• 13 Nov 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, is the Minister in order to mislead this House that Mrs. Mwatela has not been paid because she has written a letter which has got a bad tone, when we know that all Mrs. Mwatela wanted to find out was the interpretation of the Banking Act, specifically, Section 13B and Section 14(2)(3). With your indulgence, you could allow me--- view
• 13 Nov 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I do have the specifics. May I also confess that when you are a Member of Parliament, you are the secretary of people like Jacinta Mwatela. You are a slave of even cooks. You are anything in this country. It is important for the Minister to make it clear why he acted contrary to the Laws of Kenya. That lady had a reason to refuse to go away. She was waiting to be removed, if the President had appointed a tribunal, in accordance with the law. Are we being Parliament if we do not protect the ... view
• 13 Nov 2008 in National Assembly: asked the Minister of State for Provincial Administration and Internal Security:- (a) whether following the directive that banks hire armed police escort when transporting money, he could state the standardized rates for this service; (b) how much money has been realized by the Government from this service since 2003 to date; and, (c) whether he could explain how the money is normally appropriated. view
• 13 Nov 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the then Minister for State for Provincial Administration and Internal Security actually issued an Executive directive that all money-carrying vans will be accompanied by armed police officers. The Assistant Minister should be aware of that directive. Is he convinced that with the kind of money they are paying our young people to expose themselves to this kind of risk is enough? view
• 13 Nov 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for the information of the Assistant Minister, those police officers are paid between Kshs300 and Kshs500 and the balance of the money is paid at the District Commissioner's (DC's) office. Could he explain why the same DC at the end of the month submits Kshs40,000 to the police station? view
• 12 Nov 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we must, as Parliament, sympathise with those 753 police officers who lost their jobs. We know that many of those officers leave the police force after realising that they have no future. They realise that they are not going to progress to a higher level in the police force. So, they opt to be indisciplined and leave. What steps is the Assistant 3424 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES November 12, 2008 Minister taking to make sure that promotions in the police force are done purely on merit, and not because people are connected either financially or through lineage to ... view
• 12 Nov 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I come from that part of the world. Unless the improved standards the Assistant Minister is talking about took place the day before yesterday, I saw the messed up rooftops and air pollution over the weekend. Could I ask that, since the Assistant Minister is happy with that, whether he is willing to go and force Pan Paper Mills Company to compensate the owners of those homes by way of re-doing the roofs, now that he alleges that, from the day before yesterday, the necessary improvements have been done? view
• 12 Nov 2008 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is the Assistant Minister in order to say that, that pungent smell is a normal occurrence, when we actually know that in modern science of industrialization, those kinds of gases could be harvested so that the smell does not emerge? Is he in order to refuse to admit that they are not harvesting those gases and, instead, come and lie about temperature inversion? view
• 12 Nov 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, in part "b", the Assistant Minister told us that, as soon as the feasibility study and the detailed designs are complete, this road will be tarmacked. We have many other roads in the country where the feasibility studies and the detailed designs have been completed, for example the Sigalagala-Butere-Sidindi Road. What will the Assistant Minister do to start with such roads? view
• 12 Nov 2008 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I rise on this point of order to seek for a Ministerial Statement from the Minister of State for Planning, National Development and Vision 2030. This is in respect to the collections of revenue by the Government in the financial year 2007/2008. The Minister should make the following clarifications:- (i) How much money did the Government realise as the total revenue collection from the financial year 2007/2008? (ii) By how many billions of Kenya shillings did this amount surpass the projected revenue collections for that year? (iii) Consequently, when is the ... view
