• 5 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: So, I request the Ministry of Education to go slow on that policy and ensure that there is continuous registration of new schools to help in 100 per cent transition from primary to secondary. We are also calling upon the NG-CDF Board, which plays a critical role, to move with speed and approve the NG-CDF projects when they are brought before them. view
• 5 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: Another issue I want to mention is about the fund managers. They are the ones who have the authority to incur expenditure and some of them are not present for five days in the office. We have seen head teachers and principals complaining. So, we are requesting the NG-CDF Board to put a framework for performance management of these fund managers. This is because some of them do not report to office. So, in terms of issuance of cheques, the process is delayed. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this ... view
• 5 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: When you put into consideration the value of time whereby suppliers have supplied cement and sand and you stay for so long without paying them, some of them want to increase the cost. I have had a situation where when you purchase land and six months down the line money has not been paid, the owners feel that you must revalue that land and they increase the cost. So, it is important that we must work on time. Another issue I want to speak on is that the public should know that Members of Parliament are not involved in running ... view
• 5 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: I think it was around the 8th or 9th Parliaments when the law had just been introduced.

Right now, with the new Constitution, Members of Parliament, who are there to oversee the Government are also there to oversee the NG-CDF. When you look at the NG-CDF Act, there is a provision for an oversight committee. This oversight committee is dormant. As we allocate these funds, we should allocate them to oversight committees so that they can ... view
• 28 Feb 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. We know that to overturn Presidential Memorandum under Article 115 needs a two- thirds majority - something very difficult to attain. It is something that is impossible. I am just worried about the trend of His Excellency the President of legislating through the backdoor. He should also focus on some of the critical things, not small things like grammar which can be handled in a miscellaneous amendment so that we go to the substance when it comes to legislation. I support. view

• 28 Feb 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, ordinarily, you are supposed to ascertain the numbers. That has been the practice. view

• 28 Feb 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to register my disappointment on the Report on the Budget Policy Statement (BPS). Ordinarily, the PBS is supposed to highlight the priority programmes of the Government. His Excellency the President, Uhuru Muigai Kenyatta has been talking about the Big Four Agenda. When we examine the BPS, there is no linkage with the Big Four Agenda. We are view
