2 Nov 2010 in National Assembly:
On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. The Minister has said that the beneficiaries whose details are unknown are 16. According to the list he has just tabled, the beneficiaries without passports are 85, which means that 47 per cent of those who were given exemptions did not have passports. It is not known when 74 per cent of them came back to the country. We do not even know when 67 per cent of them left this country. Is he in order to mislead this House by alleging that only 16 beneficiaries have their details missing while, ...

2 Nov 2010 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I have no interest to declare. On the reverse, it is actually the Member for Kamukunji who should declare his interests because he is the one who deals in vehicles. This Question has a lot to do with exemptions of people who have brought vehicles beyond the eight year rule and only the Minister himself can give these exemptions as allowed by the law. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, when you have vehicles in the region of 400 being exempted within six months, as Members of Parliament, it is only logical and expected of us to interrogate ...

On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. It is in the public domain that the Member for Kamukunji has been in court on matters relating to importation of vehicles and for vehicles that needed to have been paid for, but were not, for one reason or another. It is in the public domain that he is a dealer of vehicles.

On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. The Minister is saying that he feels he has answered the original Question adequately. However, it is crucial that we note, if you are exempting cars of returning Kenyans and you do not know their passport numbers, the dates the Kenyans left this country and the dates the Kenyans came back to the country, how else did you proceed to exempt those vehicles? Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, Mr. Mungatana cited Standing Order No.97. It is true that this Question has not been answered properly. The Minister has given false information on ...

2 Nov 2010 in National Assembly:
On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. The exemption of vehicles in this country is done through a procedure and it is clearly spelt out how it is given. This is done by the Minister on the advice of the National Standards Council and, again, on matters of national interest. It is not conceivable that when these exemptions are being given, the information that we are seeking will be scattered all over. It actually gives us a feeling that, perhaps, proper procedure has not been followed. But since this information should be in a known place, seven days ...

I want to commend the Committee for the work that they have done. As other hon. Members have said, I also want to commend the work that the Committee put in, number of meetings they had and also the Ministry of Finance for this appointment.

2 Nov 2010 in National Assembly:
Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the work of the Procurement Director is very important work in our country. A lot of the things that have occupied this House are in the manner in which people have been appointed to positions of authority; also, the manner in which Ministries have continued to procure goods and services. It is important that we have a person at the helm of this organization who is a person of integrity and an honest person. Mr. Juma seems to answer to those qualifications.
