• 5 Sep 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I just wanted to ask a question but, apparently, the Minister has already answered. I wanted to request him to sympathetically address the matter of Mr. Ali, being a respected man in Kenya, and particularly in the North Eastern region. view
• 5 Sep 2012 in National Assembly: asked the Minister for Public Health and Sanitation:- (a) whether she is aware that the Government does not have a scheme of service to engage, recognize and appreciate the work performed by Community Health Workers(CHWs) in the provision of basic health care at the grassroots countrywide and, why this is so. (b) whether she could consider developing a scheme that would remunerate and recognize their work just like for other health workers in the Public Service?

• 5 Sep 2012 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, the gracious lady - the Minister - has tried to address this subject but not quite thoroughly as I expected of her. Those are volunteers who are doing a commendable job all over the country.

• 4 Sep 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, much as the Assistant Minister is telling us that the information will only be used by IEBC, can he give us an assurance by way of giving what penalties are there for any person misusing his or her authority and giving out the information?

• 4 Sep 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to go on record in supporting this Report. I say so not because hon. Khalwale is my friend. This is not a Report of hon. Khalwale. It is a report of the PAC. In the last Parliament, I actively participated in the PAC for five years and we even did the report on Anglo Leasing and tabled it before the House. Our recommendations were not looked into and now the Government is paying for that. The other day, they were in Mombasa receiving a ship and they have paid for that. Those are ... view
• 4 Sep 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I was saying that the former Minister for Finance, hon. Mwiraria, instead of extending the contract for a period of ten years, he recommended for competitive tendering process.
