• 4 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, obviously, I will need more time as the Minister has said. That is because the issue of poaching, especially of ivory on elephants is a very serious matter. I would like to request that the Question be deferred to next week. view
• 4 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I need time to look at the documents. I would have preferred if this Question could be deferred to next week on Thursday? view
• 4 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the document talks about companies and I need to know who are the directors of those companies. Who are the people behind the companies? Those are the real poachers. I do not want to know just the names. view
• 4 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am saying that some documents have been tabled. I need to look at them. Since there is no time now, I am requesting that the Question be deferred to next week on Tuesday. view
• 4 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I did not have an opportunity. The documents have just been laid on the Table. They will first get to you before I can have a look at them. view
• 4 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I wish to second the particular amendment seeking to compel the Treasury to reimburse the hospitals their mortuary expenses. When we lose our loved ones, we have to know that the facilities where their bodies are preserved are well maintained. Therefore, it is only fair that the central Government, through the Treasury, does reimburse the hospitals the mortuary expenses they incur. With those remarks, I beg to second the amendment. view
• 3 May 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
• 3 May 2011 in National Assembly: asked the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance:- (a) what became of the approximately Kshs5 billion held by the Central Bank of Kenya and other commercial banks in “frozen” accounts belonging to “pyramid schemes”; (b) when the “pyramid scheme” victims will be refunded their money; and, (c) why the Government has failed to institute criminal proceedings against the directors/proprietors/officials of the schemes. view
• 3 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, you will agree with me that this matter has been here for long. I personally spoke with the Personal Assistant to the Minster himself, and we agreed that this matter can be handled by any other Minister, because it is only a matter of tabling documents. So, I am now looking for the chair’s protection. This is a deliberate move by the Government to refuse to address the issue of “pyramid schemes”, because tabling documents does not need to be by the Minister. It can be done by anybody in the Government. view
• 28 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, Yatta and Masinga have been very close to the dam. When electricity was connected, it by-passed those two centres. When water was brought, Matuu and Masinga were not beneficiaries. We appreciate the role that the Ministry is playing for the big projects which are in the pipeline. But since we are going through a very dry spell and drought, what urgent measures has the Minister taken to ensure that boreholes are sunk in the two areas? view
