Hon. Speaker, before I was interrupted, I was saying that I also want to plead with you to make a comprehensive pronouncement in form of a ruling on this matter because it is precedence-setting.

10 Sep 2019 in National Assembly:
Hon. Speaker, although this is a matter we disposed of and made a decision, Committees need to be very clear going forward. The idea of approving appointment subject to… Is it procedural and constitutional? Is it legal? The people of Kenya gave this House the vetting power and authority because this is where the peoples’ representatives sit. Therefore, the decision that we take here should be informed by law – the Constitution and all the statutes – such that when we pronounce ourselves, it should be definite.

It recently got the recommendation, but it has not passed the proposed formula because Senators disagreed on it. For us, the National Assembly, they want us to rubberstamp the County Revenue Allocation Bill. Finally, before I sit down, I have been a ...
