• 27 Nov 2013 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, we had actually discussed this matter with the Chairman of the Committee on Legal Affairs and Human Rights and I am in a position to accommodate him. So, the Statement can actually come next week, on Wednesday afternoon. view
• 27 Nov 2013 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I will not mind if it can come on Wednesday or even Thursday, if the former Attorney General feels that having these two Statements on the same day may not be quite appropriate. So, it can come on Thursday next week. view
• 27 Nov 2013 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I have a problem with the answer to this Statement that I had requested because, one, the Chairperson of the Committee has just dealt with the question of one bodyguard, while the Statement I requested related to the entire security personnel attached to the Senator. He has given confirmation that the bodyguard has been made available following the withdrawal. So, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, in view of the fact that this answer is not complete and, secondly, in view of the fact that the Cabinet Secretary (CS) was--- Because this Statement was requested on the 12th ... view
• 27 Nov 2013 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, my only problem with that is that yesterday’s meeting was a good meeting, but it is not part of the official proceedings of the House; it was not a formal sitting of this House. This House is entitled to an answer in Plenary; whereas it may mean a repetition of the answer that was given yesterday, but I think it is for purposes of having a proper record, because it may relate to Sen. Muthama, The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be ... view
• 27 Nov 2013 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I am prepared to go by your directive, that a comprehensive answer be brought when the report is tabled before the House. But just to emphasize the seriousness of this matter, in this reply, the CS has actually spelt out the circumstances under which a bodyguard may be withdrawn from a Very Important Person (VIP) or a Member of Parliament (MP) for that matter; and they range from circumstances in which a Member is convicted of a criminal offence; or has committed an offence under Section 103 of the Police Act; and so on, and so ... view
• 27 Nov 2013 in Senate: Two weeks, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. view
• 21 Nov 2013 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, thank you. I also thank Sen. Abdirahman. Before I congratulate you on that communication, I really want to congratulate your humility. Having the head of an important organ, a separate distinct and an independent organ of the Government appearing before another organ which is separate and distinct, being the judiciary, and sitting there throughout the proceedings without uttering a word but hoping that justice will be done in the circumstances, I think was a demonstration of the humility with which you hold the office. I will always remember that because I know a lot of people who ... view
• 21 Nov 2013 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I was looking behind where my Chair, Sen. Haji is sitting. There was a Statement that you gave some direction on; this is the matter concerning Sen. Muthama. I hope he has the Statement ready. view
• 21 Nov 2013 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. On account of what the Senator for Kajiado has just brought out, I want to bring the attention of the Senate to Article 153 of the Constitution, as read with Article 153. If you look at Articles 152 and 155, in relation to the functions of this House, I think that it is for a good cause that when Parliament is dealing with the Executive, the responsibility is with the Cabinet Secretary. You do not find similar provisions when you relate to Principal Secretaries. I invite the Speaker to look at Article ... view
