9 Dec 2009 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, last week I had asked for two Statements from the Ministry of Justice, National Cohesion and Constitutional Affairs and they gave the undertaking that they would deliver them this afternoon. I believe that Mr. Cheptumo is in the House and will be able to say something about the Statements.

8 Dec 2009 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Administration Police (AP) unit is set up under an Act of Parliament. If any dispute arises between a member of a society and the society, it is resolved by the Co-operative Societies Tribunal. Under what circumstances can the APs get involved in a purely contractual relationship between the members and their society without going against the Act?

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I will go by your direction. But I would insist that I get a written answer before then. That is because I expect to look at the statistics in good time.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, an issue that is slowing down the process of electrification in the country relates to theft of transformers. It would appear that every time transformers are fitted, the same contractors engaged by REA come back and steal

8 Dec 2009 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, persons living with disabilities in Kenya constitute a very big number of our population. The fact that the UN Charter was ratified in 2008, and the Act passed in 2003 are good steps, but why has it taken the Ministry so long to operationalize the Act, so that persons with disabilities can access television programmes, buses, buildings and have special facilities?

2 Dec 2009 in National Assembly:
asked the Minister for Fisheries Development:- (a) if he could explain the Ministryâs policy on the funding of aqua culture/construction of fish ponds and state the criteria for identifying beneficiaries of the funding; and, (b) whether Kisumu Town West Constituency is one of the constituencies that have been identified by the Ministry as beneficiaries of such funding during the current Financial Year, 2009/2010.

2 Dec 2009 in National Assembly:
The criteria adopted by the Ministry in deciding which constituencies should benefit is all wrong. The understanding was that the Economic Stimulus Programme would benefit all the constituencies. However, you will notice that the fish pond activity programme and the suitability for farming is based on one aquaculture inventory, water availability, aquaculture suitability and riparian near water. In this case, is it by coincidence that Funyula constituency, which you happen to represent, comes on top of the list and Kisumu Town West, which I represent, comes in the category of Isiolo North, Isiolo South, Sigor and Mbooni? Is it fair?
