• 20 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, what the Assistant Minister is describing is a very high quality trauma management facility or centre. But I am aware that along the hotspots of accidents, for example, the Mombasa-Nairobi Highway, Voi, Nairobi-Nakuru Highway and other places, there were plans to set up maybe downscaled trauma management units. How far has the Government gone in setting up those units along places where so many Kenyans are having accidents in order to save lives? view
• 20 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I just want to seek a clarification. In the previous Question, when we were asking about Ijara District and Tana River County, this House was told that there is no money. In this Question about the re-carpeting, we are now being told that there is Kshs1.6 billion and the work will start in a few months time. Is the Assistant Minister fair to this country? Is it equitable? view
• 20 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I wish to seek a Ministerial Statement from the Minister of State for Public Service regarding the Government officers who will be employed to work in the county governments once they get in place next year after the general election. I would want the Minister to clarify the following: Which Government departments have posted officers in an acting capacity in preparation for the county governments? Second, have the Budget lines for the preparation of the Government departments to operate in an acting capacity been approved? Has the Government set any structural ... view
• 20 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to oppose this Motion. view
• 20 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: I may be alone, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, but I want to request that the House hears what Mr. Mbadi has said. Mr. Mbadi said that the Appropriation Bill must be passed by this House before we can have the Vote on Account. Mr. Mbadi tabled a High Court ruling by Justice Majanja. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, now that we have a clear direction as far as interpretation of the law is concerned, and as far as the mistake that was done last year was interpreted by a High Court Judge, will it be correct for us to purport to ... view
• 19 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, any person who is licensed to handle potentially dangerous objects or machines is required by law to take an insurance cover. So, if you own an aeroplane or a vehicle, you are required to take a cover. Now, if the Government has licensed these conservancies, which have a potential to harm people, why has the Assistant Minister not required them to take an insurance cover upon which these two women would have naturally been compensated? view
• 19 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I really want to thank the Chairman of the Committee. If you look at the proposal that the Committee has brought, it is actually an improvement because the governor will in a wholesome way be looking after all these departments. I think, as a House, we should support this. It is a big improvement on what the President had proposed. I urge the House that we support this amendment by the Departmental Committee. view
• 19 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, there has been confusion and even fears about the position of the County Commissioners who were posted recently, leading to the emergence of a controversy. With the establishment of the intergovernmental county forum, which will be chaired by the Governor by law, it is very clear that in as much as the County Commissioners will have some other duties, there will be only one head of Government co-ordinating issues in the county. The creation of the intergovernmental forum is the best way we could have solved the potential conflict that could have been there. So, ... view
• 19 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I pray that the same spirit of co-ordination between the National Government and the County Governments shall persist with the passage of these amendments and the improvement on the Presidential Memorandum. view
• 19 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Thank you. view
