  • 12 Mar 2019 in Senate: scrutinised by county assemblies. This will ensure that the statutory instrument conforms to the constitution and other written laws that are made for the purposes of ensuring effective delivery of services and maintenance of law and order in the counties. I, therefore, urge the hon. Senators to support this Bill. view
  • 12 Mar 2019 in Senate: During our county visit, as the Senate Sessional Committee on Delegated Legislation Members, we found that quite a number of the Bills passed in most of the county assemblies have no regulations. The reasons are varied. However, one of the biggest impediments is that there is no law that is providing a framework to ensure that the county assemblies review regulations that are tabled and the procedure through which these regulations are passed. This is because the powers to make regulations are in their docket, but they have delegated that to the Executive. view

  • 12 Mar 2019 in Senate: I thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. view
  • 12 Mar 2019 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I beg to second. view
  • 26 Feb 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker, for allowing me to contribute to this Bill. I thank Sen. Halake for bringing it. It is long overdue and what is required to develop this country. We are missing out on a lot of development because of inequality that is in the country. This is because whenever there is an election, people think about whether their leaders are in the presidential race so that they can benefit. If this legislation did not only exist on paper but on real terms, then everybody will demand for their right as provided by the Constitution of Kenya ... view
  • 26 Feb 2019 in Senate: development, it needs hardworking people. There has to be output. The population of the country has to produce and add value to the product, have functioning industries and brains that work. For this country to harness that opportunity, it needs a level playing field. Therefore, we need such legislation to enable that environment to exist. The inequality that exists in this country is due to corruption. People like shortcuts, for example, during examination period, people steal the exams so that they can take an opportunity that is not theirs. However, when they are caught cheating, they say that they have ... view
  • 26 Feb 2019 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, the other issue that I feel good about this law is the fact that it mandates the county governments to ensure that there is a strategy put in place and followed. It ensures that it is not just on paper, but there is related action that follows. This law envisages collaboration between departments in terms of the development of the action plans and implementation. Also, this law envisages that there are sufficient financial and human resources to ensure that this is followed. This law also requires that there is a gap analysis, because we can never ensure ... view
  • 26 Feb 2019 in Senate: The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate. view
  • 26 Feb 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Senator. This is what discourages Kenyans from working hard. To come back to my earlier point, if hardworking Kenyans are not rewarded appropriately, then this country will never develop, or whatever development we achieve, will be destroyed by any other subsequent elections, the same way we experienced during the post-election violence and the likes. It is because people will think that they will never get equal opportunity. What will happen to the minority, for example, who know that they do not have enough numbers to ever have their own elected as the President of this country? Do they ... view
