• 8 Aug 2019 in National Assembly: There has been an argument that when a proposal comes from the Commission on Revenue Allocation (CRA) it should be final. The Senate is forgetting that every five years, it determines the formula for sharing revenue among the counties. In Article 217, before the Senate makes that determination, it has to request and consider the recommendations from CRA. 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 ... view

• 8 Aug 2019 in National Assembly: My apologies, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I hope I will not make the mistake again. I thank you for giving me the opportunity to contribute to the Sectional Properties Bill (National Assembly Bill No.23 of 2019). First of all, we need to ask ourselves why this Bill is necessary and what is it all about. We know that presently, we have a law in place called the Sectional Properties Act 1987. However, this Act is not responsive enough to emerging market needs such as the growing demand for affordable housing in the country and the mixed use of houses or ... view

• 8 Aug 2019 in National Assembly: Many of us reside in this kind of setup where there is a building which is divided into various residential units and again besides the building, there are common services. We have shops, swimming pools and many others that are shared jointly. When this Bill becomes law, it will provide clear mechanism on how to own a unit within a building and also go a step further to regulate how the common services can be managed by forming a corporation, which will manage and run the services that are jointly owned. When the lease period ends for one who owns ... view

• 8 Aug 2019 in National Assembly: The proposed law will enhance revenue collection. At the moment, for example if a building has 20 units of apartments, the payment of rates and rents will be done jointly. There is only payment of rates and rents as one unit. The 20 owners of various units will be contributing proportionately to what they own, but ensuring that that money is paid. This becomes the responsibility of the person who holds the mother title. The problem comes where, for example, ten people out of the 20 pay their share and the others do not pay. Then all of them are ... view
