• 13 Jul 2010 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Just before you conclude, the Attorney-General wants to give the impression that your orders were limited only to the probe into the maize scandal. However, it also included the probe into the free primary education funds. So, could he also avail that report at the same time? view
• 13 Jul 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I also would like to send my condolences. My concern is this: The level of medical care in Uganda, compared to Kenya, is very much lower. What plans does the Government have to immediately airlift Ms. Mueni so that she can come to Nairobi and, if possible, try and assist the Ugandan medical fraternity to see how they can cope with the emergencies they have at the moment? Secondly, we say in medicine that when you discover pus somewhere in the body, you should always remain alert that there could be pus everywhere in the ... view
• 13 Jul 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I appreciate the emotions of Mr. Deputy Speaker. But, if it pleases him, I also come from a community that cuts across the borders. In the late 1970s, the Luhyas who were in Uganda crossed into Kakamega and we were able to live with it. This is a very important issue of security and I will leave it to the Minister of State for Provincial Administration and Internal Security to tell us whether there is an increase in the number of Somali nationals – not Somalis – in Nairobi and, specifically, in Eastleigh. If that ... view
• 13 Jul 2010 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. As you make that ruling, may I just jog your memory a little bit? Before the new Standing Orders, it was very normal for a Private Members’ Bill to be taken over by the Government. Under the new Standing Orders--- We had a Bill here last week; that is, the Animal Technicians Bill which was faced with the same challenge. The Minister, Dr. Kuti, wanted to take up the Bill in the same manner Dr. Wekesa wants to take up this one. I abundantly, support the idea where the Government ... view
• 13 Jul 2010 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I was not trying to contradict what the Member has said. I was saying that you give it sufficient thought so that under the new Standing Orders – and this is my proposal – when a Minister who has been overtaken by a Private Members’ Bill wants to attempt to take over, the House orders him to surrender that information to enrich the Private Members’ Bill so that it remains a Private Members’ Bill. view
• 30 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Minister has, in answering the previous Question and the current one, promised that the roads will be tarmacked as soon as design and survey are done. Can he tell us, as a policy, what he intend to do about those roads where they have already completed survey and design? He view
• 30 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: should also take that opportunity to comment on Sigalagala-Butere-Sidindi Road, for which these works have been done. view
• 30 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
• 30 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Listening to Prof. Saitoti, it is quite clear that the Government has tried everything possible to frustrate the original intention of my Question. You directed that the Report be tabled here. Until you vacate that position, the House should not allow Prof. Saitoti to enjoy the kind of privilege he is trying to advance. Secondly, because the Government has already acted by way of reinstating the suspended permanent secretaries, it means that the subsequent submission of that report to the Attorney-General following what transpired in this House is an afterthought. Therefore, the ... view
• 30 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I want to thank the Government for moving towards a common market for the East African Community. I would like the Minister to clarify the following. What is the preparedness of this country, especially along the borders, about the security implications of giving freedom of movement to persons? Secondly, what lessons have the partner states in the East African Community learnt from the experience in the EU where they have started experiencing problems with the monetary union? Does he think that this is something for which we need to be prepared in advance or it ... view
