• 4 Dec 2024 in Senate: Madam Temporary Chairperson, I agree with the--- view
• 4 Dec 2024 in Senate: Why is Sen. Eddy irritated in the morning? I concur with the Committee's mediation that the counties get Kshs387, 425,000,000. Last year, the counties got Kshs385,424,616,062 so we have added almost Kshs2 billion to counties. That should be clear because many people are saying that the allocation to counties has been reduced. It is not true. We have increased it by about Kshs2 billion from last financial year’s allocation from Kshs385,424,616,062 to Kshs387, 425,000,000. I can see that in the proposed Presidential Memorandum, Nandi County was going to get Kshs7.1 billion. However, after mediation of both the National Assembly and ... view

• 4 Dec 2024 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Chairperson. view
• 4 Dec 2024 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Chairman, Sir, I can see the Chair did not pass through the Long Title on Clause 2. You went straight to Clause 3 and 7. view
• 4 Dec 2024 in Senate: Yes. view
• 4 Dec 2024 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Chairperson, Sir, I want to make two comments on this proposal. First; the Senate is supersonic in agreeing with the National Assembly Amendments. The National Assembly should also extend the same goodwill. On many occasions, we have made amendments to a number of legislations but the National Assembly sabotages them. You can even see the condescending attitude of the National Assembly leadership. In the same spirit, the Senate has extended and worked quickly on this Cotton Industry Development Bill (Senate Bill No. 5 of 2023). I could not believe that there are 55 amended Clauses from the National ... view
• 4 Dec 2024 in Senate: want to tell the National Assembly they should extend good faith the way we did with their 55 amended Clauses to the Cotton Bill. Secondly, I want to agree with Clause No.2, where the interpretation and the meaning of the cotton industry, processing, ginning, cotton plant, collection centres and spinning are now cotton industries. The definition should be broad so that it can agree with growers, ginners, spinners, cotton value addition, and marketers. In conclusion, Elgeyo-Marakwet and Kisumu Counties and part of Nyanza grow cotton because they have black cotton soil. Rivatex East Africa Limited was given more than Kshs4 ... view
• 4 Dec 2024 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I beg to report progress that the Committee of the whole has considered the County Allocation of Revenue Bill (Senate Bills No.25 of 2024), and seek leave to sit again tomorrow. view
