• 24 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker for the very good guidance that you have given us. It complies with the Constitution, Standing Orders and every other section of the law. As you have guided, I stand with it. view
• 24 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: However, I notice that most of the amendments can be stepped down in future. The role of Parliament is not only to make laws but also to sensitise Kenyans about what is being done and the reason it should not be done. I beg the Chair of the Committee to allow some of the amendments by private Members to be spoken on in future, so that the public may know their stand. view
• 24 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. view
• 22 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to ask Question No.203/2021 to the Cabinet Secretary for Interior and Coordination of National Government. (i) What action is the Ministry taking to curb the increased cases of insecurity in Emuhaya Sub-County, particularly Ambali, Emakakha, Ebuyangu, Ipali and Ebukhaya areas of Emuhaya Constituency? (ii) When will the Ministry provide necessary motor vehicles, given that there are none, to Ambali, Emakakha and Ebuyangu police stations and police officers to Ipali and Ebukhaya police posts in Emuhaya Constituency, so as to facilitate security operations in those areas? The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is ... view
• 22 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I bring to your notice what you have been told as good behaviour from the Cabinet Secretary for Interior. Yesterday, three of us were called in a hurry to go and receive our Questions which had taken a very long time. As you have been told that the Cabinet Secretary is now behaving, the behaviour is not good because you are asked to go and receive your answers at the last minute. That is what we went through and we were unable to get there on time. So, I wish that even as they come back ... view
• 22 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for this opportunity. At the outset, it is good to congratulate the Mover of the Bill. Hon. Wanga was able to go through the Bill easily and in an elaborate manner that every person would understand, leave alone the demands for having a degree or none. I am sure everybody was able to understand it, which was very good. You will almost imagine she had a very serious economist and an accountant behind her. That is something which the Committee did. I, therefore, congratulate the Committee. The Finance Bill is crucial to Kenya. This ... view
• 22 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: severely. It is important we make our comments. I begin by speaking on the issue of flour, bread and taxes on basic requirements and needs of the people. There are certain basic needs that every family would require. Other than flour and bread there is the cooking gas. We have been toying around with the issue of cooking gas for some time and delaying VAT on that particular item. As Parliament, we should consider extending that reprieve on cooking gas. What has happened is that with increased price of paraffin, which was mostly used, most of the families are now ... view
• 22 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: I support the Chair and the Committee on that one. Also, flour should not be taxed so that view
• 22 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: i is not be hurt. My predecessor speaker was trying to allude to the French Revolution where the price of bread became too high that those in the civility and the nobles who were living in the palaces did not know that the normal mwananchi could not afford cakes, leave alone bread. He did not also mention the number of shoes that that lady, Maria Antoinette, had. Her pairs of shoes were overwhelming. That description in history shows the difference and gap in living standards between those who were rich and those who were poor and it is very important ... view
• 22 Jun 2021 in National Assembly: am happy you are looking in my eyes. Reprieve like through the PAYE, the Corporate Tax, or the Income Tax, but definitely PAYE for workers. As we support everybody else and ask workers to take reprieve from what otherwise should have been their rights, which we shall discuss elsewhere, then this is the correct law to propose a raft of measures on how to support workers who are also greatly hit by COVID-19 as we progress. Finally, is the issue of TIVET. The proposal by the Chair looks like it will limit the number of people who will be absorbed ... view
