• 2 May 2019 in National Assembly: (Homa Bay CWR, ODM: I am blowing the microphone like in the village. My amendment is similar to the one that has been moved by the Chairman. Therefore, mine automatically drops if his is carried. So, I support his and say that 35 per cent is good. I also wanted to make a comment, for the record, on the issue Hon. T.J. had raised earlier and which you already spoke to. I just want to express my own frustration. Even in the last Parliament, when committees deliberated amendments and then they came to the Floor, chairs would be intimidated into ... view
• 2 May 2019 in National Assembly: I support that amendment because we are here in the spirit of discouraging only that it may be a double edged sword. People could be selling their land and others taking the entire school fees to bet. That is the only contradiction. I just want to express my concern, otherwise, I support. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 2 May 2019 in National Assembly: What is wrong in just introducing goat and camel milk into the definition of milk in the Bill? view
• 2 May 2019 in National Assembly: I am looking for the amendment that is being deleted, but it does not exist. The Chairman has said that he is deleting the proposed amendment to Section 19(v), but it is not in the Bill. view
• 2 May 2019 in National Assembly: What are we deleting? He has withdrawn an amendment to a section which does not exist. view
• 2 May 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Kimunya has addressed it. I was frantic because there was a move to withdraw that amendment which is important in concluding what Hon. Millie had introduced earlier. view
• 2 May 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, what the Chair is saying makes sense. First of all, this is abrupt. Secondly, many employers are already providing medical covers for their employees including here in Parliament. Even employers I have worked for before are providing medical covers. As an employer, you provide a medical cover, and then you contribute to NHIF and contribute 1.5 per cent to housing levy. We must be fair as a House and promote investment so that we are not sending away investors when they think about the cost. view
• 2 May 2019 in National Assembly: It is now the right time for the flower girls to show up, as Hon. Duale called us. I was very busy defending his camels and camel milk so he should withdraw. I want to support the position of the Committee because workers contribute to this Fund. Employers are the ones who are charged with the responsibility of deducting monies for remittance to this Fund. Therefore, trying to eliminate them all just by one single amendment does not make sense. I support the Committee fully. This is the most prudent thing to do. view
• 25 Apr 2019 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. view
• 25 Apr 2019 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Hon. Thuku is my good friend and I know he is a first time Member of this House. But, is he really in order to mislead this House that there is a side of this House that is supposed to be checking the Government and has gone to bed with it? We know that under the new constitutional dispensation the responsibility to oversee the Government or the Executive lies with the entire National Assembly and the Senate. I would like to imagine that maybe he is still orienting himself. I thought ... view
