• 26 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you very much and I support this Bill. view
• 26 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this Bill and take this opportunity to congratulate Hon. Waititu on the Law of Contract (Amendment) Bill. It is an assumption that lenders exercise due diligence and control in lending and realisation of debts from principal debtors. It is noted that the guarantor’s obligation is actually secondary and not primary. It has begun to appear that for these lending institutions, the assets or collateral of the guarantor appear more attractive to the lender than that of the principal borrower. In short, going forward, it is my considered opinion that the ... view
• 26 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, it is not a coincidence. Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. I always come on time. I support this amendment but there is something I want to be clear about. The amendment states that this regulation will be set by the The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 26 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: National Treasury with the approval of Parliament. If you say “with the approval of Parliament”, does it mean both the Senate and the National Assembly or does it mean that the National Treasury can decide to get the approval from the Senate, which is also part of Parliament and that is it? That is the only thing I want to be clear on. Is it both the National Assembly and the Senate or can it only be the National Assembly? We are deciding about the Senate. The Senate cannot shoot themselves in the foot. We should be clear. The amendment ... view
• 25 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. This issue of demolitions has become a process of settling scores by some Government officers. A building of, for example, four stories is not built inside a pocket. It is constructed publicly and authorities such as the National Environment Management Authority (NEMA) are always aware. You cannot construct a building in secret. Constructions are done in broad daylight where everybody sees. It is at that point that they ought to stop construction. However, since they use that to settle scores, many investors have been scared away from our country. When you are told that a licence ... view
• 25 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: It is high time this House gave a directive that in case of any demolition, the Government should compensate the investors. Indeed, we need development such as the Standard Gauge Railway (SGR) and roads, but if somebody has built on a road reserve, the concerned authorities should stop the construction from the beginning instead of intervening much later when the property is in the hands of a third owner. view

• 19 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this noble Motion. We are losing many people through road accidents which are caused by human negligence, especially by drivers. Apart from losing lives, my club of Persons with Disabilities (PWDs) keeps on ballooning because of road carnage. Every now and then when we have a road accident, the media and the citizens of this country concentrate on the number of deaths. Those who are maimed become a burden to our society because some of them will require wheelchairs, crutches and tax exemptions. They would also like to import ... view
• 19 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, a pilot who flies an helicopter of two passengers has known qualifications, say, from secondary school and has definitely undergone thorough training. A pilot of a fixed-wing aircraft of, say, six passengers, is a person who attained, perhaps, an A or a B plus in secondary school. What about the drivers of buses that carry more than 40 passengers? They do not have any known qualifications. We do not even know the schools they went through. We just license them to be carriers of a number of passengers that is 10 times more the number of passengers ... view
• 19 Jun 2019 in National Assembly: The problem lies in licensing through the NTSA. It has become another den of corruption that is full of cartels. They license anybody as long as they can get a kickback. I have a case in point where a matatu Sacco in Narok has been registered since 2014 without going through the normal process. I will bring a petition on that matter to this House. All indications are that the The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only.
