• 26 Oct 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to thank the Assistant Minster for that answer, but even as the Ministry awaits the funds that they have requested from the Treasury so that they can recruit staff for the counties, the Ministry certainly has officers who are already working within the Board. Could he inform this House what achievements those officers who are already in employment have made in terms of any prosecution? My question is informed by the fact that even when he will have recruited officers in all the counties, the prosecution will not be done by the Ministry. It ... view
• 26 Oct 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. The wrong things that are being shown to our pupils are a concern for us as a nation. While the Assistant Minister has made an effort to answer this Question, I think he is still dodging the real issue. If there is a law that was enacted by this House – I do not know how many years back – what the Assistant Minister is expected to tell us is how it is being implemented. It is not the staff who are going to be employed that are going to implement ... view
• 26 Oct 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. The Assistant Minister has given us the Act that is in play, when he is dealing with the issues of licensing of movies or films. But the answer that he gave us talks about Films and Stage Plays Act, Cap.222. Given the fact that he is labouring with answers to questions that have been raised by various hon. Members, would I be in order to ask that this Question be deferred, so that he can come up with answers that will give us the criteria of banning and rating? That way, ... view
• 26 Oct 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, any form of discrimination is not allowed under our Constitution. This programme has made it very difficult for some of us to represent our elderly within our constituencies. We are in constituencies that also have people who are old. Could the Minister inform this House what immediate steps the Government is taking to ensure that discrimination of older people even in Ndaragwa Constituency does not continue? Why is it that you picked older people in Juja and left out the ones in Ndaragwa or any other constituency for that matter? view

• 26 Oct 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, you realise that you even had difficulties holding all those documents together in your hands. The documents are so voluminous that it will not be possible for any Member of Parliament to go through them and be able to interrogate this issue substantially. Given the fact that this issue has raised a lot of public interest and the nation is watching to see what we are going to say on these documents, would I be in order to ask that this matter be deferred to next week, Wednesday, so that hon. Members can have adequate time to ... view
• 26 Oct 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I was not sent by anybody here. However, I have a right to consult and concur with the hon. Member. What we are actually doing is that we would want to reserve our comments to Wednesday, next week. It is not a secret. view
• 7 Sep 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we appreciate the work that is being done by the Ministry and particularly the REA. However, there are still constituencies with lines that are much longer than the annual allocation to every constituency. Could the Assistant Minister inform the House what criteria, if there is any, is used to determine how to fund such lines that will never be funded through the money that is allocated to every constituency? If that is not done, there are constituencies that will remain in the dark forever. Finally, could the Assistant Minister inform this House what they do with ... view
• 7 Sep 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. The Assistant Minister has avoided answering my question. I asked what criteria, if there is any. Secondly, I asked what they are doing with the money allocated to the constituencies that already have electricity, especially those in urban areas. Those are the two areas that he has avoided answering. view
