• 1 Dec 2011 in National Assembly: That is what you are substantiating. So, can you substantiate that because the documents that you have tabled are not substantiation? Can you substantiate that before I can permit you to proceed further? view
• 1 Dec 2011 in National Assembly: Minister, let me just advice you. The Public Accounts Committee is a Committee of this House and you are now before the House. Just table what you have, to answer his Question. view
• 1 Dec 2011 in National Assembly: Minister, indeed, you have not. An undertaking to table documents before the PAC is not answering a Question before the House. You can table the documentation that the hon. Member needs. If it can go to the PAC, then it can come to this House. So, please, table the documentation that you have so that we can go to the next Order or business. view
• 1 Dec 2011 in National Assembly: What I understand the Minister is doing and is perfectly entitled to do is what we request in this House everyday that Questions be referred to Committees. He is offering to appear before the PAC with his officers with all the documentation that you require. To me, that sounds very reasonable. view
• 1 Dec 2011 in National Assembly: What happens in events like this is that, when I refer a matter to a Committee, I defer the Question so that when they come before the Committee and you are not satisfied, when the Question is reinstated, you can say what happened. So, you cannot have it both ways. You cannot ask the Minister questions here and take a second bite at your Committee. So, choose the one you want. Do you want the matter to go to the Committee or should it be exhausted here? view
• 1 Dec 2011 in National Assembly: Since you had not asked for the documentation, it is not reasonable to ask him to table them now because he has tabled accounts. If you want documentation, and he is saying that he is ready to provide them but on another day. Today, he came to present the accounts which he has done. So, you can interrogate those accounts. If you want to table them now, he has clearly indicated that he cannot do so because he was not expecting that he would be requested to table documents other than the accounts. Really, you are asking for too much ... view
• 1 Dec 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Kabogo, you are the one who mentioned Mr. Njogu and he was perfected entitled to. There is no such thing as a rider to a question. If you ask a question, then do it directly! view
• 1 Dec 2011 in National Assembly: Just make your point! You were on your question! view
• 1 Dec 2011 in National Assembly: Before you answer that question. Mr. Minister, you indicated that the team travelled using Kenya Airways. Let me hear your answer first. view
• 1 Dec 2011 in National Assembly: Your answer to this House and the nation was that the team travelled by air. So, were there members of the team who did not travel by air and why was there no disclosure on that part? view
