• 19 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, as I have just pointed out, there were four Bills in respect to which the Attorney-General was supposed to respond; the Statutory Instruments Bill which he has not said anything about. view
• 19 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Attorney-General admits that he did not submit the Bill to the President for signing within the time allowed; therefore, the provisions under which he is required to submit the Bill to the President have lapsed. If that is the position, what is the purpose of sending it to him again this afternoon if, indeed, the Bill has become law by operation of the specific provisions of the Constitution? Why is he not sending it to the Government Printer to publish it as a Bill that has taken effect because of failure by the President, or ... view
• 19 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is it in order for Prof. Muigai to purport to act on the advice of Senior Counsel, Mr. M. Kilonzo, and mislead this House that, in fact, Chapter 8 is suspended when we knows it is suspended only partially?

• 19 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I appreciate the issue that hon. Odhiambo-Mabona raised. I was on the Chair this morning when the House gave leave to the Government to introduce The County Governments Public Finance Management Transition Bill and none of them was there. That business was removed from the Order Paper after the House had given leave for the Mover to move the Bill. Where were they? That is the question that Members want to know. view
• 19 Dec 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, on behalf of the people of Central Imenti and the larger Meru in general who have overwhelmingly supported him with their votes over the last ten years, I want to record my appreciation to the President for an exceptionally meritorious parliamentary service. As the President enters the history books as the longest serving Member of Parliament he will go home a happy man, in the sense that he has achieved what many of us thought was not possible within our life time, that is the promulgation of the new Constitution. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I had the privilege ... view
