Thank you hon. Speaker, Sir. It was a point of order when the Leader of Majority Party was speaking. But now that you have given me the chance, I seek your guidance in reference to the letter that Mr. Kinyua had written. If you look the contract of M/s Erad Supplies and General Contracts Limited, it had been signed on 26th August, 2004. When you look at Mr. Kinyua’s letter, it brought advice after the contract had already been signed. So, is it in order for the Leader of Majority Party to mislead this House and the public at large ...

Thank you very much, hon. Speaker, Sir. I am a member of that Committee and I rise to oppose. I want to oppose with reasons because I am part and parcel of the Committee. When we wrote this report, we went through it and we were meant to have another session to clear some of the inconsistencies that were there. I want to highlight some of the inconsistencies that are in the report. A good report, after looking at the observations and the methodology, there must be a logical flow.

Hon. Speaker, Sir, I have just gotten my Standing Orders and looking at Standing Order No.199(5), it says: “A report having been adopted by a majority of members, a minority or dissenting report may be appended to the report by any member(s) of the Committee.” So, I am rising to ask: Why was my dissent not here? This is because I did not support this and I made it very clear. That is why I am saying The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the ...

Hon. Speaker, Sir, when you look at the date that the Chairman has signed, it is on 16th October. These are some of the inconsistencies which are there and which I want to point out. There is so much to be told about this report and if you give me a few minutes I am going to demonstrate this. Hon. Speaker, Sir, I raised the issue. There is no way you can go to Mombasa to do report writing. When you look at that page, it is saying: “Report Writing Retreat.” People were signing because they are present to do ...

Thank you, hon. Speaker. I do not fear to be named and the truth shall set me free. Why the Chairman has decided to sit next to me--- When I had gone to the gents, he followed me there to convince me to support this report. I told him that I was going to oppose the report.
