  • 5 Aug 2020 in National Assembly: served between 1984 and 2001, this amount we are increasing is basically not to take care of any luxury, but to take care of their basic needs. As we look at Hon. Mwadime’s Bill in the afternoon, that is the amendment No.3 of the… view
  • 5 Aug 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. One of the things that we will be looking at is how to set up a contributory scheme for medical purposes for MPs who served in the past and also the ones serving at the very moment so that we can cover that as well. On the concern of Hon. Duale, and I will avail to him the comments that were made by the Treasury to the Committee, the Treasury, as Hon. Mbadi has correctly pointed out, was concerned about the arrears from 2010 which amount to Ksh1.15 billion. Under the circumstances, this was ... view
  • 30 Jul 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I beg to move: THAT, the Bill be amended in Clause 2 in the proposed definition of the phrase “medium enterprise” by deleting paragraph (a) and substituting therefor the following new paragraph— (a) whose annual turnover is between five million shillings and one hundred million shillings;” This is basically to clean up the clause. Currently, the Bill defines a medium enterprise as that whose annual turnover does not exceed Ksh100 million, but it does not provide a lower limit. The upper limit for a small enterprise is Ksh5 million. So, we are just clarifying ... view

  • 30 Jul 2020 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move: THAT, the Bill be amended in Clause 3 in the proposed new subsection (3A) by deleting the word “Parliament” appearing immediately after the word “when” and substituting therefor the words “either House of Parliament”. view
  • 30 Jul 2020 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, this is another clean-up for consistency because what the published Bill says; “Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection 2, the Cabinet Secretary shall with respect to credit guarantees extended to private borrowers who are micro, small or medium enterprises provide the information specified in Section 59 A (2) when Parliament makes a request” but the preceding clause speaks to, when any of the Houses of Parliament or either of the Houses of Parliament. So, we are just cleaning this clause so that it is consistent with the preceding clause. view

  • 30 Jul 2020 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move: THAT, the Bill be amended in Clause 4 - (a) by deleting the proposed sub-section (5) and substituting therefor the following new sub-sections- (5) Notwithstanding the provisions of sub-section (2)(c), the Cabinet Secretary may guarantee credit which is extended to a private borrower, for enterprise development or such other purpose as the Cabinet Secretary may prescribe, where the borrower does not have sufficient security. (6a) The Cabinet Secretary may only guarantee credit which is extended to a borrower under sub-section (5), if the borrower- (a) is a micro, small or medium enterprise; ... view
  • 30 Jul 2020 in National Assembly: Clause 4 as drafted has some drafting challenges because it does not come out expressly. If you look at Clause 4 (5), it says, “Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection (2) (c), in the case of private borrower to whom credit is extended for enterprise development or other purpose as may be prescribed by the Cabinet Secretary and does not have sufficient security for the loan, the Cabinet Secretary shall not guarantee the credit extended to such a borrower under subsection (1) unless…” What we want to say is actually what the Cabinet Secretary may do, not what he may not. ... view
