• 1 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, on the same issue, I support the two hon. Members who have spoken before me but in the light of the now conclusive finding by a majority of the Kenyan Court of Appeal that the date for elections is in March next year, all attention and eyes are now focused on the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC). We have a collective responsibility, as the House, to ensure that preparations are in accordance with the law and the IEBC gets support of this House. In order to achieve that purpose, the two Committees that are responsible need ... view

• 31 Jul 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. This is with regard to the first communication that you made where you are welcoming us to this penultimate sitting of the Tenth Parliament. When we adjourned last time, anticipation was that we will resume in the New Chamber and I expected that you would have indicated to us in your communication when we shall begin sitting in that Chamber because it is relevant. Perhaps you can indicate to us when we can look forward to sitting in that Chamber. view
• 31 Jul 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, given the number of cases where these applications for payment of medical bills are made and the manner in which they are dealt with on ad hoc basis, could the Ministry consider developing a policy that will guide those who seek assistance in this form so that they know that when they apply for medical support from the Ministry, they have to meet a certain criteria so that the allegations of corruption and nepotism or discrimination do not arise when this money is being waived? Could you let us know when you will develop this policy and ... view
• 31 Jul 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. On more than one occasion, you have reminded these Ministers here starting with the Leader of Government Business that there is a collective responsibility on each and every one of them to ensure that they are accountable to this House by answering Questions.

It behoves upon each of them by the Constitution itself. view
