• 14 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Deputy Speaker. Thank you very much, Hon. Boss Shollei, for donating those minutes to me. Hon. Deputy Speaker, those who are normally affected by road traffic accidents are mostly persons with disabilities. The membership of our club gets bloated every now and then through road accidents. So, I am an interested stakeholder when it comes to traffic rules. I support the annulment of these regulations because, for once, this may be another soft- landing spot for officers of NTSA, who were removed from our roads for trying to manipulate the issuance of transport and traffic ... view
• 14 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I rise to support the annulment of these regulations in their entirety. In 2017, Kenya was ranked 80 out of 190 countries marked in terms of ease of doing business, having risen from 92 in 2016. One of the key pillars of the four-point agenda is affordable housing. These regulations are going to make this untenable. Housing and ease of doing business go hand-in-hand.

• 14 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: who come in our country and they want to employ people. They want to live in their homes and the rent must be affordable for them. If these regulations had gone through, it would have caused the rent to skyrocket. Another thing the Committee has noted is that in most of the regulations that have been annulled, there was total disregard to public participation and yet, public participation is anchored in Article 118 of the Constitution of Kenya. It states that Parliament must ensure or facilitate public participation. Indeed, the policy towards solar heating is one that should be encouraged ... view

• 14 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Deputy Speaker. At the outset, let me congratulate the Committee for doing such a wonderful job because these regulations are very punitive. They are meant to scare away investors. At times, we come up with regulations not necessarily to assist the common mwananchi, but with an intention of creating some business opportunities for some individuals. An example is in the year 2000, when there was an anticipation of La Nina after the El Nino of 1997. Some good people in this country imported very big generators that were meant to be hired by the Government ... view

• 14 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: This is another creation of business opportunity for an individual. The Committee did a very good job and came up with a Report seeking to annul these regulations because there was no public participation. It does not mean that water consumption is equivalent to the size of the house. Those of us who were hustlers who lived 10 of us in a single room know that, sometimes, a single room can have a bigger population than a big house. There were times we were surviving 10 of us in a single room. You can imagine the level of water consumption ... view
