  • 15 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, the Leader of the Majority Party, apart from being hard working, he is very keen. So, he sees many things. But, on this one, we just did away with the election panel when we were talking about the appointment of the Vice Chancellor. We said that we do not want this panel. We said we want to have the Public Service Commission. On this one, especially the explanation the Leader of the Majority Party has given and he has read through the sections… I did not have the Act. Hon. Ichungw’ah is right in his clean ... view
  • 15 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: (Homa Bay (CWR), ODM): There has to be a reason you are given a Letter of Interim Authority and finally a charter. The transition is because maybe the CUE is still checking you from all angles to see if you are suited to become a full university with a charter. Now, if you can do everything that a university with a charter can do then it begs the question why you are given the Letter of Interim Authority and why you are finally given a charter.

  • 15 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: On this, Hon. Ichung’wah is truly from Kiambu. This is perhaps the reason Hon. Ichung’wah has been here the whole time. He wanted to do this particular one. The others were just hoodwinkers and to tell us he is cleaning up. view
  • 15 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. view
  • 15 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, with due respect to the Majority Leader, in committees we listen to Cabinet Secretaries and stakeholders. There is no time on the Floor of this House when a Committee has been asked to produce a letter from a Cabinet Secretary stating their position. What we have had here is a report of the committees. What is tabled is the report and recommendations. At no time have we demanded that a Committee Member moving amendments comes with a letter from a Cabinet Secretary. The Majority Leader is applying double standards. At some point when it favours him, ... view
  • 15 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. The amendment which the Committee has proposed is to delete Section 6(d) which in the Act states: “(d) Seven persons appointed by the Cabinet Secretary as follows- (i) two persons, one of whom shall be of the opposite gender, nominated by the most representative employers’ organisation with knowledge and experience in matters relating to employers to represent employers in Kenya; (ii)Two persons, one of whom shall be of the opposite gender nominated by the most representative workers’ organisation… (iii) Three persons, one of whom shall be of the opposite gender, not being public officers ... view
  • 15 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: That is what is in the current law. The amendment by the Committee is to delete it and replace it with the following: “(i) Five persons not being public officers nor employees or directors of any company appointed by the Cabinet Secretary.” What are they doing? They have removed workers and employers and are now introducing five people brought solely by the Cabinet Secretary. This is what the Committee did not agree with and the Chair is proposing we delete it and have consultations if we need to make changes. That is the position. view
  • 15 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. T.J was absolutely right in the spirit of Section 7(3). It says that notwithstanding the provisions of any other written law or articles of association establishing and governing a board, the President may, if at any time it appears to him a board has failed to carry out its functions in national interest, revoke the appointment of any member of a board and may himself nominate a new member. Hon. T.J is our Chief Justice). We call him C.J. because of the way he knows those things off the top of his head. Looking at the way this board ... view

  • 15 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, the toll begins to take when the hours get to where they are. He begins to recline slowly. That is why he was not rising. view
