• 2 Jun 2021 in Senate: amount. The courts should use their discretion during the assessment. The decision should be on case-by-case basis. We can make the amendments during the Committee of the Whole so as not to restrict the courts. This is because we may never know the extent of the damage. On the issue of permanent disability, I think that Kshs3 million is a little bit too low and we should once again leave it open for the courts to make a ruling based on the case. We can just give the minimum as Kshs5 million then give room for the courts to make ... view
• 2 Jun 2021 in Senate: On the issue of compensation, I agree that the community should be given 10 per cent and not five per cent. In the Mining Act, we do have 10, 20 and 70 per cent allocated. Let us use 10 per cent on the communities for them to also benefit. This is a timely amendment, and we look forward to it being passed. In the future, we need to discuss real issues. I have seen my colleagues asking for Inter-Parties Parliamentary Group (IPPG) on Building Bridges Initiative. Instead of doing that, they should allow the courts to do their work. Let ... view
• 2 Jun 2021 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I want to commend the Committee on Finance and Budget led by Sen. Kibiru. This is one of the critical roles that we have to play as a Senate. I commend colleagues who thought it wise that we needed to extend the Sitting so that all of us could have--- view
• 2 Jun 2021 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, in my opinion, you should also have an opportunity to share your thoughts and views because this is one of the key mandates we have been given as Sen.

• 2 Jun 2021 in Senate: The rigorous process of agreeing on Articles 203, 218 and 119 on the Revenue Sharing Formula took us many months. It went through pain, suffering and anguish. Most view

• 2 Jun 2021 in Senate: of our colleagues shudder when they hear of that experience. I am happy we ended well with an extra Kshs53 billion. It is worth noting that in the previous financial year which is the year under review, we had Kshs316 billion. It is significant that we moved that with an extra Ksh53billion and we are now moving to Ksh370billion. Samburu was among the counties that were likely to lose but at least every county will gain. I have read the committee report and I am happy they have noted quite a number of issues regarding ceilings, staff, autonomy for the ... view

• 2 Jun 2021 in Senate: giving orders that impede or violate the law. The question should be, if a Kenyan goes to court and says National Treasury has violated Article 219 of the Constitution--- Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, when the national Government borrows, they do not seek the consent of the counties yet the counties should have a say in the entire process of borrowing. If a good citizen moves to court and challenges the National Treasury for violating Article 219--- It is very sad that we have to discuss this at this time. The National Treasury should always consult us when borrowing to finance ... view
