• 3 Jul 2013 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I concur with the Senator who brought these amendments. To me, the Motion will now have more power and teeth, as it is suggested here. I hope the Senators who will work on the Bill will come up with it within the three months proposed here. The reason we need to come up with the Bill is so that any officer in the central Government or whoever else is processing compensation for officers who have retired or officers who have since passed on, do not feel neglected in our country. This Bill, as it will be generated, ... view

You notice that the Fourth Schedule describes the function of the national Government and functions of the county governments. Allow me to read this so that we do not misunderstand the intention of Sen. Murkomen when he brought it here. The Fourth Schedule concerning the functions of the national Government, especially Nos.15 and 16 says as follows:- “The national government is to do education policy, standards, curriculum, examinations and the granting of university ... view

• 19 Jun 2013 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I would like to join my colleagues in thanking our colleague, Sen. Catherine Mukite, for bringing this Motion, which has elicited a lot of response and debate. Madam Temporary Speaker, as I stand here remembering the Grand Coalition Government, I was the first Permanent Secretary (PS) for industrialization in the year 2008 and, lately, the Senate Minority Leader, Sen. Wetangula, was just the immediate Minister for Trade; trade now falls under Enterprise Development. This issue has come at a time when we must look at the rate at which Kenyan university graduates are coming out ... view
