• 28 Jan 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. I do not think it is in order for Mr. Kimunya to mislead this House by saying that the point of departure was the definition of "sale". In fact, what we demanded were the details of the transaction, at whatever point they were, but he completely refused to give us that information. That was very critical information.

• 27 Jan 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I also wish to join my colleagues in congratulating the Minister on a successful trip to the USA, but is it really in order for the Minister to mislead this House about having been able to access money from the World Bank? view

We have never had a problem with the Kenya Petroleum Refinery storage arrangement, because we have an independent surveyor who actually verifies. He is an independent external auditor.

Could the Minister assure this House that such an independent auditor ... view
• 22 Jan 2009 in National Assembly: Number 1(b), the collateral financial arrangement or agreement is between the KPC, supplier or importer and the financiers. Those are all the stakeholders in the collateral financial agreement. What measures is the Ministry of Energy putting in place to ensure that if there is a future collateral financial agreement, the Ministry gets directly involved and becomes the overall superintendent, to ensure that the KPC which falls under it, is doing what it is supposed to do?
