• 11 Dec 2014 in National Assembly: I recollect very well after 911in the United States of America (USA) that they were able to sit down and re-assess their security laws at that particular time. That is why 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
• 11 Dec 2014 in National Assembly: they came up with the Patriot Act. Ever since 911, you can bear with me that acts of terrorism in the USA have reduced tremendously. The only thing we need to do as a House is to sit and look at the laws very soberly, indeed, that would make the Government not be able to fight terror. All the things that we have to do is to make sure that we de-politicise security. The minute we put politics in security matters, we will be heading the wrong direction. I can assure you that both CORD and Jubilee must fight together ... view
• 11 Dec 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, there are quite a number of others as well including the Evidence Act. Today, if you go to court with some materials which are electronic in nature, they will not be accepted. What we want to do is to make sure that they are accepted in future such that even a video clip can be able to have a terrorist put in for life. view
• 11 Dec 2014 in National Assembly: Other issues that are in this Bill and which must be looked into seriously is the National Intelligence Service Act. We know very well that this Bill seeks to amend that Act by empowering police officers to be able to stop and detain persons whom they witness engaging in serious crimes. This particular amendment will also provide for the undertaking of covert operations for purposes of neutralising threats. I want to urge Members to recollect exactly what happened and how Osama Bin Laden was killed. Osama was--- view
• 28 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: On a point of information! view
• 28 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, as I inform my good friend, hon. Aden Duale, please, allow me to also take this opportunity recognise and welcome students and pupils from various primary and secondary schools that we have in the galleries and, more so, those from constituency – Irigiro Primary School. view
• 28 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I would like to inform the Leader of the Majority Party and, indeed, the entire House that in the Committee of Energy, Information and Communication, which I am privileged to chair, we are unique in a way because we do not operate on party lines. The CORD hon. Members in this House will bear me witness that we approach issues as Members of Parliament and not on the basis of party lines. Therefore, there is absolutely no problem, even with the new hon. Members who are coming in, because we will continue doing what we have always done. view
• 28 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you. view
• 28 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, hon. Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. From the outset, let me say that I want to support this Adjournment Motion. Let me first start by thanking the leadership of this House. All through the Session we have had good working relations in the House, specifically on the issue of committee staffing. We used to have a lot of problems in our committees with respect to staff. We can now comfortably say that we have adequate staff. Perhaps, the only thing remaining is capacity building, which I am sure is being done, and I think that ... view
• 28 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, let me quickly talk about the issue of power and specifically Power bills that we have. Kenyans are told tired of high electricity bills that they pay to Kenya Power. If you look at your electricity bill, every time you get yours it is extremely high. Hon. Speaker, this morning we had a meeting with Electricity Regulatory Commission (ERC) and we were very categorical to them that they must start working towards making sure specifically power bills come down. We know for sure that the ERC controls the prices of oil or Petrol. view
