• 1 Oct 2020 in Senate: is what led us to go to court and argue that issue before the High Court with a hope that for once and for all, the High Court will come up with a definition that creates some clarity on what is a money Bill. I am saying this because you know that we have passed very progressive Bills. I sympathize with my friend Sen. (Arch.) Kasanga. She came up with a fantastic mental health Bill. We debated and thought it was a very good idea. When it went to the National Assembly, it was killed on that excuse that it ... view
• 1 Oct 2020 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, they will be told you have employed people here. You have new cadre of workers in the county and you are not paying them minimum wages. You have not allowed them to join trade unions. That will create a major problem. In fact, it will be a messy affair than what we have currently. Let us also be careful that we do not overburden counties. In my county, the request from the department of health, the County Executive Committee Member (CEC) of Health requires about Ksh211 million for adequate supply of medicine to hospitals. We are only ... view
• 30 Sep 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, Sen. Mwaruma has raised a very important issue before the House. If you follow the report on the Truth Justice and Reconciliation Commission (TJRC), you will note that there is no region that has been affected by the poor inhabitant like the Coast region. It is only there that you will find people we call ‘absentee landlords’; people who own big tracks of land that should ordinarily be owned by the local people, yet they are somewhere in the diaspora. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this ... view
• 30 Sep 2020 in Senate: I will invite my colleagues who are raising doubts on the misuse of the former presidents on allocations of land to take a keen interest and read the TJRC report. There was also another report that was prepared in 2012 by a reputable lawyer called, Ndung’u which is popularly referred to as the ‘Ndung’u Report’. Reading the two reports, you will find that the poor Kenyans at the Coast were disposed of their land and some of them are living at the mercy of very powerful individuals in this country who remind them every day that they will evict them. ... view
• 30 Sep 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I have a lot of faith and confidence in Mr. Ahmednasir Abdullahi. Over the weekend, the Committee on Justice, Legal Affairs and Human Rights had the opportunity to review the petition that was to be filed by our lawyer and gave our input. I can assure this House that Mr. Abdullahi has raised serious constitutional issues that are worth being considered by the High Court and may lead to the reviewing of the advisory by the Chief Justice that went to the President. I will not go into the details of The electronic version of the Senate ... view
• 30 Sep 2020 in Senate: the matter, but I would like to assure the House that we are in safe hands so we should hope for the very best from our lawyer, Mr. Ahmednasir Abdullahi. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I thank you. view
• 29 Sep 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, can I can inform the Senator what is in the Report? view
• 29 Sep 2020 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I just wanted to inform the Senator, who is moving the amendment that so that he can carry along the Senators, he needs to make reference to Page 9. After page 143, the renaming of Report starts afresh from Page 2, 3 all through up to Page 9. He needs to inform Members that he is moving to delete Paragraphs 5, 6 and 7 appearing on Page 9 and 10 of the Report, so that he is able to move along with the Senators. view
• 29 Sep 2020 in Senate: The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only.A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate. view
• 29 Sep 2020 in Senate: Just a minute. The confusion being created in the House is that Members are making reference to the preface of the Report and not the recommendations appearing after Page 143. I think that is the amendment that the Senator for Machakos County is moving. view
