• 19 Mar 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, it will be very difficult because it was quoted very widely. The averments, particularly in response to my question as to why the Controller of Budget declined to recognise respective County Assembly Appropriations Act, that did not adhere to fiscal prudence and the ceilings issued by the CRA. Exactly my point is about franchises managing devolution in an adverse way. How can a circular even in the hierarchy of laws, take precedence over an Appropriations Act of a county assembly?

• 19 Mar 2015 in Senate: Yes, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Once it comes by way of report we will, probably, respond more greatly to this. However, the fourth recommendation is the one of interest to me. Ceilings on Recurrent Expenditure for the Financial Year 2014/2015 were lawfully issued, but not binding as per the court ruling.

• 19 Mar 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, just to paraphrase for clarity, if an issue is not binding in law and this Senate has not approved it, why would you make a recommendation as a committee which is inferior to the decisions of this House to approve an illegality or a non-binding document which we have already referred to? view

• 17 Mar 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, this school has continued to experience decline in academic standards. I want to know what the Ministry or the Cabinet Secretary has done to integrate the concerns of the leadership of Garbatulla. Secondly, why is it that there has not been adequate teaching staff causing the school to decline in terms of performance? view
• 17 Mar 2015 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker Sir. I am seeking a further clarification because the first clarification had been sought. Because of the weighty issues being raised by Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr., and since there are other weighty issues that need clarity, maybe the Committee could consider inviting the CS so that they can interrogate her, one on one, so that we do not keep on seeking further clarifications. view
