• 30 Oct 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this Question was deferred because of a bad answer that we received last time from the Assistant Minister. view

• 30 Oct 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to thank the Assistant Minister for that attempt to answer the Question. We all know that 80 per cent of pyrethrum is produced within Nyandarua District and my constituency is within that district. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, since this misappropriation took place, the acreage of pyrethrum has dropped from 8,000 acres to 1,400 acres. Farmers in Ndaragwa Constituency have not been paid for, last 12 months. In the last three years, the number of farmers has dropped from 12,000 to only 2,000. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I have a set of two answers from ... view
• 30 Oct 2008 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. The Assistant Minister has told us that the officers were sacked. They were reinstated. I have a document from the offices of the Government and I want to lay it on the Table of this House. view
• 30 Oct 2008 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. These answers are dated the same day. It would have made sense if the dates were different. The answers were done the same day by the same person. The signature is the same. It is that of hon. William arap Ruto, EBS, MP, Minister for Agriculture, dated 13th October. It is the same position with the other answer. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we are dealing with billions of shillings of taxpayers' money. We cannot continue having such kind of casual answers from this Assistant Minister. It is important that he gives ... view
• 30 Oct 2008 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I rise on a point of order to seek a Ministerial Statement from the Office of the Prime Minister as to when he will table the Waki Report in this Parliament, so that hon. Members are able to look at the issues contained therein in a manner that is informed as opposed to the position today, where all that we are discussing are issues that come from the media. This is a defining moment in this country's history, and the urgency of this matter cannot be over-emphasized. view
• 30 Oct 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this issue is affecting all of us in a manner that is not healthy. We need to discuss issues when we have the gist of the report. Ten days is too long to keep a country in suspense and engage in the kind of a debate we have seen. It should come next week. view
• 29 Oct 2008 in National Assembly: asked the Minister of State for Special Programmes:- (a) whether she could explain the steps taken by the Government to ensure that the internally displaced persons (IDPs) as a result of the 1992 and 1997 tribal clashes are resettled as promised by the Government in the past; and, (b) what steps she has taken to ensure that the above IDPs are not dispossessed of their legally owned land. view
• 29 Oct 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to thank the Assistant Minister for giving us an opportunity to know the extent of his awareness of some of these issues. The answer I have has a whole part "b" answered. So, when I am told that it does not arise, the verbal answer and the written answer do not tally. view
• 29 Oct 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I think that is a confession that we have two sets of answers, and I do not know which one we are responding to. Having said that, I have a list, that I would like to table, of IDPs who are still living within Kieni/Huruma Village. The Government is saying that it is not aware that there are IDPs, who are still unsettled up to today. This is a record that was given to the Ministry. There is a document here that was given to the Ministry last week; of IDPs within Kieni/Gatundu area, who have ... view
