• 16 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: on changing names. It became New KCC, then KCC and then I do not know which kind of KCC. As we speak, we do not understand which KCC is serving the interests of farmers. People have lost hope. Nobody keeps dairy cows anymore because there is nowhere you can take your milk. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I think it is a good idea to change the way the sugar industry is managed. I think it is a good idea and especially when it comes from the very farmers; the people who feel, understand and are affected by that particular sector. ... view
• 16 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: With regard to Mheshimiwa Wamunyinyi’s question on land, we all know that most of the natives of this country had their native land. When we talk about tea plantations in Kericho being owned by white settlers the truth is that those farms used to be people’s homes.

• 16 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: So, I support this seriously. We should not look at this particular sector alone. We must look at other sectors.

• 16 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Rift Valley, almost 95 per cent of our people’s livelihood is farming. However, farming nowadays does not even give us food. Farming does not help us educate our children or help us do business. Unless we seriously look at how we can salvage the backbone of the economy of this country, those industries will collapse. view
• 15 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, I also wish to request you to apply your mind, when you will be looking at this issue, to Article 94(6) of the Constitution. It states: “An Act of Parliament, or legislation of a county, that confers on any State organ, State officer or person the authority to make provision having the force of law in Kenya, as contemplated in clause (5), shall expressly specify the purpose and objectives for The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.

• 15 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: which the authority is conferred, the limits of the authority, the nature and scope of the law that may be made, and the principles and standards applicable to the law made under the authority.” This Article was contemplated so that certain State organs, or offices, are allowed to make regulations which I do not think necessarily have to pass through this House. So, when you will be addressing this issue, look at that Article and confirm whether all the regulations made by universities, Cabinet Secretaries (CSs), Ministries, parastatals have to be brought before this House. I do not know if ... view
• 15 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Yes, the gist of it is that we delegate power to some of the bodies to make regulations. Do these bodies, including the CSs and universities--- view
