I listened to the Mover and looked at the Report together with its recommendations as well as part of the proceedings of the Committee.

Privatization has become the order of the day in this country currently. We have proposals for privatization of the New Kenya Co-operatives Creameries (KCC) ... view
• 23 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: As Parliament, we need to get involved in these matters and ensure that everything does not end up with the EACC, especially given that most of the time, no investigations are carried out.

• 22 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker, for giving me an opportunity to contribute to this very important Bill. I thank hon. Millie Odhiambo-Mabona for bringing it to the House.

• 22 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: comes to the Committee Stage, we will be making proposals to improve the law and make it even much better, so that people in this country can be served better. Currently, what is happening is that if a woman carries a child for another woman she becomes the mother of that child by law. One has to go through a process of adoption in courts. It is a rigorous exercise to claim the child. A lot of time passes and the mother who bore the child for another mother could even get attached to this child. She actually has some ... view
