue, especially now when Kenyans are faced with the challenge of accessing food. It is true that food is very expensive and, indeed, the other essential goods like petrol and so on. Could the Assistant Minister be specific? When are those consultations going to end, so that we know for sure when we are going to put this statute in place for us to have a situation whereby Kenyans are cushioned? view
• 20 Jul 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, only yesterday, a similar Question was asked to the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Local Government about Kerugoya Town. I remember the Deputy Prime Minister telling us that he is at an advanced stage of addressing not only the problem in Kerugoya, but in the rest of the country. Could the Minister confirm that, indeed, there are consultations which are taking place between the two Ministries so that we can get satisfied that yesterday, the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Local Government was not subjecting us to sweet talk? view
• 20 Jul 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, under the new Constitution, issues of integrity have become very important. In view of the altercation between the Head of the Public Service and the CIC, could the Prime Minister table the resolutions of those consultations, so that this Parliament can find out, or be informed, who between the two is saying the truth and who is not telling the truth, so that this Parliament can have the opportunity to now make up its mind whether to side with Mr. Muthaura or Mr. Nyachae, depending on who is telling the truth? view

• 20 Jul 2011 in National Assembly: It is on the same matter, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
• 20 Jul 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, as you make that consideration, allow me to draw you to Article 248 of the Constitution of Kenya. Sub-section 2 of this Article tells us clearly the commissions that are provided for under this Constitution. It is only these commissions for which legislation can be brought before this House. view
