• 23 Jul 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like the Prime Minister to tell us what he is doing with regard to putting together the stakeholders in the sector to come up with a national policy and an implementation plan to reduce the carnage. In doing so, I would be seeking that he addresses himself to the following factors: First, the enforcement of the existing legislation. This is a task for the police. The second one, and I wish you to indulge me, if you look at the photos of the vehicle that rolled yesterday, the roof has curved in. I ... view
• 23 Jul 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like him to address the issue of the training standards for PSV drivers in Kenya, given the importance of human life.

• 23 Jul 2009 in National Assembly: But soon after that, and this is justified, by the fourth day, which is Tuesday, 4th August, we shall be looking at four Ministries in one particular Session. By the sixth allotted day, we shall be looking at five Ministries. As those numbers escalate, you will appreciate that hon. Members will want to be given enough time to discuss the various Ministries and, therefore, we will be hard-pressed for time. That does not mean that the House cannot rise earlier. Clearly, when we rise, is a function of when we are done. However, we are taking some insurance cover here ... view
