19 Sep 2007 in National Assembly:
Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me a chance to contribute to this very important Bill. This is one of the few positive steps that the Minister has taken to assist this country. We have travelled to various countries in this world over and over again. Departmental Committees have prepared reports and tabled them in this House. Sometimes, they are adopted by this House. Those reports are meant to streamline our operations, especially the aspect of licensing for businesses. But this country has, over the years, put those reports in the shelves to gather dust.

Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, this House should not try to amend the Constitution through an Act of Parliament.

12 Sep 2007 in National Assembly:
Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I rise to oppose the amendment. We are concerned about road carnage in this country. One way of combating road carnage is to remove drunk drivers from our roads. I support the Government. It should re-introduce that blow--- What do you call it?

On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is the hon. Member in order to say that these people come from Mt. Kenya region when I know that Mbeeres have not been recruited to any positions of significance in this country and they come from there?
