• 25 Aug 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I have already indicated that when funds are available, I will take the earliest opportunity to include this road for tarmacking. view
• 25 Aug 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, we have just rolled out a document, namely; Maintenance Manual, which will be launched very soon. It indicates how a road should be maintained or repaired, be it a tarmac or a murram road. Similarly, it gives specifications of the materials for murraming a road. All the materials that are used are tested. That is why I am placing, at every construction site, a site engineer from the Ministry to make sure that the materials being used by the contractors are within the specifications and are tested accordingly. view
• 25 Aug 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would have wished to give that information, but I do not have it available immediately. However, I can assure the House that I will endeavour to make sure that the job is completed within the period I have specified in my answer this afternoon. view
• 25 Aug 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I seek your indulgence. That is a different Question all together. I want to seek your indulgence for the Member to bring an appropriate Question for me to be ready to answer it at an appropriate time. view
• 25 Aug 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, when a contractor is awarded a contract to do a particular section of a road, it is his responsibility to recruit staff as he deems fit. I have given general instructions though, that for any casual jobs, they must be reserved for the locals in that area. But for anything that would require expertise or a certain level of experience, I do not want to interfere because I will also be putting the contractor in a very awkward position that will not allow me to audit his work later. view
• 25 Aug 2010 in National Assembly: Bw. Naibu Spika, naomba kujibu. view
• 25 Aug 2010 in National Assembly: (a) Nina habari kwamba sehemu kadhaa za Barabara ya Rumuruti-Maralal C77 zimeharibiwa na mvua, sawa na barabara zingine katika sehemu nyingine za nchi. view
• 25 Aug 2010 in National Assembly: (b) Wizara yangu imetayarisha mchoro wa kuweka lami barabara hii na inatafuta pesa pamoja na wafadhili ili kuanzisha mradi wa kuweka lami. Hata hivyo, ningependa kusema kwamba tumeweka kiwango cha kshs30 milioni kwa awamu hii ya fedha kugharamia ukarabati ili barabara hii iweze kupitika na kutumika bila shida kwa wasafiri. view
• 25 Aug 2010 in National Assembly: Bw. Naibu Spika, ninafikiri ni maswali wala si swali. Ningetaka kurudia kwamba tunafahamu kwamba barabara hiyo imeharibika na ni tatizo kwa wasafiri kutoka Rumuruti-Maralal. Nimesema kwamba tumetenga kiasi cha Kshs30 milioni, na awamu ya kwanza imeenda kwa mwanakandarasi kwa jumla ya Kshs14 million na wanaendelea kukarabati sehemu ya Naibor. Huyo ndiye mwanakandarasi ambaye Mheshimiwa amesema kwamba anamwaga maram. Nitatuma maofisa wa Wizara kuangalia vile anavyofanya lakini lazima mtu alete maram aweke kwa barabara kabla ya kutandaza. Hakuna njia nyingine. Hiyo murram inahesabiwa ili ijulikane kwamba mwenye kandarasi anafanya vile inavyotakikana yaani anaweka maram ambayo ni kiasi kilichotiwa sahihi katika kandarasi. ... view
• 25 Aug 2010 in National Assembly: Bw. Naibu Spika, nimesema kwamba mwanakandarasi ameanza kazi na hilo pia limedhibitishwa na Mbunge ambaye ameuliza swali hili. Alisema kwamba mwanakandarasi ameanza kumwaga maram kwa barabara hiyo. Hii inamaanisha kwamba kazi imeanza. Hii itasaidia na wananchi hawataendelea kuwa na taabu. Barabara hiyo imeshughulikiwa. Hata hivi majuzi nilienda nchi ambayo tunatarajia kwamba itatufadhili ili tuweze kutengeneza barabara hii. Tulitia sahihi makubaliano ili waje kutusaidia kutengeneza barabara hiyo. Kwa hivyo, ninaamini kwamba hivi karibuni, watakuja na tutangeneza hiyo barabara. view
