Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, first of all, I want to commend the Committee for proposing this because you have to be very clear on how Kenyans in the diaspora are going to vote. We must be very sure that the Kenyans outside there---

9 Oct 2012 in National Assembly:
Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I would like to, first of all, commend the Committee, because our main concern, as Kenyans, is to ensure that genuine Kenyans outside there do vote. I have two issues here. First, I want to plead with the Chair to consider deleting as indicated by hon. Millie Odhiambo, that any Kenyan outside there who is validly in that country must be having a valid Kenyan passport. If we include the national identity card, we are actually allowing “illegal” Kenyans, who are illegally in those countries to vote in our embassies. That means that our embassies are ...

9 Oct 2012 in National Assembly:
Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I want to confirm that as a Committee we sat and we do agree with these proposed amendments. However, it is important to note that stopping the withholding of certificates might in the other ways affect institutions in the sense that principals will ensure that all the fees are paid before the students sit for examinations. That way, we will not have any problem thereafter.

Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. The Minister has indicated that nobody can be allowed to act for more than six months. We have witnessed in the past where people have acted up to one year. Given this period, when we are heading into a General Election, there is a likelihood that the six months will fall within maybe one week or two weeks before the General Election. What has the Minister done to expedite the replacement of these people in one or two months?

On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is the Assistant Minister in order to really avoid answering a very specific question? He is calling it a nasty activity and we are talking of a licence which was given to Bedford Bio- fuels to invest in 10,000 hectares. Supposing they had actually invested, and therefore, they could actually take the Government to court, what specific action have you taken on this officer who might actually put you in trouble as a Ministry?

26 Sep 2012 in National Assembly:
Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to thank the Assistant Minister for being candid enough to indicate here that the hospital lacks adequate facilities. This sub-district hospital was upgraded 12 years ago and not a single additional facility has been done up to now. What urgent measures has the Assistant Minister put in place to ensure that this sub-district hospital gets these facilities because it is important?
