• 1 Nov 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, that is agreeable. I was only going to appeal that I get a positive answer next week. view
• 25 Oct 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to ask the Minister for Roads and Public Works the following Question by Private Notice. (a) Could the Minister urgently provide a bailey bridge across Thangatha River along the road connecting Gatunga and Meru National Park in Tharaka North Division to enable pupils in Kanjoro and Ntoroni locations, which are cut off, to sit for this year's national exams? (b) Could he also provide another bridge across Munyari River near Kibunga Market to enable pupils in Kathura Sub Location, which has four schools, to sit for their exams this year? view
• 25 Oct 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, that is a very sad answer because, in the first place, the DRC does not have the capacity to provide bailey bridges. Even in the entire province, we have only one engineer at the provincial headquarters. This issue is based at the Ministry headquarters and that is where we have the bridges unit. Does this not condemn the pupils from those areas from doing their national exams? Could the Assistant Minister look for an alternative to this problem so as to help the pupils sit for their national exams this year? view
• 25 Oct 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, Tharaka Constituency Development Committee has committed Kshs38 million on bridges and we are now repairing four bridges. This is one area that has taken most of our money. This is how serious the matter is in terms of bridges. The last rains October 25, 2006 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 3097 were in March and that is when the bridge was washed away and, incidentally, this bridge also falls on the road that will link us all the way to Ethiopia. It is not only a national trunk road but an international trunk road. I do not know how the ... view
• 25 Oct 2006 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The Assistant Minister must be honest in this House. There are funds for emergency response in the Ministry. He should tell us why he cannot repair that bridge using those funds. Is he in order to avoid the element of emergency funds in the Ministry? view
• 25 Oct 2006 in National Assembly: Order, hon. Members! Please, let us consult in low tones so that we can all hear what the hon. Member is saying. view
• 17 Oct 2006 in National Assembly: asked the Minister for Tourism and Wildlife why the family of Justus Kibaara has not been compensated after their daughter was killed by an elephant on 7th April, 2000 in Ntugi Location of Tharaka District. view
• 17 Oct 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the claim was sent in the same year; 2000! view
• 17 Oct 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am saying that the claim was sent in the year 2000. Has the Minister asked the District Commissioner (DC) whether he is still keeping the claim? The DC was given the claim in the year 2000. view
• 17 Oct 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, as a matter of procedure, I do not know when we are supposed to get the answer. If I had this answer yesterday, I would have come with a copy of the claim from Mr. Kibaara. But when you are given an answer here, what do you do? I would like to request the Minister, after he leaves this House, to call the District Commissioner (DC) in Tharaka, so that he could get the claim from there. The claim was forwarded to the DC. view
