• 22 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, he should explain why those two Items under Heads 714 and 716 are the same - 2630100; "Current Grants to Government Agencies and Other Levels of Government" The other Item with the same number reads: "Current Grants to Government Agencies and Other Levels of Government". That is not right! view
• 22 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, what I am raising here is actually that, those Item numbers should never be the same. They should progress onwards. If they are the same, it means there is duplication. In accounting practises, it could never be right. view
• 22 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, allow me to congratulate my very good friend, the Minister and his team. It is a job well-done. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am particularly happy with the establishment of the Water Services Boards (WSBs). The reforms in this sector are very important. The Lake Victoria Water Services Board (LVWSB) has made sure that hon. Members and stakeholders are always consulted. That is very important. However, allow me to say that service providers, like Kisumu Water and Sewerage Company (KIWASCO), must ensure that when AFAD finishes their project in Kisumu, they will completely eliminate ... view
• 21 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. Allow me also, reluctantly, to support the Vote of the Ministry of Water and Irrigation. This Ministry has been notorious for being unfair to certain areas. In the name of affirmative action, I will support any action in the Arid and Semi Arid Lands (ASAL). I will support any action in Ukambani, which is largely dry and needs water. Some of these areas are very fertile. If these people, who lead us in Government, had been serious over the years, this country would be self-sufficient in food production. It is pathetic that we ... view
• 21 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the National Irrigation Board (NIB) has been allocated Kshs200 million. The Ahero, Budalangi, Busia and Mwea irrigation schemes were started as pilot schemes. However, they have never gone beyond the pilot stage. What is wrong with this country? Is it my understanding of the English Language, and I got a distinction 1 and a principal 1? I know that a pilot project is something you start so that you can pave way for a bigger project. If the vision of our forefathers, like Tom Mboya, Jaramogi Odinga, among others were to be put in place, ... view
• 21 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Order, hon. Members! I notice that there is a lot of interest and I am anxious to let every hon. Member have a chance to speak. So, if you August 21, 2007 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 3317 could voluntarily reduce the amount of time you use, given the fact that there is a lot of repetition, I would be very grateful. That way, all hon. Members will have a chance to contribute. Proceed, Ms. Karua! view
• 21 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Order, hon. Members! Mr. Kimeto, I will come to you later! Let me give this chance to Mr. Bahari! view
• 21 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Order, Mr. Wetangula! Please, take your seat! I have heard you! Mr. Wetangula, you are an old hon. Member of this House and you have had an occasion to sit in this Chair. You know very well that there is no hon. Member who can order the Chair. But the Chair has to listen! view
• 21 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Order, Mr. Wanjala! You know the Chair has powers. If you do not know, refer to Standing Order No.1. Please, leave the Minister to take notes! Proceed, Prof. Olweny! view
• 21 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Order, Prof. Olweny! Are you going to respect the agreement between hon. Members that you are going to limit your time so that other hon. Members could have a chance to contribute to the Vote? view
