• 10 May 2011 in National Assembly: Yeah, I can deal with the Question, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
• 10 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Assistant Minister has tried to answer the Question although he is denying in his answer to part “c” that the ferry does not actually stop midstream, on several occasions – even yesterday when we were in Mombasa – one of them stopped midstream and it had to be diverted to the other side where they do service. Could the Assistant Minister explain why every now and again these ferries stop view
• 10 May 2011 in National Assembly: midstream and are then diverted to be checked on the other side? I do not know whether it is called “Mtongwe Docking Yard”. view
• 10 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, maybe, the Assistant Minister could also clarify whether the ferry themselves are insured, by whom, and whether the passengers are also covered by an insurance policy. We remember what happened in 1994, when we lost lives which were never compensated for. view
• 5 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, my only question is this, how did the Ministry of Finance or the CBK, allow this illegal business, which the Assistant Minister has just mentioned here, to carry on in their midst without taking remedial action in order to save Kenyans from losing their hard earned money? view
• 5 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Ministry should confirm to this House whether the ESP projects have technical staff from the Ministry, or any other Ministry, who go to the ground to check on the progress status of these projects. Implementation of some of these projects has been very slow. Some of them have taken too long to be completed. view
• 5 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, firstly, the Minister said that there is sufficient diesel in this country. Personally, on two occasions, yesterday and today, I tried to fuel my car at two different filling stations and I was told that I could not buy diesel worth more than Kshs3,000. The petrol attendants said that the stocks of diesel they had were also running out and they did not know when they would have the next stocks. So, could the Minister further confirm whether this story is true? Secondly, the Minister talked about the refinery having some breakdown, which means that ... view
• 5 May 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. When I requested for this Statement yesterday, my mind was very clear as to what had happened the previous day, where even my children arrived at home from their schools at 2.00 a.m. because the vehicles could not move due to lack of fuel. I did not have any malice when I raised this question in this House. I want the Minister to correct that insinuation that this matter was brought to this House to bring him down. view
• 4 May 2011 in National Assembly: asked the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance:- (a) whether he could provide a list of all parastatals, stating their respective mandates; (b) which of the corporations are self-sustaining and pay dividends to the Government; and, (c) which of the parastatals depend on the Government for survival and why. view
• 4 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Assistant Minister has indicated that 103 parastatals depend on the Government for their survival. Why should the Government continue to support certain parastatals like sugar factories and hotels, which do business and make profit? It also supports some banks like the Consolidated Bank. Why should that happen and yet the parastatals are making profit? view
