• 1 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: asked the Minister for Health:- (a) how many nurses have been recruited by the Government since 2006; (b) whether she could table the number of nurses posted per district and constituency to date; (c) whether she is aware that many dispensaries built through the Constituencies Development Fund (CDF) are not operational due to lack of medical staff; and, (d) whether she is further aware that many operational dispensaries do not have laboratory technicians. view
• 1 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, it is okay. view
• 25 Jul 2007 in National Assembly: asked the Minister for Lands:- (a) whether he is aware that the Estate Agents' Registration Board has not been operational over the last one year and a half; (b) whether he is further aware that this has encouraged non-genuine estate agents to fleece the public of millions of shillings; (c) whether he is also aware that lack of a board has curtailed professional growth since no new estate agents have been registered since 2005; and, (d) when he will appoint the board. view
• 25 Jul 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am surprised, because in part "a" of the Question, the Assistant Minister has been aware that, since 2005, there has been no board in place. In part "b" of the Question, he is not aware that most people have been fleeced by quack agents. In part "c" of the Question, the Assistant Minister says that he is not aware that the lack of a board has curtailed the profession's growth. I understand that Ministers have signed performance contracts. Why does it take two years just to appoint a board? Why is it taking that long? view
• 25 Jul 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am glad that the Assistant Minister was very frank. Does it mean that the Attorney-General, for two years, could not fulfil his duty to just nominate one name? view
• 24 Jul 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I think we should help the Minister in her work. She should not have asked the judges why the function was cancelled. She actually should be telling the judges why the swearing-in ceremony was cancelled. The issue here is actually with the Executive. So, would I be in order to ask the Chair to defer this Question, for the Minister to go back and ask the Executive to explain why the swearing-in ceremony was cancelled? We have no quarrel with the judges, indeed! view
• 18 Jul 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, fortunately, dogs do not have a problem with breeding. Obviously, my colleague, Mr. Lesrima is in desperate need of dogs. Could I suggest to the Assistant Minister to give a male and female dog for purposes of breeding at Maralal? view
• 18 Jul 2007 in National Assembly: asked the Minister of State for Defence:- (a) how many Kenyan soldiers serving under United Nations (UN) peace- keeping missions have been affected by Lou Gehrig's disease (ALS); (b) whether he is aware that Kenyan soldiers are poorly protected against effects of war such as radiation; (c) what the Government is doing to ensure that Kenyan soldiers serving in UN peace-keeping missions are safe; and, (d) what compensation from the UN is available for the affected soldiers. view
• 18 Jul 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, radiation can take a long time to detect in a soldier who has been in a war zone. Our troops, who were sent to the war zone in Eritrea/Ethiopia were basically not equipped apart from having a G3 and uniform. During the first mission that they went there, they were basically not equipped to deal with hazards of radiation. What action is the Government taking to ensure that our soldiers are properly equipped? view
• 18 Jul 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like to know whether the Government has done any medical research or study on all soldiers who have served under the UN in war zone areas to determine whether they have a common or peculiar problem as a result of the effects of war in those areas. view
