• 5 Mar 2020 in National Assembly: There was a reservation and we may bring it in the Third Reading. Where there are certain businesses that are high risk, those are the only ones we shall have an exception which will depend on the advice of the Cabinet Secretary because he has been given powers to categorise which businesses are high risk. Therefore, that is how we shall move with it. I do not think we had so much in this Bill. We want to support it as both the Committee and the players in the sector. With those few remarks, I beg to support. Thank you. view
• 4 Mar 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I was here in the morning session and as we discussed the business of the House, Members who mixed languages were reprimanded.

If so, what is it reflecting to the revenue, so that we can have ... view
• 26 Feb 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. After Hon. William Chepkut has spoken, as you have seen, the mood in the House is that these two nominees qualify. Therefore, we should invoke Standing Order 95 so that we can ask the Mover to reply. view
• 26 Nov 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. This is related to the issue Hon. Baya has talked about. I also found that we are limited in terms of what we can do. The Clerk told me that I cannot seek a Statement from the Ministry of Education simply because I am a member of the Departmental Committee on Education and Research. I was forced to give Hon.
