• 6 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I thought the Chairman would have referred to me as a ranking Member because that is what you have been saying since morning. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I will speak from experience because I have seen what happened after the 2013 elections. Many counties did not elect women representatives in the county assemblies. At the time of electing the Speaker of the county assembly, the Deputy Speakers, the chairpersons of the various committees, we did not have gender representation. There is a reason why in the Constitution we stated that we should have one-third gender obligation ... view

• 6 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I support that amendment because as we have been doing in passing the Fair Administrative Law, it allows persons to know decisions that have been made by corporations so that they understand if those decisions are prejudicial or not. Also if one is able to get the reason why a particular issue has been rejected or has been accepted then it will save on time and cost. So, this is a good amendment that should be supported. view
• 4 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, under Standing Order No. 1, this is a House guided by rules. We have already adopted the Motion appearing at Order No. 14 as per this Order Paper. I do not know what exactly the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) Chairperson has issues with. However, we need to know what Standing Orders they are using to raise the issues they are raising or to compel a Member to vote in a certain way after a Committee has adopted a Report. We need your guidance, Hon. Deputy Speaker. view
• 30 Jul 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker. I stand to support this Motion by the Departmental Committee on Defence and Foreign Relations. I congratulate them for the work they have done. I am the Chair of the Committee on Regional Integration. Mostly, we deal with issues of the East African Region and within Africa as a region. Within this East African Region, we have seen that our leaders have been very keen in ensuring that the integration process is quickened and much more that we deepen and widen the integration process. Much as we have been keen on doing this, we cannot ... view
• 30 Jul 2015 in National Assembly: As a Committee, we have gone round the various EAC partner states. We have visited Tanzania and Uganda. We have looked at the various institutions that have been established by the EAC. We have the Civil Aviation Safety and Security Oversight Agency commonly known as CASSOA, the Inter-University Council of East Africa and the East African Court of Justice. Those institutions and many more, even the Lake Victoria Basin Authority, are shared within the EAC. However, we have seen that there has been lacking a common stand in as far as issues of defence, peace and security are concerned. Madam ... view
• 30 Jul 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. We need peace and security. We need a standby force and institutions that handle issues of security within The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.

• 30 Jul 2015 in National Assembly: the EAC. Much as we have the other institutions that deal with trade, education and many other matters, this is the right time we should be putting in place those kind of institutions to take care of our security. view
• 30 Jul 2015 in National Assembly: When we went to Uganda, one of the things that my Committee was impressed with is the fact that within the Ugandan border, there is clear security. They have deployed their defence forces to guard the boundaries between Uganda and Kenya. However, when you look at the Kenyan side, there has not been a clear guideline on how our security is supposed to protect our borders. Those are some of the things that our Attaché in Uganda raised with us as a Committee that, as a country, we need to define our security measures within the Kenya-Uganda border. view
