• 25 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I also rise to support the Bill. view
• 25 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: This is a good document. However, I want to comment on Part II about the headquarters and the offices. They said the headquarters shall be in Nairobi and the Service may establish branches at any place in Kenya to ensure reasonable access. view
• 25 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I think the issue of registration is very serious and important to the citizens of this country. I would be proposing that other than just being left open that they “may”, we should say the Service, “shall” establish branches at the lowest level of locations. If you heard right, the deaths registration is done even by the sub-chiefs. I do not see any good reason as to why we cannot take the same service, even the registration of persons and birth down to that level. Most Kenyans have suffered for a long time trying to look ... view
• 25 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: With those very few words, I beg to support. view
• 25 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I rise to support the Bill. I think it is a good piece of work. However, there are various issues which have been raised and which have been of concern to me. First and foremost, I am finding the country getting into a situation of over-borrowing because if we get all the counties coming with their requests, we could get to a situation where so much has been borrowed and being guaranteed by the Government. In case something goes wrong, the whole burden will go to the national Government and all Kenyans will ... view
• 24 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, very many Kenyans have been dying in police custody. People living around Kiambu are living in fear because of a lot of intimidation from the police officers around that place. Could the Assistant Minister inform the House what action he is taking to make sure that the police officers in Kiambu do not intimidate view
• 24 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Is the Assistant Minister in order to imply that the deceased was a criminal, and that was why he was beaten by the police in that place? view
• 24 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I also stand to support the Procedural Motion but with a few reservations. As the other hon. Members who have commented on this Motion stated, it is rather sad that the Executive has had these Bills for almost one year. Kenyans are wondering why it had to take that long for these Bills to be brought to the House. Mr. Speaker, Sir, you will recall that yesterday, newspapers said that the ball was in the court of Members of Parliament, and that in case anything went wrong, Members of Parliament would be responsible. We wish that some ... view
• 24 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to support the Bill and comment on a few issues. Registration of persons should be an ongoing exercise. It should preferably even be introduced to schools before students exit school in Form Four. Some children attain the age of 18 while in Form Four. Registration of voters should also be continuous and, preferably, be done electronically to avoid double registration of voters. Continuous voter registration should be effected immediately. Voter education should also be undertaken immediately because most of the people do not know what they should be voting for. Lastly, the campaign ... view
• 24 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I also stand to support this Motion. I would like to just mention a few issues. I think the Industrial Court that has been in existence has been taking too long to dispose of cases. I think through the Bill, as we go along, we will need to look at ways of increasing the number of magistrates who will be sitting in that court so that cases can be disposed of quickly. With regard to issues of arbitration on labour disputes, it is very disturbing because most of them take very long, maybe, ... view
