Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Minister has laid on the Table a document that we do not know about. However, is he in order to say that there is a Commission of Inquiry that has been set up without mentioning the names of the people comprising it.

8 Jun 2006 in National Assembly:
Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I stand to applaud the Minister for Health for coming up with the HIV and AIDS Prevention and Control Bill. The Bill is long overdue as has been said by my colleagues. I would like to pose a question. In most cases, our people believe that this is a sexually transmitted disease. Is it really? I beg to differ with these people. We have had cases where blood transfusion has been the cause of transmitting this disease. This is a blood infected transmitted disease which the medical department, medical officers of health and ...

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. While the Assistant Minister has difficulties in answering this Question, my concern is that the remuneration of chiefs and Assistant Chiefs has been undermined. This is because they are now required to produce academic qualifications before they are promoted, and yet teachers are promoted on merit. What is the rationale of doing that? There are some chiefs who have worked for a long time and should be promoted on merit. What does the Assistant Minister have to say?

6 Jun 2006 in National Assembly:
Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I take delight in contributing to the debate on the Retirement Benefits (Amendment) Bill. As you have heard from the previous speakers, the Government is the largest employer in the country. The methodology used to look after retirees in this country is pathetic. The National Social Security Fund (NSSF), which is supposed to benefit retirees has made no sense in this country. The money that has been contributed by employers has been invested in big endowments, which include housing units. The NSSF has been collecting rent but contributors, after retirement, do not get anything.

Yes, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The Question says that the young girl was strangled. This is killing. Why should a suspect who has caused loss of a life be left to walk free from February, 2006 up to June, 2006? Could the Assistant Minister answer that question?

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, airstrips and aerodromes in Kenya, which used to be under the Ministry of Transport and Communications, have been neglected. When you go to Kitale Airstrip, you will realise that people cultivate around it and also clear the bushes around by burning them with fire. If the Ministry is seriously demolishing houses along the road reserves why has it been reluctant to remove the fence around the runaway of Kitale Aerodrome which caters for Class III facilitated aircrafts?

On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. You heard what the hon. Member has said. He said that there are two hon. Members who are mentioned in the reports as being barred from holding public office. Could he name them?
