8 Sep 2009 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to say one or two things. As we continue listening to this debate and taking part in it, I want to draw your attention to Section 17 of the Constitution. I do this because I have listened to Members of the Cabinet. It states:- â17(1) There shall be a Cabinet consisting of the President, the Vice-President and the other Ministers. (2) The function of the Cabinet shall be to aid and advise the President in the Government of Kenya. (3) The Cabinet shall be collectively responsible to the National Assembly for all things done by ...

2 Sep 2009 in National Assembly:
Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to support the Motion for Adjournment. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, one of the reasons we should adjourn is because we have been here for awhile. We have been transacting business in this House. Most times, we have done so, with very few Members in this House. The pretence that we can now have numbers and capacity to hold on, does not quite add up. When we have Ministers of this Government come to this Floor to oppose Government Motions, we see more of political mileage than really good thought ...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, while the Assistant Minister was answering this Question, he gave a list of the assets that were handed over. He did mention the issue of the IDPs. However, he did not indicate that the list of the IDPs was handed over to the incoming DCs. How will they handle the issues of IDPs if they were not given the records?

1 Sep 2009 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, there was a report that had been prepared by the Directorate of Personnel Management (DPM). I remember tabling that report in this House. Why did the committee that was sent by the Minister ignore the recommendations of that committee? The terminations that have resulted from the action that has been taken have nothing to do with the recommendations that were contained in that report.

1 Sep 2009 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, when we have been recruiting people even on the Floor of this House, one of the criteria that we have used is regional balancing. Why did the Minister not find it necessary to use the same criteria when sending people home? Why did he not balance the regions?

20 Aug 2009 in National Assembly:
Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to support this Vote. The Ministryâs work has been felt in this country. Many hon. Members have contributed positively about the good work of this Ministry. However, I would like to ask the Ministry to do some work so that we can feel them in my constituency. We have not quite felt them. I am only concerned with the issue of irrigation, as far as it remains under the Ministry of Water and Irrigation; I think we are headed for mucky waters. We have a history of this ...
