• 15 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: At least, if it was a term of five years renewable it would have made sense. view
• 15 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. There is a typo error in the way the amendment is done. You need to read the sentence so that we include what is needed to make it correct. Also, I do not see any harm in this. He is only being introduced as an ex-officio member. Other than the suspicion from the Leader of the Majority Party, he has also not convinced us as to why we should not have the Attorney-General on the Commission. Other than being suspicious that he comes from Kiambu, why does it become a money Bill? view
• 15 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Let me help the Leader of the Majority Party by saying that when we made the Constitution 2010, we put panels to help us form commissions. We have commissions now. Allow me to finish. You will eventually come back and amend this, even if you defeat us here. Even if we do not delete that panel, it is of no value because we already have a commission doing the work the panel did at the beginning. We have the commission in the Act. I am trying to persuade the Leader of the Majority Party that this is The electronic version ... view
• 15 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: another clean up. There is no mischief. In any case the panellists do not come from Kiambu as the Attorney General. view
• 15 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: I think we can see the effects of going late into the night. It is affecting some people differently. It is expected. It has a lot to do with what time one slept. What I wanted to say is that, Hon. T. J. will understand this much easier, when you get an interim driving licence, you will still drive. You will only be waiting for the process to be finished so that you can get a driving licence. It is exactly the same with the Letter of Interim Authority. We have to be careful so that we do not kill ... view
• 15 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, perhaps, we can get clarification. Are all the people we would want considered for this slot, members of the Kenya private sector association? I doubt. The membership is not a statutory requirement. It is a voluntary association. By bringing it here, there must be others we are going to exclude. view
• 15 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: For that reason, I oppose. view
• 7 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving an opportunity to say one or two things about this Report. First, I would like to commend the Committee for the work it is doing. We have had their reports for other special funds and we commend the leadership of the Committee and the Committee as a whole. The second thing is to appreciate that political party funding and the entire issue of political parties was carried in our Constitution because we wanted to entrench democracy and proper governance in the Constitution in a manner that was different from what we had ... view
• 7 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, when we put whatever percentage in the Constitution or the amount of money that is supposed to go to the political parties, we did not quite think that it would be the kind of huge sums of money that we see today. That is what the Executive is still grappling with. If we were to allow - and I hold the view we should - the total amount of money to go to the political parties as they are today, we certainly would have very strong political parties that if not regulated in another way, could ... view
• 7 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: be done with this money by the political parties to grow them, but not to allow the money to end up in a few members’ pockets. view
