• 10 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: No, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
• 10 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Speaker, Sir. It is only fair that I bring to the attention of the Chair that yesterday when this Question was deferred, the Minister for Lands did not declare his interest in this matter. He had only informed you that they had agreed with the Assistant Minister to come and answer. view
• 10 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I say so, because the Minister for Lands was the lawyer for Courier Green. His advice to them is contrary to what the Assistant Minister has said here. So, is he in order, first to mislead the Chair on the reason why he was not able to answer the Question yesterday? Is he in order not to declare his interest in the matter? view
• 10 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: I stand guided, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
• 9 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the problem of birth certificates is a countrywide problem; it is not only restricted to the Nakuru Civil Registration Offices. What is the Government doing to ensure that people do not travel long distances to registration offices? Could the Government also consider using the Provincial Administration, through the chiefs, and in the process taking services to the people as opposed to the people going to seek for the services? view
• 9 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I had the opportunity to use this road on Saturday. When Kiambere Dam, Kamburu Dam, Gitaru Dam and Masinga Dam were being constructed, one of the conditions which was given by the donors was that the Government would ensure these roads are kept in very good state, so that accessibility and security of the dams is guaranteed. Between Kamburu Dam and Embu Town, there is no road. It is only huge sections of potholes. How soon will the Government consider this as a matter of emergency and allocate sufficient funds to ensure that this road is ... view
• 9 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. What Mr. Kiuna is saying is that the Assistant Minister has on many occasions stated here that the Ministry will do particular roads. A good example is the Kaseve-Masii Road. The Assistant Minister, in October, 2010 said that there was Kshs18 million to do that road. Up to today, no work has been done. Is the Assistant Minister in order to continue misleading the House about what the Ministry is going to do when he knows very well that they have a track record of not doing anything? view
• 9 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. It has taken eight years to tarmack the Machakos to Kitui Road. The Assistant Minister cannot tell us that it took that long because of procurement. The Question was asked here in October, 2010 and we are now in February, 2011 - We are talking of five months down the line. The Ministry requires only three months for procurement. Is he in order to insist that the Ministry’s inability to do some of the maintenance works is because of the process of procurement? view
• 8 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I just want to get an assurance from the Assistant Minister. Could he assure us that the people who get the tenders to supply the vehicles for leasing to the Government are just a few big multi-nationals or a few connected individuals? What measures does he have in place to ensure that the process benefits the common person who can lease a vehicle to the Government? view
• 8 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The Assistant Minister has, indeed, confirmed my fears. That policy is going to benefit a few rich individuals or companies. I want to give him a good example of a good policy by the Electoral Commission of Kenya (ECK). When the ECK leases vehicles, they lease per constituency. So, what I wanted to get from the Assistant Minister is an assurance that, that policy is going to benefit the common person. If there is somebody with a vehicle to lease in Yatta, for example, is he going to do so to the ... view
