21 Oct 2014 in National Assembly:
Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. If you look at the Bill, you will find that it provides very clearly that upon the enactment of this legislation everybody who is under its ambit should undergo some credibility test, if I can call it so. This is to ensure that there is a way in which the country can weed out quacks and people who masquerade as professionals in this area. I think this will be very welcome. This is The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained ...

21 Oct 2014 in National Assembly:
We need to look at way in which people make money or ways in which our youth can get jobs. We also need to look at ways in which we can ensure that there is proper distribution of investment. The best way to do that is to have bodies that are self- financing. If you look at the Bill, it says very clearly that this is not a body that is coming to stifle or get money from the taxpayer. Of course, I would like to imagine because they are dealing with money that they can also raise their own ...

21 Oct 2014 in National Assembly:
Now that we are also known as a country to have a very well developed human resource, it is incumbent upon us to pass as many regulatory bodies with regard to professions as possible so that we are able to standardize the manner of operation. This is because this country has also suffered a lot by having quacks and people who have made many Kenyans lose their hard-earned money just because they are not properly regulated.

15 Oct 2014 in National Assembly:
Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this Motion and say that the schools that are attending Parliament today are doing it for the first time in the history of this Republic. It is important also that we make our Parliament disability sensitive because it has been very difficult to come on board. Hon. Deputy Speaker, it is also true that motorcycles are causing a lot of disabilities.

localities to which vehicles cannot go, are useful. Therefore, they can be misused for any purpose. Hon. Deputy Speaker, Africa is taking after Asia. If you go to Asia you will find that in many countries motorcycles have been properly institutionalized, although they too are complaining. They call it trafficking, for example in Cambodia, where I was some time back. I am not sure whether our traffic laws, for example, actually are amenable to offences such as those caused by motorcyclists, or drivers for that matter. Hon. Deputy Speaker, you will agree with me that because of poor training these ...

27 Aug 2014 in National Assembly:
Hon. Chairlady, I support this amendment because sometimes the media is very intrusive with regard to the details. If we all remember the case of Ms. Kerubo and Ms. Nancy Baraza, it was one of those that you could see how it can be used against even a person who holds a high public office. However, we need to expressly mention social media as part of the media even if it may be captured by inference as other types of media. That is now being used so commonly and it is also used to expose victims. For example, there were ...

Thank you, hon. Speaker. I am not hon. Macharia. Hon. Macharia in Kikuyu means to search for; maybe, it means searching for my people – the ones I represent – I will accept it.
