  • 30 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: So, the Report which seeks to have an external auditor for the Auditor-General is an idea whose time has come and we support it 100 per cent. I urge Members of this House to support so that every coin that Kenyans sweat to give as taxes is used properly, prudently and for the intended purpose. view
  • 30 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: If you see some audit reports and queries from counties or the budget allocated to State House, they have such big mistakes and we doubt their prudent use of finances. Therefore, it is in good taste for us to have an external auditor auditing the Auditor-General so that we can be assured of prudent use of resources. view
  • 30 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: As I conclude many Members have passed their condolences to the families of the late Hon. (Dr.) Joyce Laboso and the Late Hon. Ken Okoth. I want to urge this House to allocate funds because it makes the budget of this country. We should not just allocate funds towards cancer treatment because the mortality rate is almost 90 per cent. If we allocate more funds towards cancer treatment we will not be solving this issue. Instead we should allocate funds towards cancer research so as to find out what causes it and where the rains have started beating us. This ... view
  • 30 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this very important and crucial Motion. I do not want to stress or belabour the point. It is extremely important that in as much as the Auditor-General audits all State agencies, ministries, National – Government Constituencies Development Fund (NG-CDF) offices, et cetera, time has come for him to be audited. I commend the Committee’s work. The way they went about sourcing for the particular organisation that will audit the Auditor-General was laudable. In the spirit of access to information, once the Auditor-General has been audited, we have to take it ... view
  • 3 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. The Chairperson is right. The only problem is the English Language. You know English is not straight forward. So, instead of “accounting officer” let him replace that with “authorised officer.” That is simple English, which came by ship. view
  • 3 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, according to the Mwongozo Code of Governance, it is very simple. Once the secretary is not available, the Deputy Secretary may take over or the members may appoint another person to act as a secretary. You do not have to put that in law. It is there. It is in the Mwongozo Code of Governance. Sometimes, you go deep until you get stuck in the mud. Let us just forget about it. Withdraw the amendment Hon. Chairman. view
  • 2 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: Point of information, Hon. Speaker. view
  • 2 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. These rumours are being peddled because of business rivalry and competition. If India did not accept to be competitive and to have too many hospitals, it would not have been a medical tourism destination. The President’s intention is to expand our capacity in terms of being a business hub in the whole of Africa. These rumours should not curtail us. At the end of the day, the more we open up this country, the more we will be competitive in the whole of Africa. We will be the economic powerhouse in Africa. ... view
  • 27 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. I, the undersigned, on behalf of Hemophilia Patients of Kenya, draw the attention of the House to the following: THAT, the right to health is a fundamental human right guaranteed in the Constitution of Kenya, with Article 43(1)(a) stipulating that every person has the right to the highest attainable standard of health, including the right to health care services; THAT, patients with hemophilia suffer substantially reduced quality of life on account of frequent bleeding episodes and disorders, most of which are life-threatening or lead to disabling joint disease (arthropathy) and shortened life expectancy; THAT, ... view
  • 27 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: management and care in all medical training institutions, and funding support to aid in creation and facilitation of hemophilia disease awareness; (iii) Recommends the recognition of hemophilia as a disabling condition to enable the registration of hemophilia patients with the National Council of Persons with Disability and support the coverage of the condition by the National Hospital Insurance Fund (NHIF); and, (iv) Makes any other recommendations that it deems fit in the circumstances of this matter. And your petitioners will ever pray. view
