• 26 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: I support. view
• 25 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I think the Minister has to be commended for the work he has done. It is important to note that part of the objective of this Bill is to bring the various statutes that were applicable to matters of citizenship, immigration, registration of persons and all that to be managed under a service; the objects are quite clear, as contained in the preamble to the Bill. view
• 25 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, now that it will become a service, just like the other services and commissions that we are establishing, the point about it is to provide and deliver services more efficiently, and to make Kenyans feel that they belong somewhere, because once you are a citizen, you have rights that are spelt out not just in the Constitution, but also in the Bill that the Minister moved yesterday. view
• 25 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: So, without further ado, I beg to second. view
• 25 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to second and commend the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance for the work he has done. There are many Bills which are required in the financial sector. The importance of this Bill is that in the process of implementation of the Constitution, we need to have a law enacted by Parliament for the purpose of loans for which the national Government is required to give guarantees. view
• 25 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: That being the case, I will follow the footsteps of the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance, second the Bill and urge hon. Members to support it, as it is important. view
• 25 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: With those remarks, I beg to second. view
• 25 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I support this very strongly. The number of commissioners that we are having in this many commissions may turn the Government into a government by commissions in numbers and in decision-making. I think this will send the right signal. The Constitution talks about three to nine commissioners. So, I think the number three is a good number. view
• 25 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I just want to add this point because I think it is very important. You cannot give somebody security of tenure while the Constitution does not give it. That is a very important point that the chairman is making. view
• 25 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I beg to move that the Committee doth report to the House its consideration of The Citizenship and Immigration Bill, Bill No.40 of 2011 and its approval thereof with amendment. view
