• 17 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I stand to second the Procedural Motion to reduce the dates on this important Bill. That money is long overdue. We have been waiting for that money for a long time. Being on the homestretch, we need that money as fast as possible. I do not see why Members should oppose this Procedural Motion because it will enable us to move fast and get this money to our constituencies and complete the development projects which have been there. I second. view
• 11 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, thank you for giving me this opportunity to contribute. I support the deletion of the words “infringe on the” and substituting it with “substantially prejudice the”. It will make the Bill stronger. I support the amendment. view
• 11 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me the opportunity to be the first one to second the Civil Aviation (Amendment) Bill. At the outset, I want to say that this Bill has come a bit late. It is quite timely because these are the laws which are giving the previous Bill the strength to cope with the current changing times. Laws have changed and things change at the same time. We have to move in tandem with the same. Air travel has become quite complex. It has expanded very much. view
• 11 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, when I was interrupted by my brother, Hon. Gikaria, I was saying that air travel has become one of the most efficient modes of transport. It is used a lot by the people. Many people prefer to travel by air because it saves time and other complexities of the current world. Therefore, you find that the traffic in our airports is expanding by the day. This law will give us more room to expand and open up new routes or areas, so that we can, at least, catch up with the current mode of transport. These ... view
• 11 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, as the Mover was saying, some air travel agents or some aircraft operators have gone to the extent of running their businesses like matatus or the vehicles we have on the roads. Sometimes, people lose their luggage in those aircrafts and are delayed without any apparent reason. This is the case and yet there is no apology or compensation. Sometimes people are mishandled by the staff. With these new rules, we will need to put more professionalism in the operations of aircraft. The opening of new routes, and additional direct routes, is also a very important ... view
• 11 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: I appeal to the new management, or whoever will be running our air travel, to open more domestic destinations. We have very few airstrips or airports in our country whereas people are travelling by air a lot. We do not have an airstrip in Meru. The nearest air travel facility, which is almost complete, is in Isiolo. We take four or five hours to get to Meru by road. Once the airstrip is opened, it will be a matter of being at home after 30 minutes and then being in Nairobi after 30 minutes to transact business in this august ... view
• 11 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: more new routes and destinations, we should look at the domestic market because it is also very important. view
• 11 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: With those few remarks, I support the Bill. view
• 9 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me the opportunity to contribute to this Bill. From the outset, I want to say that the amendments herein are intended to give more teeth to the FRC by having a stronger board with more powers. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 9 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Despite the fact that this Bill has been there and has been weak in its own way, we have failed to control money laundering, betting and lotteries that have made our country poorer. We will go out of our way to approve these amendments, but what remains is for the people of Kenya to have integrity and morals which are beyond reproach for us to achieve this. We have enacted so many laws in this country which can only be implemented by us. If we are not going to live to the expectations of the laws, our efforts will be ... view
