• 7 Oct 2015 in National Assembly: I hope with the passage of this Bill there will be a bit of reasoning, so that people can appear to have faith in the courts and obey whatever the courts say. That is the only recourse that we have. I am not a lawyer but I have had cases where judges disqualify themselves. When you ask the reason why or you deduce from the proceedings, you find that somebody has disqualified himself or herself because of pressure. In most cases, almost 90 per cent of that pressure comes from the Government. So, the Government should respect laws and the ... view
• 7 Oct 2015 in National Assembly: The other thing I have noticed - I think it is good - is the performance contracting. I am privileged to have worked in Government when my good brother and neighbour Hon. Dalmas was a Minister of State and he introduced the performance contracting. I have been sharing with him notes here. It is something that is good because we are then able to assess or appraise some of the judges.This is something that is very good and we are able to assess some of the judges. I think this is good and Article 29 says that there will be ... view
• 7 Oct 2015 in National Assembly: I also see that they have introduced sign language. I passed by a court to see what was happening and there was a deaf guy before the judge. His relative was helping in interpreting whatever was being said and that helped his independence. If you somehow do not have faith in 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. view
• 7 Oct 2015 in National Assembly: whoever is interpreting, but the courts can have sign language experts, you will understand and follow proceedings. This way, justice will prevail for whoever is involved. view
• 7 Oct 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, as I sit, I want to mention one last thing. It is high time organisation of courts went digital. I know some of the judges are analogue but most of us are now digital. When you go to the court and you are told that your file is missing, it means there are games played in courts. When they say the file is missing, it is not missing. Somebody is hiding it and sometimes the files are altered. The contents of the files are altered and the one that goes before a judge is completely different ... view
• 7 Oct 2015 in National Assembly: We have a system called microfilming. We can have it where the files are microfilmed. This is current. We are in the 21st Century and that is what we should do. I support this because I know this is the digital age, and we hope and pray that the question of going to court and being told that a file is missing, will be something of the past. Therefore, I fully support this Bill and I hope it will come into effect soon, so that people can enjoy the fruits of Uhuru. view
• 7 Oct 2015 in National Assembly: I support. view
• 7 Oct 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I am not clear but at the back of my mind, Hon. Sakaja, with all due respect, let us go the normal way. Let us have this without your amendment because the Senate is there as a House and we cannot skip it for any reason. As Hon. Wamalwa has said, this Bill has to go through the Senate anyway. I do not know what selfish interest the Hon. Member has that this Bill must be passed as early as yesterday. We need time and let the Bill follow the normal procedure. I oppose the amendment. view
• 30 Sep 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I wanted to make my presentation when Hon. Gumbo was here but he has disappeared. Hon. (Eng.) Mahamud has also disappeared. I think there is a misunderstanding of the context of this Bill. I want to thank Hon. Cecilia for having brought this Bill, because all Kenyans know what is happening. The Bill is very clear. I wish Hon. (Eng.) Gumbo was here with his arrogance. To tell us that we do not know the difference between “technology” and “engineering” is an abuse to this House and to the Member of Parliament as it means she ... view
• 30 Sep 2015 in National Assembly: The Bill is very clear. First of all, it is issuing the licences to qualified persons. I do not know whether they have read that or not. We know that there is a difference between a technician and an engineer. We know the difference between a nurse and a doctor. We know that. We have had cases and this is very clear. She has said that this Board will even enter premises and sites. Sometimes we have cases like in Kiambu where the other day a whole building came down. Now, we have at least recourse. We will be able ... view
