• 20 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: THAT, aware of our ethnic, cultural and religious diversity as recognised by the Constitution; further aware that Article 27(4) of the Constitution provides that the State shall not discriminate directly or indirectly against any person on any ground, including religion; noting that Article 32 of the Constitution provides that every person has the right to freedom of religion; cognisant of the fact that the rights and freedoms under Articles 27 and 32 of the Constitution are not absolute but are rights and freedoms that can be limited; concerned that the country has been experiencing a proliferation and emergence of cults ... view
• 21 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, I rise to ask the Attorney- General the following Question: (a) When will the Government resolve the dispute between Kenya and Uganda on Migingo Island, including instituting legal proceedings before the East African Court of Justice? (b) What steps is the Government taking to delineate Kenya’s territorial boundaries? view
• 21 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this very important Bill. Being a Private Member’s Bill, I wish to congratulate Hon. Njagagua for the research that he has done on the Bill. I also wish to congratulate Hon. Njagagua for the time he has taken on researching material for this Bill. With a lot of respect, it is fairly dishonest for any Member to try and discourage the effort of a Private Member. It is also important that whoever stands opposed to this Bill takes opportunity to read the memorandum accompanying it. I have gone through and perused ... view
• 21 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: It demonstrates a major shift towards achieving a welfare society. It will also try to wade off discrimination because our brothers and sisters who work in the public service feel discriminated. Equally, the Bill is geared towards building capital that is essential for our development and Big Four Agenda. It is a bit fallacious to hear a Member saying that there are some cartels trying to get this capital. If you go through the Bill, you will see that the money is well audited. Provision for audit is there and for running the scheme and there are also tribunals. view
• 21 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: With those few remarks, I support. view
• 20 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I want to raise a point of order under Article 255 of the Constitution. I am sure you are aware. You have observed that this amendment intrudes on the sovereignty of the people spelt out under Article 1. The sovereignty of the people is exercisable by Parliament through their representatives. This is a trust. Mutating the composition of Parliament has to be through a referendum as provided for under Article 255. It is one of the matters that are stipulated as requiring a referendum under Article 255 (1) of the Constitution. I have looked through the ... view
• 20 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: My point of order is that the Bill is unconstitutional. This Bill as it is, without a reference made to a referendum is unconstitutional. It cannot move as it is. view
• 20 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you. That does not mean that there will be a lacuna because any aggrieved party can go to the Attorney-General and seek an advisory opinion on what happens when you do not implement the one-third gender rule. view
• 4 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: (Technical hitch) We have been ridiculed by other people. My other area of concern is tourism, which the Seconder has mentioned. In a country like Japan, we have no tourist officers. We have a college that trains tourist officers, that The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 4 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: is, Kenya Utalii College. It is ridiculous for us to be told that in many stations in Canada, Japan and elsewhere there are no tourist officers. The other concern I have is the large entourage that accompanies our dignitaries when they travel. I checked the last time when our delegation went to the United Nations Headquarters and found out it was a whole planeload of people. I would call them joyriders. It is a matter of concern and I would like to compare our country with a clip I saw this morning on Swiss Confederation. The President of that country, ... view
