• 25 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for this opportunity. I rise to support the Petition by Hon. Bowen. I thank him very much for having talked on behalf of all the unions in this country. I want to plead with this Parliament, holistically so, to come and look at what unions are going through throughout the country. The Labour Relations Act was passed by this Parliament to protect the workers and worker organisations together with employers, but today, the Act is not being respected by employers. Unlike how Hon. Junet has put it, I want to draw the attention of the ... view

• 18 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I beg to equally support the Motion, which provides that we establish programmes and interventions to encourage the uptake of counselling services. However, as I support it, I would wish that we expand our scope so that we do not just look at mental illnesses. The Mover also broadened the Motion enough. I also want to bring to the fore the fact that there are certain departments and institutions that do this, but they The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only.

• 18 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: have not been institutionalised formally. I, therefore, want to support, but still propose that every Government department, institution and ministry should institutionalise counselling services for its workers. In every place of work, there is not only the issue of mental illness, but also the issue of stress. In fact, what affects Kenyans as a social problem is stress. Coming back to the constituencies, we lack counselling services within the areas of our jurisdiction. I would support very strongly that there is need for the Government to post tacticians who know the issues of counselling in every constituency so that they ... view
• 18 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I want to thank Hon. Martha Wangari for this because it is extremely crucial. It touches every home and every family. It affects schooling. It affects the agricultural sector in the country because currently parents wake up in the morning to look for birth certificates and go back home and still go back the following day. Originally, birth certificates were reserved for the elite in Kenya. Not everybody had a birth certificate. But a birth certificate has become the main tool to facilitate employment opportunities and even entry into schools. Therefore, it has dawned ... view
• 18 Apr 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Chairman. We should not do it from the basis of the interest of our professions. What Hon. Kajwang’ was trying to do was that we can hire a lawyer. We do not need to bring him on board. In fact, the Hon. Member who has just spoken has given credit to this. If you look at Ministers for Finance who performed well, they may not have been guys in that profession, but under them, there were technocrats who were helping them to perform. Moving forward, whereas I do not believe in exclusion per se - that we ... view
• 29 Mar 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I want to confine myself to the constitutionality of this Motion. I quickly want to indicate that it is wrong for the House to be informed and guided, as I earlier heard, that only just a small group of people look at the constitutionality of the Motions before they come here. That is a misguided approach. There is only one institution that can make a decision on the constitutionality of any law in this country and that is the Judiciary. Section 37 is very strong… The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is ... view
