• 26 Nov 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, you will notice from the answer of the Assistant Minister that it has taken the Ministry nearly three years to effect what the law requires to have been done within the first year. So, in effect, the Director-Generals who have been acting for three years now have been doing so under the terms of Schedule 15(1), which says:- “Upon the establishment of the Authority, each member of staff of the Public Procurement Directorate, including the Director, shall remain a member of the Public Service but shall be seconded to the Authority for a period of not more ... view
• 26 Nov 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I do know that there has been a succession of Acting Director-Generals. So, whether it is the present one or the previous one, they have all been acting. So, what is the position? view
• 26 Nov 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, now that the Directorate has advertized for the position of the Director-General, what steps is the Ministry taking to ensure that they get a competent Kenyan to fill that position substantively? view
• 26 Nov 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, one of the oldest and largest prisons in Kenya is Kodiaga Prison in Kisumu, which was designed for 800 inmates. But, now, it accommodates in excess of 8,000 inmates. What is the rationale behind building or expanding other prisons, when the Ministry is not improving conditions and affordability of health in Kodiaga Prison? view
• 26 Nov 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, as time ticks away – I do agree with the Minister that, indeed, we should not tamper with the time that is in the law – what steps has the CoE taken to ensure that the ordinary mwananchi down there who has got no access to the web can drop his or her view at a particular collection point near his or her home? view
• 26 Nov 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Last week, I sought for a Ministerial Statement from the Minister for State for Special Programmes, and she undertook to bring it today. She has informed me that she has the Ministerial Statement, and it is very brief. view
• 25 Nov 2009 in National Assembly: asked the Minister of State for Public Service: (a) why officers in the police force are paid a flat rate of Kshs1,200 per month as hardship allowance irrespective of rank or length of service while other officers in the public service are paid at approximately 30 per cent of the basic salary; and, (b) what steps the Minister is taking to rectify the disparity, which is creating dissatisfaction in the force. view
• 25 Nov 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the core responsibility of the Police Force is detection, prevention and prosecution of offenders. That is a very important duty. Clearly, part “b” of this Question asks what steps the Ministry is taking to rectify this disparity. The answer to the Question admits that officers in the Police Force are receiving less than what the regulations say, be they single or married. Could the Assistant Minister confirm, therefore, that the shortfall that the police officers have been receiving all along will be worked out and paid to them, so that they can feel satisfied like everybody ... view
• 25 Nov 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, that disparity is admitted by even myself. I noticed it. What I am now asking is: What steps are being taken to rectify it, so that those who have been receiving less in the Police Force can receive the full amount? view
