• 31 May 2022 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I would also like to join you and the entire House in mourning the loss of our very distinguished colleague, Hon. Kamoti. It is refreshing when we come to the House and find there are many Members whose countenance, manner of engagement and deliberation reflects humility, leadership and professionalism. On behalf of the ODM Party that enabled me to join the National Assembly and had the honour to work with him, I would like to convey sincere condolences to the family. May his soul rest in peace. Thank you, Hon. Speaker. view
• 31 May 2022 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. From the outset I would like to support the Report because of the manner in which the key issues were presented by the Deputy Speaker and the core concerns are fundamental. Looking through it, there has been very clear progression of adjusting and taking into account the very fundamental principles that would allow Hon. Members to discharge their duty. In particular, I would like to single out, as I noticed during the 8th Parliament, that the idea of ensuring that the female Members of Parliament could not come in with their bags was realised in the ... view
• 31 May 2022 in National Assembly: two Committees – and I can see my Chair, the Hon. Member for Mavoko is here – that there has been recognition that, as we serve as Members serve, there are times when it has been recognised that what is useful is the capacity and ability to look at Members in terms of their representation and duties, and not what would be party affiliations which falls outside the committee. I am glad that the Standing Orders recognise this. Allow me to thank you, Hon. Speaker, as we come to the end of this 12th Parliament, for the very democratic, wise ... view
• 31 May 2022 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me the opportunity to second this Motion. Indeed, as it has been indicated by the Deputy Speaker earlier on, the PACPAC, under the leadership of Hon. Wandayi, has done more than what we expected. As I second this Motion, it is an honour that this is the way we are winding up, as we approach the end of the 12th Parliament. As Hon. Wandayi and Hon. Deputy Speaker indicated, as Parliament, we can confirm that we have undertaken the mandate of reviewing the financial statements of Ministries, State Departments, The electronic version ... view
• 31 May 2022 in National Assembly: commissions and independent offices as we perform our oversight role. We can see this in this Report. As Hon. Wandayi indicated, we will indeed catch up with the Reports of the Auditor- General. view
• 31 May 2022 in National Assembly: I commend the Committee and ask the House to look at this Report. We can see that Article 229 (8) of the Constitution requires that, within three months of receiving audit reports, the PAC should debate and consider them and then report to the House the action that they consider appropriate. As we look through the Report, we will see the unwavering commitment, the fidelity to the constitutional mandate that is given to the Committee and its responsibility of holding individual officers to account for acts of commission and omission. This Report underlies that. view
• 31 May 2022 in National Assembly: If I make it to the 13th Parliament, by God’s grace, this is the Committee I will find myself in. With those remarks, I second the Motion. view
• 31 May 2022 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. From the outset, I support the Prompt Payment Bill (Senate Bill No. 16 of 2021). This Bill seeks to very specifically address a very urgent concern with regard to the frustration suppliers, contractors and all those who give their time to provide services go through. I particularly thank the Committee for how they have enabled specificity to the very issue that we are dealing with. A number of times we can have Bills and many pronouncements but we find that they become a big challenge in implementation when they are not so clearly specified. ... view
• 19 May 2022 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I would like to support this amendment in particular because it is providing room for public audit which is an eye on the institutions that handle children. We have had a lot of outcry because there was no avenue for audit. I want to support this and say it is the way that we need to go to ensure that there is accountability. view
