Madam Temporary Speaker, in conclusion, I fully support this Sugar Bill. It is a very good intervention by the National Assembly. I agree with most of the proposals in it. However, we just need to make a few amendments here and there so that we can show empathy and support to our farmers. I support.

I thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for giving me the opportunity to support and make a comment on the statement that has been read by Sen. Mwaruma on non-payment of insurance claims by a company by the name AMACO. Many years ago, this country enacted a compulsory third vehicle insurance cover by enacting Cap 405 Laws of Kenya. The purpose of that particular legislation was to put in place a mechanism whereby people who are having either private or commercial vehicles would take insurance cover from reputable insurance companies so that in the event that an accident happens like ...

As you know in this country, it is illegal and it is a traffic offence to drive a car without a third party cover. So, the cover is compulsory in our laws. However, the problem that we have been facing for many years is that most insurance companies are incorporated to collect premiums from very unsuspecting business people especially those in the matatu industry. These premiums are diverted. People do investments using the premiums and they leave the insurance companies insolvent. In that, when the claims are taken to courts and judgments are issued against the insured person, the insurance ...

politically, this is a serious business. If you are unable to run your company in a way that meet its obligations, close shop and go home. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I support.

On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I would like to make a follow-up on what Sen. Farhiya has said and remind her that Sen. Wetangula is a distinguished lawyer. When he says Jubilee Government, he means the entire Jubilee Government. He knows that under Article 147, we have the President and the principal assistant to the President is Hon.(Dr.) William Ruto. So, when he says that Jubilee Government has failed, he means the President plus the Deputy President, Hon. (Dr.) William Ruto. I hope that the Government that he is talking about includes hon. (Dr.) William Ruto ...

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir I also rise in support of the Motion. I want to join my colleagues, fellow Senators, in thanking and applauding architect Sen. Kasanga for the effort she has put in to come up with the Mental Health Bill. I served in the Committee on Health for a while. I have no doubt that the provisions in this Bill will be of great importance to a number of generations in this country. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, as we contribute to this Mental Health Bill, we should also be worried about the risks our dear children are facing. ...

In fact, we all of us should be tempted to go for medical checkups in our county hospitals because they receive more money than anybody else. How can private hospitals like Aga Khan be ahead of the Nairobi City County Government in terms of the research upgrades of the hospitals? I am told that Aga Khan Hospital receives 2500 inpatients from around the region. While if you go to the records of hospitals in Nairobi City County Government, you will only find the lowly. The ones, Sen. Wetangula will call the hustler nation. They are the only ones who will ...
