Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, as you are aware, this is a matter that has been in this House for a very long time. The Vice Chairperson has done her best. As you may recall, when I raised this matter two and half weeks ago, the Vice Chairperson undertook to give the statement after two weeks which are already over. Be that as it may, I am obliged to agree, but insist on this statement coming next week.

18 Feb 2016 in Senate:
Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I would like to make a few comments on the Petition by the people of Bukhayo Central Ward in Busia County. This is a clear indication of failure of two organs, not only for Busia County but throughout the country. For Wananch i to bring us this Petition, it clearly shows that there is failure on the body that has been given the responsibility of oversight namely, Members of the County Assemblies (MCAs).

Madam Temporary Chairperson, I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 2 of the Bill be amended by inserting the words “Section 2 of” immediately before the words “The Kenya National”.

Madam Temporary Chairperson, I beg to move:- That, New Clause 2A be read a Second Time. Again, the purpose of this new Clause is to enforce Clause 20 of the mother Act. The Act provides that no institution or individual shall withhold certificates. That is why we stopped.

Therefore, the purpose is to put a penalty of Kshs 200, 000 or imprisonment for a term not exceeding six months or both ...
