  • 8 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: (Off record) view
  • 8 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, the mater that was raised by Hon. Kimunya was a critical issue in the sense that this is a multi-stakeholder issue which will not only involve education, but also the security and gender affairs. I hope as the Departmental Committee on Education and Research looks at it, they also bring on board those specific stakeholders. I had raised this matter as an Adjournment Motion, but it is the advisory from your office that this came as a statement. I, however, thought this was a matter that was of interest that should have come in form of an ... view
  • 8 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Much obliged. I am well advised but I wish Hon. Millie could put in a word because she is a senior in these issues. view
  • 30 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I do not have something in the contrary. I would like to support the amendment by Hon. Jude Njomo. The reason is that, currently, we have the policy of ensuring that the youth, persons with disabilities and women, who mostly run SMEs, access 30 per cent of Government tenders. However, you find that they are unable to do a lot of those businesses because they are unable to raise the required capital. What ends up happening is that established businesses take up all the Government tenders using the registration certificates of some youth, women ... view
  • 30 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. The SRC is a very important Commission. In fact, it affects the lives The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view

  • 30 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: First, I would like to start by noting that the sections that were being referred to by Hon. Makali Muli in his presentation were sections listed in a memorandum or a petition that was brought by people who were opposing this nominee. It is not part of the Report, but just quoting the petition that people brought. So, there is no matter necessarily of fact that was stated there or verified. view
  • 30 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, going over that, I would like to state that I support the nomination of many of these nominees, particularly Hon. Dalmas Otieno, who has immense experience in public service. There is an array of experience that these members bring. view
  • 30 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Ms. Lyn Cherop Mengich who is the Chairperson and we are happy that she is a woman, has an MSc in Human Resource. I mentioned Hon. Dalmas Otieno. Dr. Leah Mumbua Munyao comes with a PhD in Education. Mr. John Kennedy Monyoncho has an MBA in Finance. We have competency in education and accountancy. The only profession that is mentioned in the Act and is missing is law. view
  • 30 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: That is why I want to disagree vehemently with the Committee in declining to approve one Ms. Ashubwe who has been nominated by the trade unions. I find the declining of this nominee’s nomination quite baseless. The Committee says that she is a Kenya citizen, holds a bachelors degree in law and another one in education. She meets requirements of Chapter Six. She has never been charged in a court of law or never been dismissed from office for contravention of any part of the law, but then the Committee goes ahead to state that they noted that the nominee ... view
