• 23 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, in this particular matter of Ken-Ren Chemicals and Fertilizers Company Ltd, with regard to the Government guarantee that was made; one of the claimants was a company called “Voest Limited”, which went to court and was granted the value of US$3 million as a refund that was due, due to the guarantee that was made and this company not being able to deliver. It is shocking to note that even after the Government of Kenya got that award from court, it failed to collect it. view
• 23 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: The Public Accounts Committee (PAC) Report on the Accounts of the Government of Kenya for Financial Year 2006/2007, which I have here, was laid on the Table of this House a couple of years ago.

• 16 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I rise to support this Motion. It is very important for us to recognize the achievements of our sportsmen and sportswomen and the fame they have brought to our country over the years. The Mover of this Motion has given it enough thought. When you look around the country, you remember famous athletes like Henry Rono and Nyantika Mayoro who are now experiencing poverty. Some of them, have passed away because of lack of care. Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, as I support the Motion, I would like us to take into account that this Fund is ... view

• 9 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, as much as the Minister does not want to pursue the issue that came out about stigmatization, has she given proper clarification because some of us who were with her in Mombasa understood the context in which she made the statement and supported her statement? Some of us are ready to support her on that statement that she was seeking for guidance and not stigmatizing anybody with HIV/AIDS. Would she like us to support her on that? view
• 3 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Is the Assistant Minister in order to mislead the House by saying that there was a revolving fund and at the same time state that the money was sent back to Treasury knowing very well that a revolving fund revolves within itself? You do not have any money coming out of such a fund except for the intended purpose, which in this case was fertilizer financing and purchasing. view
• 2 Feb 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. Members of the Government including the Leader of Government Business attended the House Business Committee when this Motion was approved. It has been a very frequent occurrence that the Government is not taking seriously the House business that is on the Order Paper. I do not know whether I will be in order to request you to issue a reprimand to the Government because that Committee is largely composed of Government Ministers who do not communicate with their colleagues in order to be able to respond to such an important ... view
• 1 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to second this Motion and agree with the sentiments of our Chairman, hon. Dr. Khalwale, on the matters he has put forward before this House. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I wish to add a few observations. One of the problems with regard to this Committee is obtaining on time Treasury Memoranda. This is an issue which has been raised over many years, but action on it has been wanting over all those years. The next issue which I want to bring to the attention of the House is about imprests. The issue ... view
