• 31 Mar 2022 in National Assembly: Sorry Hon. Speaker, I think I am handling many things at once. Hon. Speaker, I beg to move the following Procedural Motion: view
• 31 Mar 2022 in National Assembly: THAT, notwithstanding the provisions of Standing Order No. 120, this House resolves to reduce the publication period of the Supplementary Appropriation Bill (National Assembly Bill No. 14 of 2022) from 7 days to 1 day. view
• 31 Mar 2022 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, this House is aware that we did the Report on the Supplementary Budget on Tuesday and owing to the urgency of resources needed to be disbursed including the National Government Constituencies Development Fund, Government intervention on fuel and the drought experienced in the country, I beseech this House that we reduce the publication period from seven days to one day. view

• 31 Mar 2022 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I start by thanking you for the Ruling you have given. It is timely, Solomonic and something that I have been grappling with.

We have made the funds available and we will, with the conclusion of this debate and the assent of the Bill, definitely mean the funds should be disbursed to respective constituencies. I understand each constituency is supposed to get about Kshs12 million. view

If we compare the fuel prices between Kenya and our neighbouring countries, we find that our fuel prices are a bit lower. For example, vehicles from Uganda fuel in Kenya. That tells us that fuel prices in Kenya are far much lower. I have already confirmed that in Uganda, it costs about Kshs160 whilst in Kenya, it is about Kshs130. That is courtesy of the fuel stabilisation which from the calculations we got from last week, we spend about Kshs8 billion going to Kshs10 billion. Those are some ... view
• 31 Mar 2022 in National Assembly: There is the issue of pending bills. Pending bills have been a cancer in this country which has brought many companies down; companies that supplied Government and government agencies, but have not been paid. We have tried as much as possible to push for those payments. It is not good enough but, at least, we have tried in this Supplementary Budget. view
• 31 Mar 2022 in National Assembly: The COVID-19 pandemic is still with us. Many people may have forgotten that. There are so many interventions which are being done to address COVID-19 related interventions. view
