• 22 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Hon. Speaker. view
• 22 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: This is a very serious Bill. It is touching on how to empower the gender that has been subdued for quite some time in history. Is the Leader of the Majority Party - the Mover of this important Bill - in order, having spoken well for the female gender, to nominate Hon. Chepkong’a to second this Bill? This is a Bill that ought to be seconded by a lady Member of Parliament. view
• 17 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I oppose this provision particularly Clause 28(a). We are moving from a situation where the Cabinet Secretary is being given discretionary powers to appoint so powerful people. view
• 17 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Secondly, this Authority is composed of so many Government officials. I do not know what meaningful role one representative from the consumer rights will be playing. The board is full of Government representatives. I doubt that we need such an Authority.

• 17 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, if that phrase of “market forces” is not there, I support view
• 17 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. This is the greatest day for the health sector in this country. We are happy we have made substantive progress in pushing this important Bill towards the end. However, it is unfortunate that we are not concluding it today due to constraints of time. I would like to thank the Chairlady of the Committee, Hon. (Ms.) (Dr.) Shaban and our own, Hon. (Prof.) Nyikal with the experience which has been demonstrated.
