11 Oct 2011 in National Assembly:
asked the Minister for Higher Education, Science and Technology:- (a) why Mr. Samuel Daniel Wafula - a former employee of Kenyatta University who was dismissed from service on grounds that he was involved in the student unrest in 2009 – has not been reinstated to his job, contrary to the recommendations of the Departmental Committee on Education, Science and Technology; (b) whether he is aware that Mr. Wafula was innocent of all allegations made against him; and, (c) what steps the Ministry is taking to ensure that the university administration does not victimize staff, in compliance with the recommendations of ...

11 Oct 2011 in National Assembly:
On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is it in order for the Assistant Minister to give an answer that is totally inadequate to the Question that was asked? The first part of this Question asks why Mr. Daniel Wafula has not been reinstated back to his job---

11 Oct 2011 in National Assembly:
Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I was asking whether it is in order for the Assistant Minister to give to this House an answer that is totally inadequate in the sense that the first realm of this Question asks why Mr. Daniel Wafula was not reinstated despite the recommendations of the Parliamentary Committee on Education, Science and Technology. In the first realm of the answer, the Assistant Minister has said:- “It is unfortunate that no action has been taken on the Parliamentary Committee’s recommendation on Mr. Wafula. Therefore, I will give instruction to the Council and Management of Kenyatta ...

11 Oct 2011 in National Assembly:
On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. That is precisely why I said that this answer is inadequate. What the Assistant Minister is saying is that he does not have information and that he wants to go and ask the Management of Kenyatta University why they have not complied. Instead, what he is saying is this: “I want more time to be able to answer this Question adequately.”

11 Oct 2011 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, it will not be possible for me to interrogate this answer fully, if that first part is not answered. In that case, I ask for your ruling on whether this Question can be put on the Order Paper in two weeks time, so that I can have the chance to interrogate the answer fully.

11 Oct 2011 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to ask for a Ministerial Statement from the Minister for Public Service on a matter that is fairly urgent and pertinent. I would like to ask why the Public Service Commission (PSC) has, since 14th September, 2011, insisted on termination of services of 2,660 junior support staff who were recruited by the Ministry of Education following the advertisement of their jobs on 15th May, 2009. This termination has been done in spite of an order of the Industrial Court to maintain the status quo, pending the final determination of the case filed by the ...

11 Oct 2011 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, let me repeat. (i) Why the PSC is perpetuating impunity and disregard of the law by failing to comply with the order of the Industrial Court. (ii) Why the PSC has backdated the termination of the services of the staff involved, disregarding the period that they had worked. (iii)Why the PSC has failed to recognize the interest of the union and the Ministry of Education to isolate issues pertaining to those who were irregularly engaged and to stop further irregular engagement of staff to replace the ones who are terminated. This matter is so urgent and ...

11 Oct 2011 in National Assembly:
On a point or order. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I wish to emphasize the point raised by Mr. Mungatana. That is because, among the affected members of staff - those civil servants - are those who have traveled from outside Nairobi and who have not been paid for over six months. They are stranded in Nairobi.

11 Oct 2011 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the issue raised by Mr. Mungatana as to the discrepancy in what is published under the Elections Act, Section 34 (9), in my view, is not just an innocent error. What is disclosed is a deliberate and well orchestrated scheme by public officers, either in Parliament or at the Government Printer to falsify what Members of Parliament have deliberated and agreed upon. That is so serious that I urge the Chair to have a very serious look at it. In addition to what has been asked by Mr. Mungatana regarding corrigenda to revoke the publication, I ...
