Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, let me tell Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale that despite my first term in this House, I am not that illiterate.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, a lot has been said, but I have one or two points to contribute. My question goes to the donors because they are really particular about the usage of their money. Why are development partners acting as conduits of money siphoning by the governors? The donors should go back to the drawing board and inquire how the money is used. The second point that has already been raised is in regard to the person who approved the allocations. We, as Senators, sit here and ask for money to be allocated to The electronic version of the ...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I join my colleagues in condemning this situation in Meru. What the governor for Meru is doing is a crime. Women and children are suffering because of lack of equipment. The governor is doing this because of his personal interest; nothing else. He should be held accountable for this heinous crime. For some of us who come from Isiolo and part of upper Eastern region, we consider Meru to be where we can go to, whenever we have challenges in accessing some of those facilities. The constitutional provision is very clear in terms of the right to ...

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I join my colleagues to congratulate the Mediation Committee for having resolved the outstanding issues. Kenyans will have something to smile about, especially if this Bill becomes operational. For us in northern Kenya, over the years, we have had a lot of challenges, especially in terms of how licences for mineral explorations were issued. This is because over the years, licences are issued in Nairobi without the consent of the communities on the ground. In the process of mining, owners of mines who are given licences do not respect communities on the ground. We have had ...

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would request the Senator to give us about a month to be able to respond to those issues because it is very lengthy and it also requires a thorough search.

Madam Temporary Speaker, first let me take this opportunity to thank the Chairperson of the Committee. However, my question was specific on the connection of electricity to Oldonyiro. Unfortunately, the Chairperson is giving me what the department has been doing in Isiolo County. So, I would request him to be specific in terms of the urgency of this matter especially given that this is a matter that concerns that county in terms of security. Connecting electricity from Laikipia to Oldonyiro is not far. I would urge the Chairperson to give me a specific period within which electricity will be connected. ...

Madam Temporary Speaker, I appreciate the response given by the Member of the Committee on behalf of the Chairperson. I have no further clarification on the same. I hope the department will take action on that matter come FY 2016/2017.

Madam Temporary Speaker, I thank the Chairperson of the Committee for the response. The reason why these committees are supposed to be operationalized is for the purpose of compensation for victims of the wildlife and human conflict. There is so much violation of human rights by wildlife in this country. In question 3, in Isiolo County, we have a lot of backlog in terms of the cases that are before the Committee. Unfortunately, apart from establishing the Committee, they have not been operational. That is the true picture because they do not have budgetary allocations. Secondly, they were not given ...
