• 27 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, let me put it differently: “--- for the implementation of an official aid-funded project as may be approved by the Cabinet Secretary responsible for finance”. view
• 27 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I see that this is a double- edged sword. Given the argument that is coming up, it seems to be more convincing especially when it is abused by the Government machinery. Then I withdraw that further amendment. view
• 27 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairperson, I oppose. An amendment of such magnitude affecting even possibility of investing funds of pensioners, you need to engage extensively and discuss with even the employees’ representatives. COTU needs to be involved and all the other groups that are for the welfare of employees. Just bringing this amendment here at this point in time without even subjecting it to Committee, would do this particular legislation injustice. I oppose this amendment totally. view
• 27 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, first of all, this House will recall that we were very unhappy that the Senate had proposed an amendment using the County Allocation of Revenue Bill to the Public Finance Management Act. I want to also inform this House that already the Treasury has proposed a raft of amendments to the Budget and Appropriations Committee on the PFM Act. The PFM Act needs not to be amended through other legislations at will. view
• 27 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Yes. I urge this House to oppose this amendment because it is so ambiguous. If you read it, it does not even make sense. view
• 27 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: It is proposing to amend the Public Finance Management Act, 2012, under Section 2, by creating a definition for “government to government loan, which is not even in the parent Act. I have looked at this Act and even though it is saying expanding, I do not know what it is expanding. If you look at the PFM Act, there is no definition of “government to government loan”. There is only public debt and such things. So, we need to be clear and consistent. This amendment is not necessary. There is no urgency. view
• 27 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, I beg to move:- THAT, the Motion be amended by adding the words “subject to re- committal of Clauses 24 and 33A.” view
• 27 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, this is in line with the requests by hon. Chepkong’a and hon. Gladys Wanga that the two clauses be recommitted, so that we can transact them tomorrow. view
• 27 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you. view
• 27 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
