• 4 Sep 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I cannot talk about the insurance of the police. This question relates to the Kenya Defence Forces. view
• 4 Sep 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, to answer the hon. Shebesh and the House, I want to confirm that members of the Kenya Defence Forces today are comprehensively insured for whatever circumstances, whether it is an accident or fire. I want to confirm that they are comprehensively insured. view
• 4 Sep 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I have not said that the Government of Kenya will settle the claim. I said that the Ministry of State for Defence will assist Abass to access the funds that have been provided by the British Government, which is his former employer. He was not employed by the Government of Kenya. view
• 4 Sep 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to emphasise once again that, as we all know, we attained our Independence in 1963. Abass left service in 1962. His terms of service did not include pension, which hon. Members are referring to. In any case, the three years he served could not have earned Abass any pension. The question we are dealing with is compensation for injuries suffered while Abass was travelling along Gilgil Road. As I said, he was not entitled to any insurance cover, which did not exist then. If the British Government did not provide for insurance for its ... view
• 4 Sep 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, each case will be treated on its own merit. Certainly, I cannot come here and give a general undertaking on matters I have not examined. I very carefully examined the matter of Abass. I got all the information. That is why I am able to say what I will do about it. I have said, and I want to repeat; that if the British Government set up pension funds for its nationals during those days, those funds must be submitting money to the Government of Kenya once their parliament approves the same. So, if hon. Khalwale ... view
• 29 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I stand here to echo the words of hon. Martha Karua, in condemning in the strongest terms possible, the killing of Sheikh Rogo. view
• 29 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, in the same token, I want also to condemn very strongly the violence that has followed the killing of the Sheikh. This violence has resulted in the killing of many innocent Kenyans, including law enforcement officers. It has also resulted in the destruction of a lot of property. More seriously, it has resulted in the destruction of Christian places of worship. As hon. Karua has stated, both Muslims and Christians in this country have lived peacefully over the years. There is no reason this should be happening today. I am, therefore, calling on the youth who have ... view
• 23 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I just want to explain that this actually relates to recruitment of staff generally to perform certain duties that are not performed by soldiers. In essence, priority is normally given to retired soldiers who are called constabulary. They are covered in Clause 30. I think the Committee will be in order to allow the Military since they are recruiting within the retired personnel to carry out the recruitment without having to advertise as it is when you are recruiting new staff. So, let me persuade my friend, hon. Midiwo, to abandon that proposal. view
