• 23 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, this is from Dr. Nuh. I am not basically moving as it is in the Order Paper, but--- view
• 23 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, in Clause 56. view
• 23 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, it will be so unfortunate. He was feeling very unwell. view
• 23 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I find his proposal very reasonable because the most serious punishment that one can get is on account of dismissal, yet you can appeal on all other grounds except when you have been dismissed. So, I think this should not be exempted. It should be eligible for appeal in the appropriate circumstances. view
• 23 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: I am supporting, Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir. view
• 23 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, if you look at the marginal notes, you will see that they read grounds for suspension arising from conflict or war. We also have (b) which deals with “in any other exceptional circumstances”. I find this a little bit too dangerous because a County Government should only be suspended for specific reasons and exceptional circumstances. If you do not give any indication as to what constitutes exceptional circumstances, that would be dangerous. However, I am aware that in the Draft Bill for Public Finance, there are provisions that may be relevant in terms of the ... view
• 22 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I also wish to express my condolence to the family, country, President and Prime Minister for the passing away of a great Kenyan.

For a period of three days we were in Ugenya and parts of Western Province. It did not occur to me at that time that he had worked in that area and knew Busia District and Siaya District very well. He could remember very many people in the area, the challenges in the area ... view
• 22 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I think that it will be very difficult to determine how the House can move on this matter because we do not have any material before the Committee or before us. That put us in a very difficult position. But as far as I know, the relevant legislation requires the Committee to place two documents before this Parliament. The first document is the report of the Commission. That report must come before this House without any alteration. Accompanying that report would be the recommendations. Those recommendations are distinct and separate from ... view
• 22 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: The only point, and again that is very difficult for me to say, at this moment, before I see the report and the recommendations, is that the authority as to delimitation is an authority that is vested on the Commission alone. The Constitution spells out very clearly in Article 89, how you can review the decision of that Commission and that is by filing a petition in the High Court. That is the only way we can review the decision of the Commission. So, I think what Parliament is doing is, probably, to give a little bit of information to ... view
