• 16 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I mentioned a little bit earlier, we do not have the minutes attached to it. It is difficult for us, as Members of Parliament, to conclude as to what was discussed in the minutes. The fact that the document was tabled may be, have the minutes attached to it, does not mean we know the deliberations that view
• 16 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I did introduce those things earlier. I did allude to that even before I said what I have just said. If I recollect well, the Speaker mentioned that those things should be raised later. What he actually said was that his report indicates that he has a signed copy. The fact is, we do not have signed copies. Our copies of the report do not have minutes indicating the proceedings that took place. view
• 16 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: Many of the things that I would have said have been said, with those few remarks, I wish to move that amendment and call upon the gracious lady, hon. Naomi Shaban to second. view
• 16 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, Dr. Naomi Shaban. view
• 15 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: asked the Minister for Forestry and Wildlife:- (a) whether he could state the circumstances under which Mr. John Wachira Kihia was dismissed from service by the then Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources; and (b) whether he could explain why this officer was dismissed, considering that the then Nyandarua District Forest Officer conveyed to the Ministry, through a letter dated 21st March, 2003, indicating that he had been unwell. view
• 15 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. While there seems to be that thought, there are many of us who would have liked to air our views on the same issue. We have been trying to catch the Chair’s eye since the cows went to the river. We cannot just be denied that opportunity. This is an important issue and we also need to get an opportunity to make our contributions. view
• 10 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. During the debate, I did raise an issue under the Constitution. I did specifically point out Section 17. You promised to include it in your ruling. I was fairly attentive but I did not hear it. view
• 9 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. In the Statement, the Minister did indicate that some of those people who have been investigated and prosecuted included Cabinet Ministers. The Public Officer Ethics Act talks about the level of integrity that is required for one to serve as a public officer. How is it then that we have people who are under prosecution and are still serving as public officers at the level of even the Cabinet? view
• 9 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: It is in my opinion that the Minister will not withdraw this Bill. We need to be careful here because the issue of village elders has been with us for a very long time. It is a bit intriguing to see the Minister coming in at this late hour to get involved in this Bill. While we would want him to get involved, we also do not want this thing to drag on for another 20 years, without ever thinking about these village elders. I agree there are many other issues that also need to be looked into. These include ... view
• 9 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. When you made the ruling, you said that the Statement made by Mr. Magara was Personal and did not need any comments. Secondly, this is a Minister asking another Minister a question. The Minister is using the Floor of this House to promise an answer to the Minister. This is the issue of collective responsibility which has now become collective irresponsibility. view
