• 26 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I have noted your concern. I think these are crucial amendments to avoid very queer rules and regulations which might ambush Members. We have all seen a requirement which says that they might require a report from the National Security Intelligence Service (NSIS). If a report from NSIS will be required, hon. Khalwale who is against the Government will never get any recommendation from NSIS, not to mention hon. Mbadi and even myself. So, I think it is important we have approval of the House. view
• 26 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I was hoping that this House would benefit from the many lawyers who are here, including the Minister. I am told that somewhere within the law, when a right has been conferred to you, it cannot be denied to you later. So, we would really have benefitted from the lawyers we have in this House. view
• 26 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. As a Member of the CFC dealing with matters of the CDF in Parliament, I can only have one word for Agnes Odhiambo; she is as good as they come. I support the Motion. view
• 25 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, because of time and the fact that we can decide and make the rules ourselves here, can I propose that where amendments automatically affect another clause, we do not necessarily have to do it in writing as is being done? For example, if you delete a particular clause, automatically, there have to be amendments on the numbering of the clauses. So, where it is consequential, we do not have to insist. Again, because of time, we do not have to insist on writing. view
• 25 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I just want to know whether what is in the Order Paper is the amendment by the Minister or by the Committee. view
• 25 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, that is what I am asking. Whose amendment is it? view
• 25 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I am getting there. What the Minister has proposed is not what is on the Order Paper. That is why I am asking whose amendment it is. Is it the Committee’s amendment or the Minister’s amendment? He has included only one part. Under Clause 36(1), the words “subject to subsection 4” are also deleted. Could we have a confirmation from the Minister? view
• 25 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, it appears that our Chairman has changed position, because that particular Clause is providing for the vetting of all members of staff whereas the amendment, as it is, provides for only two officers to be vetted. So, I would like this clarified. view
• 25 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I am of a different view. We must agree on which caliber or level of management because we are talking about the entire staff. It is not just everybody. I would have suggested that we go by the amendment of the Committee which does not include everybody. We are talking about transfer of the staff of the KACC. Do you want to vet all the staff? view
• 25 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Even the messenger? view
