• 6 Aug 2008 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir! view
• 6 Aug 2008 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. It is not a matter of where one comes from. I come from Ndaragua Contituency where we have no water. I also want services delivered so that we can also get water in my constituency. We have a clear letter here from the Head of the Civil Service. If we have a conflicting position from the Prime Minister's Office and another one coming from the Head of Civil Service then I submit that this issue needs to be investigated well. We should either refer it to a Committee or I get ... view
• 6 Aug 2008 in National Assembly: Thank you, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. May I also join other hon. Members in saying a big thank you to the team that sat at the Serena Hotel, and the thoughts that came from the Team of Eminent African Personalities that helped us get through this process. Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, very quickly, again, the issue of Constitution making, to us, is not new. We have talked about this issue over and over again. But as many hon. Members have suggested, it is incumbent upon Members of Parliament, because they are the political leaders in ... view
• 31 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Before I ask Question No.150, I would like to seek the guidance of the Speaker. I have a letter from the Office of the Prime Minister directing that this Question is best answered by the Ministry of Agriculture. The Question on the Order Paper is still directed to the Minister of State for Development of Northern Kenya and Other Arid Lands. view
• 31 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise to seek a Ministerial Statement from the Minister of Water and Irrigation on why and how she has interfered and changed the board members, the Chief Executive Officers (CEOs) and the management of several of the State Corporations under her Ministry, whose services have been terminated and why. She should also give the expertise of those who have been brought on board. view
• 31 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Thank you Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I want to say a few things about this very important Bill that is before this House. Of course, I am still amazed by Members of this House. This is a very important Bill, but I think we like discussing things that are more controversial than things that may help us move into the future. Having said that, this intended legislation is very important. This House cannot fail to recognise the amount of effort, time and thought that was put by the key persons who sat at Serena Hotel and negotiated. Even for ... view
• 30 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. We are encouraged by the Assistant Minister who always gives new police Land Rovers every time there is a Question. Am I in order to inquire whether we must ask Questions in this House to be given police Land Rovers in all the police stations in this country? view
• 30 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. On the same issue, it appears like all the other Order Papers do not have Section 45(b), other than that of the Chair. view
• 30 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Thank you, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity. I stand to oppose this Motion for very few and straightforward issues. One, starting almost where Mr. Munya has stopped, we have pending Bills before this House that aim to amend the Constitution. Piecemeal amendments to the Constitution will not help us in this country and it is important that we all sober up, wait and be ready for a proper review of our Constitution. Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, secondly, the Mover of this Motion seeks for gender parity and regional balance and these are issues that ... view
• 30 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, we are also talking about gender parity. This is July 30, 2008 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 2203 something that can easily be provided for under the Standing Orders of this House. Standing Orders are now under review and if we really need to bring in the aspect of gender parity we can do so. I sit on that committee and I can say that it has actually been catered for. So, we do not need to amend the Constitution to talk about it. This is something that is being adequately catered for in other areas and I believe ... view
