Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I support this amendment because we cannot use words like “community health unit” without having definition. Again, the community health workers should be within the community so they can resolve matters arising in that particular community. You cannot be a community health worker of a community in Isiolo while you reside in Kisumu.

Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. Before I even go the nitty-gritties of this Bill, let me commend you, because the NG-CDF has done a lot. As a PWD and having been the Chairman of the National Council for Persons with Disabilities, I have seen special schools being built by the NG-CDF. I have seen children with disabilities going through primary schools, secondary schools and even universities courtesy of CDF. I, therefore, ask Members of this House to increase CDF ten-fold. We have the power and the will to do so. We can ...

Most of them use other peoples’ companies to apply for contracts, and those cartels end up making profits on behalf of those that the Government actually targeted. In contracting, we are saying that class 6, 7 and 8 should be exempted if they are PWDs, women and youth. They should not pay any registration fee that exceeds 15 per cent. By doing so, we will empower a certain category of PWDs, women and youth, and they will now have the financial muscles ...

Hon. Deputy Speaker, this is a very important Statement Request because public funds were used on a document that the High Court, the Court of Appeal, and the Supreme Court declared illegal and unconstitutional or null and void. The reason is because we want to recover this money. Where do we recover this money from? Is it from the Principal Secretaries and the Steering Committee Members or from the Handshake brothers? If it is from the Handshake brothers, since we are aware that the sitting President cannot be sued, we can sue the bonoko “president” so that he refunds Kshs15 ...
