• 19 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I will refer very clearly to what they are saying. There is no dispute between--- view
• 19 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I was saying there is no dispute between the TSC, the Ministry of Education and the KNUT in as far as this matter is concerned. When will these trained A-level teachers be considered in the same level as their counterparts who went only for a two-week induction course? view
• 19 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the untrained A- level teachers never went through this course which he is referring to - teachers proficiency course - yet they were promoted. The Assistant Minister is wrong to say they are only few. Today, we are talking about 7,000 teachers. The promotion which he read through here, did not include these trained A- level teachers who are slightly over 7,000. Why did he find it fit to promote untrained A-level teachers and leave out properly trained A-level P1 teachers? view
• 19 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. view
• 19 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I personally went to see the Speaker in the company of Ms. Odhiambo and Mr. Olago. The advice of the Speaker was that we go name by name, and if we are not satisfied, then we delete a particular name, but your ruling is contradictory. In my Motion, I had requested that this matter be referred back to the Committee. Secondly, I do not find it in order for this House to be converted into a recruitment agency. That should be done by the Committee. view
• 19 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. We all remember where this country came from early last year. It was because of the Electoral Commission of Kenya (ECK) then. Today, we are pushing to pass names of an Interim Election Commission (IEC) when there is no consensus. Therefore, in accordance to the provisions of Standing Order No.21, I beg to move that the debate be now adjourned for the sake of allowing the same Committee to go back and agree, so that it can bring the names here for the House to approve. view
• 18 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, although I have not received the written answer, I beg to ask the Minister for Education the following Question by Private Notice. view
• 18 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: (a) Why has the Government delayed promotions of the over 7,000 trained A-level holder P1 teachers in the teaching service? view
• 18 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: (b) Could the Minister also explain why untrained A-level teachers, who underwent a two- weeks induction course in 1996 to be promoted to S1 status have continuously been promoted while trained A-level holder P1 teachers have been ignored? view
• 18 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: (c) What measures is the Minister taking to correct this anomaly? view
