• 12 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I propose that when we are moving the amendments, we do it procedurally like we do with the Motion where we would expect the Chair to say: “The proposed allocation under the programme in respect of Development Expenditure, Kshs2,690,000,000 million be deleted and substituted thereof with the figure Kshs690 million…” Then you go ahead and explain. This is because we do not want to have a situation where after we finish, the HANSARD has not captured correctly the amounts and then we would be accused of sleeping on the job. view
• 12 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. First of all, on this amendment, I want to say the following: view
• 12 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: The first thing is where we have taken the money from. It should be understood that LBDA, for whatever reason, decided to be involved in construction of a mall in Kisumu, which has been a thorn in the flesh in the budget-making process every year. I agree with the Leader of the Majority Party that we need to find out what really is happening. I am told now the mall is operational. So, it should be able, in future, to pay its debts. However, one thing that is of concern to me is that the Chinese have actually been paid. ... view
• 12 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: no need to personalise issues. When the BAC did not find favour with some of the proposals from the Departmental Committee on Labour and Social Welfare and rejected the proposed allocation to this vote, a few of us became victims of insults and unnecessary messages from women representatives. The Chairman and I were targeted. Some of the people who were sending me these messages are not even aware that in the last Parliament, I single-handedly went with the women representatives to the Treasury to plead on their behalf with the CS for Finance to allocate this money. If I did ... view
• 12 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. view
• 12 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, my information to the Member for Funyula will also help inform the Member for Garissa Township. I worked with the University of Nairobi for seven and a half years as an Assistant Accountant all the way to Senior Accountant I and during which time I worked for University Enterprises Services (UNES) which was managing parallel degree programmes. I want to inform the Leader of the Majority Party that the accounts were then audited by the Controller and Auditor-General. Now it is the Auditor-General. I would tell you those funds help the University of Nairobi a great ... view
• 12 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I oppose this amendment. Indeed, I was absent when this decision was taken, but I do not support it. The Equalisation Fund has suffered a lot. In previous years, there has been under- provision to that Fund. This is a constitutional requirement and the money that was allocated to it by the National Treasury should first offset all the arrears and be sure that we are not over- providing. This money has a sunset clause and I would urge that we do not interfere with the amount that is already allocated to the Equalisation ... view
• 12 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I just wanted to say something brief. There is history to this allocation. Members of the BAC sat and we agreed that there is a problem in the whole country. The roads have been destroyed. We need to have a uniform amount of The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only.

• 12 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: money for every constituency to bring back the roads to motorable condition. You can do all these things like TVET, but let me tell you that if roads in your constituencies are not passable, you cannot be re-elected. If the Government wanted to put Kshs8 billion, we are giving them Kshs8.7 billion. If you wanted Kshs3 billion, we are giving you Kshs8.7 billion for roads. Let us not touch this amount at all. By the way, this amount had been agreed on. I do not know where this idea is coming from that we are still begging for this money. ... view
• 6 Jun 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. It is true, as the Leader of the Majority Party said, that we sat last evening and agreed that we request the plenary to allow exemption of today’s business from Standing Order 43 so that we can initiate discussions on the Budget The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only.
