• 25 Sep 2013 in National Assembly: In simple language! view
• 19 Sep 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, in the absence of the Chairperson and the Vice-Chairperson, I think I will give a commitment on behalf of the Committee that we shall give a response in two weeks time. view
• 19 Sep 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, two weeks is even too short to do this. Maybe I should even be extending it to three weeks. The reason I gave is that the committee will be meeting the Cabinet Secretary in charge of labour and social welfare next week on Tuesday. We could then raise these issues with him and then have time to prepare a report. I welcome hon. Mwangangi Kilonzo to join us next week when the Cabinet Secretary is meeting the Committee. view
• 17 Sep 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this very important debate.

• 6 Aug 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I am happy to have my amendment dropped since hon. Langat’s amendment is carried, although I thought that we were voting for him to withdraw Item No.30, and then we contribute to the remaining amendment. Have we carried the entire amendment?

• 6 Aug 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I am guided and I am happy to drop my amendment, because my intention has really been taken care of. I would like to thank the Committee for listening to the voice of the women of this country and granting us this bigger “ ugali” than the other ugali. I really thank them for exempting sanitary towels and tampons from this tax. view
