• 28 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Yes, very brief. I see a situation where you are out there and a person asks for information and you reply “The law says may, which means I do not have to.” Then what do you need the law for? view
• 28 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, on Clause 10(3)(g), it says “compile and submit to the Commission the preliminary nomination expenditure report and the final campaign expenditure report.” This is in reference to part (3) which says “The referendum expenditure committee referred to in subsection (1)”. 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
• 28 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: My concern was that in referendum, do you have a preliminary nomination for which you shall have a report? view
• 28 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: If it is in order, I would propose that--- view
• 28 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Yes, thank you. view
• 28 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I know I may be taking you back but I still was hoping that hon. Eng. Gumbo did not withdraw.

Members for Homa Bay and Nyeri and the Chair said categorically on the other issue that: “Stick to the issue of the number 20 per cent.” Therefore, I think I would support her request for re-committal. view
• 28 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, on subsection (6), where candidates of political parties have since made spending limits be prescribed, to me that negates everything. This is because I do not see even by what percentage you should spend; I do not see whether somebody will look at whether it was justified. It just says all you need to do is to say why you have to record that you have exceeded. Therefore, I really do not think we need to see it so. My proposal would be to delete subsection (6). view
• 28 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I can withdraw and listen to the rider that he intends to introduce that can take care of my concern. view
