• 14 Jun 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I know the Hon. Member is making a very important contribution. We will be debating in vain if we do not even have a single Committee Member. view
• 14 Jun 2016 in National Assembly: Is it in order for us to debate a very important Bill on roads when we do not have even the Chairman and--- view
• 14 Jun 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you for giving me the opportunity, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. view
• 8 Jun 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. At the outset, I want to thank Hon. Chris Wamalwa for coming up with this Bill. Ranking should be done. I would like to agree with the Chairman of the Committee because ranking enables us to know the resources to allocate. That is because not all the schools have been taught with all the resources. Of course, some of them have less teachers and poor infrastructure. Take a case where we have students who have passed very well with over 380 marks. Where do you take them? You will ... view
• 8 Jun 2016 in National Assembly: Ranking also motivates. The previous speaker has said that it de-motivates but, to me, ranking motivates good performance, particularly amongst the teachers. Two weeks ago, I attended a function in Hon. Wamalwa’s constituency where the best principal and best teacher of the year had been identified in Mombasa. The teachers went to Mombasa for a seminar. It was motivating. Those who were ranked first were given some rewards so that they can do better in future. Similarly, and this is a submission, we compete everywhere. Prof. Kaimenyi came and said that we should not rank schools. But I am here ... view
• 8 Jun 2016 in National Assembly: With those remarks, I support the Bill. view
• 4 May 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for giving me the opportunity to contribute to this Supplementary Budget Bill. My stand is very clear. Something somewhere is not correct. The 2015/2016 Financial Year has come to the end and yet, we see budget requests from various spending units. I wonder what is happening. People are not clear on what they need for one financial year. One financial year is 12 months. It looks like the people who have been given the responsibility to prepare the budget do not do that right. In the last three years, we have seen this country coming ... view
• 4 May 2016 in National Assembly: at their own pleasure. That should stop. We have heard complaints where departments like security and agriculture ask us to give them more money because the National Treasury has reduced their budget without any due reference to the people who are preparing the figures. The Supplementary Budget has requests for some money, particularly for the Higher Education Loans Board (HELB). That is right because most of our children are now going to universities. In most cases, they come back to us to give them bursaries from the Constituencies Development Fund (CDF). Those bursaries are not enough because a student doing ... view
• 3 May 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, this amendment is important. The initial clause created ambiguity. This one shows that the Cabinet Secretary will be bound by the advice of the Authority. It is an important amendment. view
• 28 Apr 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I support this because when they place “not exceeding” they are putting a discretion, that there is a limit which can be given in a fine or which can exceed that amount. view
