• 3 May 2016 in National Assembly: This amendment seeks to align the provisions of the sentencing guidelines, which set out the ceiling and not minimums for penalties. We talked about it earlier on. For example, under Clause 34(6): “A person who resists, hinders or obstructs any committee, officer, employee or agent acting in the course of the committee’s or agent’s duty under this section or who willfully fails to comply with any requirements lawfully made thereunder commits an offence and shall, on conviction, be liable to a fine of not less than five thousand shillings for each day or part thereof that the obstruction occurs.” I ... view
• 3 May 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I really want to pursue this matter with my colleague, Hon. Musimba. The fact that the CA has a data centre does not mean that the CA can handle issues to do with petroleum. That is why it is important to create this data centre within the petroleum industry which will deal specifically with the management of petroleum data and information from sedimentary basins and field operations. It is important for Hon. Musimba to agree so that we move faster. It is a small unit within the petroleum industry specifically for that ... view
• 3 May 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 43 of the Bill be amended in Sub-clause (4) by deleting the words “of not less than ten million shillings or to a term of imprisonment of not less than two years or both” and substituting thereof the words “not exceeding twenty million shillings or to imprisonment for a term not exceeding ten years or to both”.

• 3 May 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, the provision in the Bill talks about a fine “not less than Kshs10 million”. We are not talking about small people, but we are talking about big corporations like Tullow Oil who are now doing exploration. If somebody goes to explore without a licence from the Government, what this Bill is saying is that they should be charged a fine of not less than Kshs10 million, which can be Kshs1 billion or Kshs50 billion. We now want to put a curb of not more than Kshs20 million. That is the essence of the amendment. view
• 3 May 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 44 of the Bill be amended in Sub-clause (2) by deleting the word “contract” and substituting therefor the words “petroleum agreement”. The word “contract’’ is part and parcel of the petroleum agreement. We simply want to delete that and replace it with the words “petroleum agreement”. view

• 3 May 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. The concern of the amendment is taken care of, especially sub-section 3. If Members go through the Bill, they will note that Clause 45(3) says:- “Despite sub-section (2), the Cabinet Secretary may execute a petroleum agreement with a contractor after direct negotiations with that contractor on the recommendations of the Advisory Committee- (a) where no bids have been received during the bidding round; (b) where the bids that have been received do not satisfy the minimum criteria for the execution of a petroleum agreement; or, (c) where there is insufficient data in relation to ... view
