training in the lowest level. When you look at the CBC education system, we are now going the direction of TVET and vocational training. So, this is an area which I wish county governments will still make sure that we do not kill the village polytechnics which are very important to ourselves, leave alone the ECDE which has been spoken about. Let us get a mechanism of how the county governments can give a report and how they use it. There are a number of institutions in this country, including county governments, which do not want to declare their tax ...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker for being kind. I lost my opportunity and will be very brief. From the perspective of workers, we know every job must have a job description which leads to creation of titles, job levels and ranking in form of job evaluation. Hon. Speaker, you have just said that you find yourself in trouble a lot of time with the SRC. You have just spoken on issues that concern Members of Parliament. It is because there is no job description. So, this is a law that is trying to bring a level and job description for Members ...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I take this opportunity to also pass my condolences as Omboko Milemba and the people of Emuhaya. We are his neighbours and I call him uncle because my mother came from where his home is. We had a chance of visiting him and I agree with Hon. Wamalwa. He told me to sit in Parliament. He told me not to be walking out and bouncing. He told me that that is the most important thing when you are in Parliament. We wanted to cross over from ODM to ANC during that time. I went with my ...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise on a motion of privilege. There is some noise behind us and it is like a gas leakage. Could you, through your office, establish exactly what is going on for the safety of the Members? I thank you.

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. My brother has brought up a very serious issue that I am not aware of and not everybody was aware of. He has indicated that he has been waiting to see it, but he has not seen the Motion. Hon. Speaker, we have a lot of confidence in you. I wish, then, he could proceed to name the people, so that we also deal with it. Otherwise, if he speaks the way he has spoken and he does not name the people, then we shall be disenfranchised to deal with the matter seriously.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this chance to contribute to this Motion. From the outset, I want to indicate that I support the Report of PAC on the examination of the Report of the Auditor-General on the financial statements of the national Government for the Financial Year 2017/2018.

The positives of this Report are glaring, as moved very well by the Chairman, whom I want to congratulate for being very clear. This Report will go a long way to make the revenue that has been collected to be released which is good for this country. Furthermore, it will also ensure that more revenue is released to the counties. Remember that we are speaking during the time that counties are in dire need of resources. In the temporary absence of the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI), which we wanted to enable the process to happen, this will also go a ...

Let me highlight something quickly. The Seconder of this Motion, senior Hon. Eseli, indicated that the interest of the Report of the PAC is waning. I took this very seriously. This is the kind of Report that gives stock of what the Government does and whether it spends the revenues that are collected from the taxpayers properly or not. What Hon. Eseli spoke about is very important. Institutions must be strengthened to oversee the Government strongly. That will bring confidence in the public, institutions and even in the National Assembly when speaking on such reports. Reports of the PAC of ...

Another thing that kills this clamour is when we reduce ourselves to speaking or taking stock that is very sure that nothing will be done, after all. The Executive will go ahead and still do The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
