  • 20 Mar 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chair, there is a difference between mental illness and psychosocial disability. There is a difference between mental capacity and legal capacity. In terms of international practice, I am referring to Article 12 of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities which clearly recognizes that persons who fall under the ambit of this broad definition of mental condition, including persons with psychosocial disabilities - please note, not mental illness - will be deprived of their right to freely give consent.

  • 19 Mar 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker. I rise to support this Motion. I want to recapitulate what I said yesterday, that if you look at the amount of money we are proposing to go to the counties--- The idea of having Kshs1.4 billion given to village polytechnics is very welcome. If you calculate you will see that every county will receive Kshs29.2 million. This will also take care of young people who drop from school. The statistics show that if you look at the year 2005, pupils who showed up for Class One were 1.3 million, but those who finished Class Eight ... view

However, if you followed the conversation on the issue of wage ... view
  • 19 Mar 2014 in National Assembly: programmes to ensure that the Budget is pragmatic, we should put money where the mouths of Kenyans are. Hon. Speaker, even when you look at this Budget Policy Statement, it is important to look at the revenue raising measures. Statistics also show that the entities that pay taxes to Government are only 1.1 million people. If you tabulate that you will see that the people who are employed by Government are 700,000; then you will see that we have a very small private sector. However, we have failed as a House to legislate on how to actually benefit from capital ... view
