• 19 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: county assemblies clear the matters which are before them. We would also wish to ask the courts that as a matter of fact, whenever there is a matter which is active in courts, it is never subject to either political discussions or even discussions in this House. Even the President himself cannot discuss matters which are active in courts. I remember when the Independent Policing Oversight Authority (IPOA) went to court and reversed the recruitment of police, the President gave a declaration that the recruits should go to Kiganjo Training College. However, the courts stood their ground and carried the ... view
• 5 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, I have contributed to the Bill. view

• 5 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I wish to second my friend, Hon. A.B. Duale who, on a light note, has got an accent. I was asking him why he is speaking like those yoyo people from the other side nowadays. He told me that he got a golden handshake from the great man of the United States of America (USA). So, that is why he has an accent now. view
• 5 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: As a member of the Committee that deals with most of these laws, I want to say that I second the Bill. I wish to also congratulate the Leader of the Majority Party for this Bill. Remember that we have dealt with two major Bills, although we know that they have not gone through the normal procedures. However, we thought we could do it consecutively so that, at the end of each and every Bill’s termination, each one will come to place. The Companies and Insolvency Legislation (Consequential Amendments Bill) is meant to give us a highlight, especially on the ... view
• 5 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: When you look at Section 2, it is amending the Records Disposal Act. If you look at Section 3, it is amending the Advocates Act. The most critical question is: “What is the major reason of doing these amendments and also repealing some of the sections and deleting some of the sections in these Acts?” The major reason is that we can align them with the current 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
• 5 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Companies and Insolvency Bills. The Mover had dealt with several clauses. I will only dwell on a few clauses. However, the most important part of it is that we should allow Members of Parliament, especially lawyers who would be dealing with these particular Acts, to read through this consequential Act. The two other Bills which we are about to expedite may not function properly without this last consequential Bill. The reason is that there are so many clauses which can be repealed - like Clauses 75 to 97 of the Bill. They propose to amend the Banking Act so that ... view
• 5 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Remember, we have also been dealing with the Fair Administrative Action Bill. The CBK was not given a major role in dealing with administration in the previous Bills or Acts. In this Bill, we are proposing to replace the administrator with the CBK so that we can, at least, provide for a right of appeal after an institution has been placed under administration. Clauses 98 to 123 propose to amend the Co-operative Societies Act to harmonise it also with the Companies and Insolvency Act so that it can specify that members’ shares are not subject to attachment and it is ... view
• 5 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Clause 125 of this Bill also proposes to amend the Hire Purchase Act as it was previously. It can be amended so that it can be aligned to the provisions of the Insolvency Act which we are almost finishing. When we align this Hire Purchase Act with the Insolvency Act, it will provide for agreements binding on a trustee or liquidator or an owner of a company. Clauses 126 to 133 of the Bill propose to amend the Central Depository Act to harmonise it with Companies Act 2015 so that the consequential amendments of the Act which were previously in ... view
• 5 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, I do not want to dwell so much on these clauses, but I just want to note some few other clauses which I thought would be very important for Members to know so that when they start debating them, they can be aware of the clauses that are in this Bill. Clauses 144 to164 of the Bill propose to amend the Employment Act to remove reference to the Minister. Obviously, it provides for a Cabinet Secretary (CS). Remember that we no longer use the term “Minister” in our current constitutional dispensation. Therefore, it is also important so ... view
