• 10 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Yes, hon. Speaker. Not too much of a hullaballoo. I want you to be clear because the House will recall, through the HANSARD, that I was the one who raised that issue when the Committee on Security led by the former Member of Parliament hon. Kapondi, tabled the names of the members of the Police Service Commission. You could not be more right that your predecessor gave a ruling. The way you are saying it, hon. Members, probably, need you to just explain it in our language. That is because even I had to jog my memory and it is ... view

• 10 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, you recall that last week on Thursday, I raised an issue which you promised to give a ruling today which I think is of a constitutional nature about the Budget Policy Statement (BPS). The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 10 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Over the weekend there were many stories from Members of Parliament reacting to that particular ruling that I had sought from you. It has to do with an additional Kshs3 billion in this Budget that Members of that Committee have arm twisted the Executive to give them to do some public hearing about the Budget.

• 10 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Just a short one. I did not mean to interrupt you, but the substantive Speaker has already made a ruling on this issue. It is wrong to debate it away from the logic of the ruling of the Speaker. I wish to inform my colleague, who was not here, that the Speaker said that the action by the Budget and Appropriations Committee is taken care of by Article 221.Your action can only be after two months and can only be about the estimates. Those are the estimates you can move around. A ruling has been made, unless we are going ... view
• 10 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker. Hon. Duale does not cease to amaze me. The issue is very clear. If you listen to the guidance by the Speaker, then to the interventions by hon. Mbadi and hon. Duale, hon. Duale has just said the truth of what is in the minds of the Committee. Hon. Mbadi wanted to be within reason. The Speaker even said that he was struggling to make it sensible. Let me thank the Committee. view
• 10 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: You will get your chance, hon. Mbadi. view
