• 23 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, if this particular Clause 17 was restricted to a public or State officer not tendering in an institution where he or she is working, I would agree with it as it as it is in Clause 16. But you cannot tell me that public officers owning businesses in this country is the cause of corruption. Corruption is perpetuated by companies owned by Wahindi’s and Chinese who are outside--- Corruption is caused by people who are looking for 10 per cent. It is not companies. So, the whole of this Clause 17--- view

• 23 Aug 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Tempraory Deputy Chairman, Sir, if the provisions in this Clause could be as clear as hon. Karua has put it, I could not have minded the deletion. However, the way this Clause is framed or placed, it is terrible. We have asked questions in Parliament where we have seen police officers being dismissed for no reason. That can be treated as a fair administrative process because it is not defined what a fair administrative process is.

It is very clear that you are not supposed to interfere or influence tender. We had already passed that in the earlier clauses. So, we cannot limit freedom and criminalize whistle-blowing.
