Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this Motion. I support the approval of Mr. Ali Noor Ismael and Mr. Patrick Omutia to the respective positions they were vetted for. Let me take this opportunity to thank the President of this country for having chosen people of the right character and caliber. We have so far seen that the Committees have been endorsing the President’s choice. The public was invited to participate and there have been minimum adverse comments against those characters. I also would like to thank the Committee which was given this job. I believe it ...

Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I am sorry, I have spent the whole day in a committee meeting and I have been saying that, that is a slip of the tongue.

I stand to support the Motion and thank my brother, hon. Wesley Korir for bringing it. I note with appreciation that our athletes are the best ambassadors this country can have. Their welfare, protection and security are paramount and should be placed in the forefront by our Government, especially the embassies where the athletes traverse in the name of bringing glory to this country. Most countries in the world have good frameworks for supporting their athletes, medically, security wise and for getting them to know how to manage their finances. It is very unfortunate that in this country individual athletes ...

Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. I would like to thank Hon. Hassan Juma for bringing this Motion. I rise to support it. First and foremost, it is clear that the National Youth Council was established in 2009 and gazetted in 2012, after a spell of three years. After gazettement, the Council complied with all the requirements in order for it to be registered. The process was completed and it met all the provisions of the Act. It beats logic as to why the Treasury should still be holding that money, instead of giving it ...

Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I rise to support this Motion. Allow me to congratulate my friend, hon. Chachu, for bringing this Motion. That is because there are so many teething problems as far as tourism is concerned in this country and, especially, with regard to wild animals. Tourism is one of the main foreign exchange earners in our country. The efforts that have been put to revitalize the agricultural sector have not been put to revitalize the tourism sector. That has brought apathy where people are killing the animals haphazardly. Once we deplete those animals, I believe ...

Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to support this Motion. I beg to support. As we speak here, the Mover of the Motion, hon. Ngâongo, was concentrating too much on the fact that fish is only found where there are oceans and lakes. However, it is now a fact that fish is the main food for many people because of its health benefits and availability. Given the fact that food security in this country - as the Mover has said - is already threatened, I believe that the sooner we fast- track the salvaging of that ...
