• 4 Apr 2017 in National Assembly: You will try again after five years. If you win, just come to this House and make laws, or go to your County Assembly, or whichever county government office and carry out the functions that the Constitution has assigned to that office. Let us not kill each other because of political competition. I urge our brothers in the Jubilee and NASA political coalitions to ensure that we handle our politics properly. We are brothers and we will remain brothers even after the general elections. view
• 30 Mar 2017 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I also wanted to comment on a small issue which is in Elections-Related Regulations under part (v): The Draft elections (Party Primaries and Party Lists) Regulations, 2017. I thought you would give us guidance on the inclusion of party lists. I remember the last law we made here which was suspended by the court dwelt on the party lists. I do not know whether we are introducing the same thing or we are now going to discuss a matter which is pending in court. view
• 23 Mar 2017 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I also support the Chairman, especially on the matter affecting the Revenue Allocation Bill. Senators rushed to court and sought interpretation of the Constitution but the Supreme Court just gave them an opinion on what they wanted to hear. The Constitution is clear on the functions of the Senate and the National Assembly, especially on matters of revenue. The National Assembly is supposed to divide the money between the two levels of government. The national Government then retains its share. The function of Senators is horizontal as it is supposed to determine how much ... view
• 23 Mar 2017 in National Assembly: role in determining how much money remains at the national Government and how much money goes to county governments. That is the function of the National Assembly. We cannot share that role with them. They can only present a request to the Chairman of the Budget and Appropriations Committee, through the National Assembly, that they would like to add a certain amount of money to the money that has been given to the county governments. They cannot purport to amend a resolution of the National Assembly on division of revenue between the national Government and county government levels. That is ... view
• 23 Mar 2017 in National Assembly: Yes, it is! That is why I was thinking Senators--- view
• 23 Mar 2017 in National Assembly: There is no toilet that the governor has built in my constituency. view
• 23 Mar 2017 in National Assembly: The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 23 Mar 2017 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, we managed to build toilets using the NG-CDF kitty, and with help from some NGOs like World Vision. However, the County Government of Narok is claiming that it has built 1,500 classrooms in the whole county and yet there is not even a single toilet that it has built anywhere in the county. So, I think Senators should be going round to monitor whatever is being done. That is exactly what we do in the Public Investments Committee (PIC), the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) and many other committees in terms of questioning how public funds are ... view
• 23 Mar 2017 in National Assembly: In my county, some contractors were awarded tenders to construct roads in the 2013/2014 Financial Year. The contractors constructed the roads, but they have not been paid up to date. I am talking about 2013/2014 Financial Year. So, what happened to the subsequent years? So, when somebody says that he has constructed roads in the county--- I heard him read that he has done a number of kilometres of roads, but the truth is that the contractors who constructed those roads are still being owed money by the county government. I wonder what senators are doing about this problem. They ... view
• 21 Mar 2017 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I also wish to join my colleagues in congratulating and thanking the great Clerk who has just retired and has served this House for some time. You must realise that Clerks are fundamental in this House. Most of the issues we deal with here are courtesy of them. These are people who do not sleep and work tirelessly to ensure that each and every Bill or Motion that is placed before this House is handled properly. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be ... view
