• 8 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, this is the second time the Minister has assured this House that recruitment of this cadre of staff is going to be decentralised to the district level. He is now telling us that they have applied for the jobs centrally but they are going to be disaggregated to the districts. Could he tell this House what informed the Ministry to still allow the central application and then disaggregate those applications to the districts? view

• 8 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Assistant Minister has given a very evasive answer to the Question. I asked about the issue of fairness in the distribution of the recruitments. In Part “C” I asked about the per district breakdown of the number recruited. He has said that the recruitment was not based on districts. However, he can still give us the list as per the distributions per district. What he has shown here is the criteria for joining the Administration Police. That is the same criteria for joining NYS except for grade test, profession, specialization and talent. I believe ... view

• 2 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, now that many new districts have been created and will require district headquarters, of the 90 towns that the Minister has told the House, how many will be new district headquarters?

• 2 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this is a Motion to urge the Higher Education Loans Board (HELB) to increase its scope of coverage, so that it can issue students in tertiary institutions with loans. As I had said earlier, the Ministry of Higher Education has really put in a lot of effort in trying to improve tertiary education. That is exemplified by the fact that they have stopped the idea of universities taking over middle level colleges. Indeed, the Minister has actually said that she is intending to put up about 16 new tertiary institutions or middle level colleges in the ... view
• 2 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, first, I would like to thank all the Members who have contributed to this Motion for the overwhelming support it has received from the contributors. Indeed, a community’s level of civilization is judged from how well it treats the youth. This Motion is about our young people. If we ensure the future of our youth, we ensure the future of this country. I beg your indulgence to digress a bit and congratulate the two new hon. Members; Mr. Kizito for Shinyalu and Eng. Ogari for Bomachoge. I also want to mention that Eng. Ogari is a ... view
• 2 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I rise to support this Motion. This is especially based on the issue of food security, food diversity and opening up the export market for processed potatoes. This will create employment. The key area is research. Different types of potatoes grow in different areas. We need research to identify the correct material for the correct places. Further to that, if you notice in this country whenever there is a glut of potatoes, the prices come down so drastically and the farmers earn little. When there is a shortage, the prices shoot up so much and you ... view
• 2 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this chance to contribute to this very important Motion. If you noticed, I have been sitting at the most strange place for me in the history of this House. I have been sitting a very lonely man. In fact, as I listened to the contributions, the only contribution I found reasonable was the one from Mr. ole Ntimama. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, it has been very confusing today listening to what has been going on here. I have wondered. What game are we playing? Are we really being view
