• 27 May 2009 in National Assembly: DISBURSEMENT OF MEMBERS’ DONATIONS TO IDPS view
• 27 May 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I seek another Ministerial Statement from the Minister of State for Special Programmes on how the Kshs11 million that the hon. Members of this House generously donated to the Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs), was spent. We formed a Committee that was supposed to be involved. I would like to know whether that Committee of the House was part and parcel of the disbursement process. I seek this Ministerial Statement in my capacity as the Chairman of Amani Forum. I attended a public meeting yesterday in Limuru and was given the express mandate by the good people ... view
• 27 May 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am guided by the ruling of the Chair. However, I would also like to remind the Chair that I was on a parliamentary business out of the country last week. So, let the matter rest there. However, the Ministerial Statement I sought from the Minister of State for Provincial Administration and Internal Security--- view
• 27 May 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. The Assistant Minister is a very good friend of this House and given the fact that he has demonstrated willingness to co-operate with the House, we plead with the Chair to defer this Ministerial Statement to the afternoon when the hon. Member will be present? I plead with the Chair to consider this, given the fact that there are many times when Ministers commit themselves to this House and they come to plead for more time, and we have been generous to give them that extension. This includes my Statement today. view
• 27 May 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. I do not understand what the Minister is asking you to rule on. He is dealing with semantics. We have better issues to deal with in terms of aggression. In fact, I thought the Minister would say Migingo, Kacheliba and Turkana and make the Motion complete. view
• 27 May 2009 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I really hate to interrupt my good friend and a Minister I respect. But I have done that because I cannot sustain my sitting here to allow the Minister to mislead this House! Article 34 of the UN Charter gives the Security Council the power to investigate a dispute, which is a threat to peace. view
• 27 May 2009 in National Assembly: How can he claim that the UN Charter does not have that provision? view
• 26 May 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is it in order for the Attorney-General to mislead the House that the new law does not exist and that he can purport to bring things before the Floor of the House without taking into account the laws that we have already passed and implemented? Is he in order? view
• 14 May 2009 in National Assembly: asked the Minister for Medical Services:- (a) whether he could table the AIE allocations per Item and how much Lodwar District Hospital owes respective suppliers per annum and the kind of goods/services supplied from 2002/2003 financial year to date; (b) why the hospital has delayed paying the suppliers; and, (c) when the Government will pay all outstanding dues to al the suppliers. view
• 14 May 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to thank the Minister for a very good detailed answer. He has conceded that suppliers to Lodwar District Hospital have not been paid. He has confirmed that he has already completed the inventory of the debts and is looking for additional funding. When can these suppliers be paid, so that the hospital can clear these outstanding bills, noting that they amount to only Kshs6 million? I am sure, he has been paying bigger bills than these ones. view
