• 18 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I also want to support this amendment. We had a lengthy debate on the Bill yesterday and we thought that it must be amended. As it was alluded to by many hon. Members, especially those from the Tenth Parliament, I feel that we should have given it more time. However, because the Cabinet Secretary had said that he or she will do it in six months, let us wait. We will also look at it since the Tenth Parliament managed to remove livestock from this Bill. I do not see how fisheries can ... view
• 18 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you for your protection, hon. Temporary Speaker, Sir. There are those crops that are grown in large areas and those that are grown in marginal areas. There are some which do not have a big market. At the end of the day, they are forgotten. Pyrethrum and sisal are among the dying industries, which cannot be compared with tea and coffee, which are very vibrant. As I said, in the process, once this amendment is done, we are going to incorporate view

• 17 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker, for giving me the opportunity to support this Procedural Motion. I support the extension. Hon. Speaker, agriculture is the mainstay of our economy in terms of feeding our people and the commodities that we export. After listening to the hon. Members who spoke earlier, especially those who happened to be around during the 10th Parliament, I am convinced that the Bill that resulted in this Act was passed haphazardly. In fact, the Leader of Majority Party, hon. Duale, put it clearly that it was passed during the wee hours of the night, when most of the ... view
• 17 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I am sure that those are the words of our colleagues who sat in the 10th Parliament. They are not my words. view
• 16 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, Sir, I rise to oppose this Motion. This is a very weighty Motion and we should not rush over it. Those who are married are married and those who want to marry can go ahead until we discuss this Motion and finalize it. This view
• 16 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, Sir, I rise to support the Motion and congratulate hon. Njomo for this timely Motion. I urge this House to support the same. view
• 16 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: We train but we do not get the products of our training. Most of the people who are trained are released to the market, which is not lacking. Whenever the graduates go to look for jobs, they find signs that read “ Hakuna kazi”. They wonder what to do and at the end of the day they resort to drug abuse and other anti-social behaviour. The Government should ensure that when these youngsters are released to the service industry, there is some focus on where they will go. If the industries that could absorb them are not enough, there should ... view
• 16 Jul 2013 in National Assembly: For example, we have the Catering and Tourism Levy which is charged by every hotel in this country. This money is collected and those who do not remit it are prosecuted. We wonder where this money goes. If this money was utilized well, it could be used to train our young entrepreneurs especially in the hospitality industry. After the training, they can be given some money to start a kiosk or cafeteria where they can earn a living. We are very poor planners as a country because we misplace our resources. We view
