• 3 Dec 2009 in National Assembly: (a) why the procurement of the Enterprise Resource Planning System (ERPS) at a cost of Kshs135 million by the Kenya Medical Supplies Agency (KEMSA) through tender No.KICT/KEMSA/2008-2009 was done through the Kenya ICT Board instead of KEMSA or the Ministry’s established procurement framework; view
• 3 Dec 2009 in National Assembly: (b) to provide details of the members of the tender evaluation committee, including their names, employer and their relevant competence as far as this job is concerned; and, view
• 3 Dec 2009 in National Assembly: (c) whether he could also table a copy of the signed evaluation reports, the tender opening documents and the tender award notification. view
• 3 Dec 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, first of all, the minutes that Prof. Anyang’-Nyong’o, tabled are not signed. The valuation report has got 67 pages, but only 45 pages were tabled. He left out the technical and financial evaluation. So, the answer from the Minister for Medical Services is not satisfactory. Nevertheless, on the issue of the transfer of the procurement to the ICT Board, the Assistant Minister for Finance has not shown how Kenya Medical Supplies Agency (KEMSA) lacked the capacity to procure. That is because as far as we know, KEMSA is empowered to procure medical services for this country ... view
• 3 Dec 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is the Assistant Minister in order to mislead the House that the reason why he is here is to answer about the transfer when, in fact, the reason why the Speaker ordered this Question to be referred to the Ministry of Finance is because the Minister for Medical Services said he could answer why the amount was increased from Kshs110 million to Kshs135 million? The HANSARD can bear me witness. view
• 3 Dec 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, yes, I am an accountant and a member of ICPAK and not only that. I was a director of finance--- So, at least, I know about the procurement conditions. view
• 3 Dec 2009 in National Assembly: But, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, if the Assistant Minister looks at the document which was tabled here, the evaluation report, from Page 1 to 35, it says: “Whoever is quoting should include the recurrent costs.” In fact, the Chair has got it right all through. You asked him the Assistant Minister: “How can one tender for something and in between, you start bringing in other components?” That is not possible under the procurement rules. So, that is the question the Assistant Minister is avoiding to answer and that is the reason why the Minister for Medical Services could not answer ... view
• 3 Dec 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I think you have to help us on this matter. This matter came before the Floor of this House in May this year and we have been going round and round with it. If what the Assistant Minister is saying is true, then that should have been a separate contract advertised and tendered separately. But however, he still has not been able to table the documents as requested by hon. Khalwale. What is it that he says that is recurrent cost? Let him show us so that we can understand. I think he was also informed ... view
• 2 Dec 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, let me join my colleagues in congratulating the hon. Prime Minister for the speech he has made. view
• 2 Dec 2009 in National Assembly: Hon. Shabesh asked a question on the Kazi Kwa Vijana Progamme. To the best of my collection, the amount of money allocated to this progamme is almost equal to the amount we get as Members of Parliament for CDF every year. The CDF projects, despite the fact that the budget has been 2.5 per cent, are more visible on the ground than projects sponsored by the Central Government with a budget of 97.5 per cent. Why has the Government not decided to channel the Kazi Kwa Vijana Programme money through CDF fund, so that everything is handled through the CDF ... view
