• 18 Apr 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like to thank all the hon. Members who have spoken to this Bill; contributions have concluded with the eminent contributions by Messrs. Muriithi, Kiuna and Mututho. Maj-Gen. Nkaisserry, Mr. ole Ntimama and my Seconder, Mr. Wamalwa. I would like to urge my friend, Mr. Muriithi, that when we come to the Third Reading of the Land Registration Bill, that there is a cocktail of amendments that are coming and that, probably, will be the appropriate time when some of the issues that he has raised about efficiency of registries will need to be ... view
• 18 Apr 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, it looks like many of my colleagues left on the basis that the previous Bill would take a considerable period; but as you can see, the debate has gone on quite fast and quite expeditiously; people were worried about timelines. view
• 18 Apr 2012 in National Assembly: So, I would kindly suggest that probably this is a convenient time--- But I do not excuse the hon. Members who should have moved this particular business; I think many of them expected debate on the previous Bill to go on until, probably, tomorrow. view

• 28 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I will stop. view
• 28 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Question is on the Order Paper, but I thought that now that he read it, I should also read it out before answering. I also seek his indulgence because I thought this answer had already been conveyed to him. However, I beg to reply. (a) I am aware that the proprietors of Bomet Teachers Training College have fenced land meant for St. Michael’s Primary School in Bomet County. However, I am not aware that 33 acres of public land have been fenced off by the same proprietors. According to our records, land designated for St. ... view
• 28 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am grateful to the hon. Member. Indeed, he gave me an extract of the PDP and not the signed and authorized version. I have no problem with that because it is a fair and accurate exposition of what obtains on the ground. If the hon. Member cares to listen, when it comes to development and building of structures, those are regularized by the local council and in this case, it is Bomet Municipal Council. If somebody is constructing any structure, including a fence where it is not required to be, then he should take it ... view
• 28 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: The long term solution is the Land Bill which we now have a lot of time to give more input into. There is a question of your worldview and my worldview on how to deal with land grabbing. Is it something that you want an elaborate process? The Constitution states clearly that unlawfully acquired land has no protection under the Constitution and, therefore, should revert back to the public or the old order to remain, whereby if you grabbed land, for the public to get it back, then you have to go through a very long and tedious process. I ... view
• 28 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: In fact, if need be, to make sure that there is no further delay, I am willing to go to Bomet in the next two weeks with my officers so that the issue of title deeds is no longer in dispute so that the Eldoret Polytechnic can get along with the work of constructing this important institution before you become governor, if at all. view
• 28 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) I am aware that Plot No.LR.1246/1/3/R of 285 acres in Narumoru/Thegu Location belonging to the Agricultural mechanization Service in the Ministry of Agriculture has been sub-divided and transferred to two private developers. The beneficiaries are Phyllis Nduta Mugenyu and Simon Muchiri Wanjau. There is a part of that land which has been designated for a public purpose like the construction of a dam and a school. (b) The sub-division of land into three portions was recommended by the Provincial Commissioner (PC) as the chairman of the provincial plot allocation. (c) The ... view
