• 11 Oct 2023 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I do not know why the microphones are not working today. view
• 11 Oct 2023 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Just on a point of order under Standing Order No.1. The Cabinet Secretary for Youth Affairs, Sports and the Arts did write a letter on 21st August, 2023, to the Speaker of the National Assembly and the Speaker of the Senate. In that letter, he indicated that he wanted to ask us to answer the questions made by the National Assembly Majority Leader, Hon. Ichung’wah, and of course, he did badly by mispelling my name, “Hon Simon Cherarakey” I do not know who that is, but let me assume it is me. It should be ... view
• 11 Oct 2023 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for that guidance. I rise to ask Question No.053 to the Cabinet Secretary of Youth Affairs and Sports. (a) Could the Cabinet Secretary provide information on the facilitation of Team Kenya's participation in the World Athletics Championship in Budapest, particularly by the Sports, Arts and Social Development Fund, disclosing details of sponsorship agreements, athletes’ selection and amounts expended in the purchase of uniforms and air tickets and paid as allowances and rewards to each participant? (b) Could the Cabinet Secretary provide the details of the financial management, including the book of accounts for grants ... view
• 11 Oct 2023 in Senate: The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Director, Hansard Services,Senate. view
• 11 Oct 2023 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. Mine is very brief because I have one Question which I will ask later. We have an annexure for a paid air ticket to Budapest, Hungary. It is an economy class ticket amounting to Kshs850,650. Cabinet Secretary, is it wise for people like Faith, Simiyu and Daniel to use economy class while yourself and the Principal Secretary use business class? The athletes should be on business class and your team in economy class because they are going to work and not relax. Cabinet Secretary, our athletes should get enough leg room while travelling. On ... view
• 11 Oct 2023 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. Mine is to support the Social Health Insurance Fund Bill (National Assembly Bills No. 58 of 2023). This Bill is one of the enablers of UHC which includes the discussion we have just had. I am happy because this Bill gives each and every Kenyan the opportunity to receive insurance cover. For very long, insurance cover has been the privilege of the chosen few, but every Kenyan born at the commencement of this Bill will have the opportunity to be registered and be part of the medical insurance cover. Every farmer is one illness away ... view

• 11 Oct 2023 in Senate: cancer. Whenever you go for funerals and harambees of cancer victims and other illnesses, the clarion call by wananchi, the ordinary Wanjiku is to ask what the insurance fund is doing to insure Kenyans. Treating cancer and other chronic diseases is very expensive. You lose life and property and the family goes back to poverty. I support the issue of chronic and critical illnesses fund and it will assist in curing such. I hope we can invest in research in this Fund because some regions have high cancer cases. I also agree that some employers have been doing statutory deductions ... view
• 11 Oct 2023 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, protect me from Sen. Abass. My point of order is pursuant to Standing Order No. 105. Is it in order for the Senator for Nairobi and my senior brother Sen. Edwin Sifuna to indicate that this is a shareholding country yet it is a sovereign entity. Should he cast aspersions and creating jitters about the transition period under National Health Insurance Fund (NHIF)? view
• 11 Oct 2023 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, Sen. Sifuna is a practitioner of law. Kenya is not a private shareholding company. You can state those words in public rallies and funerals. This is a House of record and the President said in Siaya County that every Kenyan will be served by Government regardless of how they voted. Is it in order for Sen. Sifuna to bring statements made in baby showers and funerals to the Floor of the House? view
