Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to support this Motion for Consideration of the Second Supplementary Estimates for the Financial Year 2021/2022. As you can see, the figures are Ksh70.8 billion which is the bridge that the CS for Treasury is seeking that we approve. What I just want to highlight briefly is the issue of the petroleum subsidy. This has been captured very well. Hon. Speaker, if you can recall, two months ago there was a lot of outcry in terms of supply of petroleum. I am happy that the CS for Treasury together with the President have managed ...

we support it so that we complete the issues touching on drought which could not wait but the CS had to disburse the money. On the issue of the petroleum subsidy, we did not have to wait. It had to be disbursed so that Kenyans can live within their borders comfortably. What also comes out in this Supplementary Bill is infrastructure. What has been captured in the Report is only infrastructure touching on security and not infrastructure at large. All details of infrastructure at large are implored into the main budget so that what has been spent is not infrastructure ...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. On behalf of the great people of Navakholo and my own behalf, allow me to pass my sincere condolences to the family of the late Hon. Mwamkale Kamoti. I happen to have served with him in the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs. Before then, in 2013 when we both came to this House, he invited us to Rabai when he was celebrating his homecoming party. I had the privilege of sharing with the people of Rabai. This man was such a humble person. Whenever we were in the Committee, he was very patient and ...

Hon. Speaker, I beg to move that the Supreme Court (Amendment) Bill (National Assembly Bill No.15 of 2022) be now read a Second Time. It is just slightly over 10 years since the constitution of our first Supreme Court as we know it today. As we would all appreciate, the institution of the Supreme Court came to reinforce the unique role of the Judiciary, especially in safeguarding the rule of law and constitutionalism. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor.

Hon. Speaker, as Members of the House would appreciate, the pre-2010 era was marked by very difficult times where concepts such as “access to justice” or the “independence of the Judiciary” had very limited recognition. Thus in 2010 Kenyans adopted our current Constitution with optimism and renewed hope. The Supreme Court is now at its teenage stage – that stage in life when a number of changes are desirable in preparation for adulthood. It is in that sense that this amendment Bill comes before this August House for consideration. Hon. Speaker, after 10 years of commendable service to the Kenyan ...
