On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. My point of order is for the purposes of the HANSARD. When Sen. Murkomen asked Sen. Lesuuda to second, she did not need to bow. At least, for the purposes of the HANSARD she should have said: “I second.”

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I thank my Chairman for moving the Motion and I am here to second it. Just to highlight, according to the Sixth Schedule of the Constitution – Commission for Implementation of the Constitution - Section 5(7) says very clearly that:- “The Commission for the Implementation of the Constitution shall stand dissolved five years after it is established or at the full implementation of this Constitution as determined by Parliament, whichever is sooner, but the National Assembly may, by resolution, extend its life.” Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, it envisages that the CIC shall stand dissolved at the ...

On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. It is in public record that the CIC itself has not sought an extension of their term. Is the Senator in order to insinuate that this Commission deliberately decided not to finish its work so that it can ask for an extension?

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, thank you for the opportunity. In my assessment on where governors are going wrong, this is undeniably the biggest function that has been devolved. If this is the biggest function that has been devolved, it only follows that this should constitute the highest bulk of their budgets. Most of them are not able to draw that correlation. You look into many of the county budgets and hardly do you see that health reflects the highest expenditure. I think they are setting themselves up for a crisis when they do not give commensurate allocations of their county ...

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, since you acknowledged that what Sen.(Prof.) Anyang'-Nyong'o has raised is a legitimate point and it is a matter that concerns all of us and our morality today is challenged because our staff have not been paid for two to five months, is there a way that, through our Standing Orders, he can prosecute that matter, so that we can compel the authorities to pay our people? It is unfair, wrong and immoral.

Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, whereas, I have no issues on the fact that the Constitution says Bills concerning counties can originate from the Senate, and any Bill can originate from the National Assembly, I listened with dismay. I want the Chair to advise the Cabinet secretary (CS) in charge of Health, that where substances of functions are devolved, it is only prudent that those Bills are brought for the determination of this House first. When I hear her say that the proposed Health law is currently under review in the National Assembly whereas we know the bulk of the function ...
