• 16 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the KAA is a very important institution in this country and you have seen here that for the last six months it did not have a chairman of the Board. Why did the Board fail to hold its meetings between January and August last year? view
• 16 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, could the Assistant Minister give us the names that were forwarded to the appointing authority for appointment? view
• 10 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: asked the Minister of State for Provincial Administration and Internal Security:- (a) whether he is aware that police officers manning weighbridges are demanding bribes from drivers and owners of overloaded trucks; (b) why the officers demand that owners of the alleged trucks appear in courts; and, (c) why the police also demand that original logbooks of the trucks be deposited with them in the process view
• 10 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, if the Minister is denying that police officers manning these weighbridges are taking bribes, how comes recently about six trucks carrying 60 tonnes each from Mombasa were arrested in Kisumu with the same cargo? How did they manage to reach Kisumu with 60 tonnes of cargo each? view
• 10 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: On a point of Order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The Assistant Minister knows very well that I am a Member of Parliament, I cannot go to the weighbridges and look at what is taking place there. That is not my role. view

• 10 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: Thank you, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. I want to oppose this Motion for one simple reason. This is a very serious process, and some people have already suggested – we read it in the papers today – that they are going to mutilate this document in Naivasha. Some of us know exactly what happened in Naivasha last time when the PSC was meeting there and we do not want to be part of that process. This document is acceptable to the people of this country. We do not want to go there and bond for the purposes of wasting public ... view
• 9 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, Sigoti Health Centre in my constituency has also operated without electricity for the last six months. I wonder whether the Assistant Minister can direct that the money they collect in terms of cost-sharing can be converted to paying power bills from time to time? view
• 3 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, why does Ministry continue to license importers of dairy products, yet we have sufficient milk in this country? view
• 2 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to ask the Minister for Co-operative Development and Marketing the following Question by Private Notice. (a) Why has the New KCC failed to take delivery of all the milk produced by dairy farmers and how much money have the farmers lost as a result of the failure? (b) What plans does the Minister have to purchase all the milk produced locally in the future? (c) Does the country import dairy products from other countries and, if so, what is the justification? view
