• 15 May 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I would have allowed the Minister to continue with his time differences. The Minister can tell this House what it may not understand. However, can he just explain to us, for example, in his timing difference, the net domestic borrowing? The Central Bank of Kenya is the one which gets the money through borrowing and reports. Why is it that the Minister reported to the Controller and Auditor-General that there was zero in the Exchequer Account for that year and yet he reported to Parliament Kshs13.8 billion? It is just as ... view
• 15 May 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I do know whether the House is convinced, but you will agree with me that if there is timing difference, it should be systematic and consistent; if PAYE is low in terms of this date, the corporation tax should be the same and the Value Added Tax (VAT) should be the same. Why is it that we have a difference; for some the report to Parliament is higher and for others the report to Parliament is lower? How then would we be sure that this is a timing difference? Mr. Deputy ... view

• 15 May 2012 in National Assembly: The hon. Chair of the Committee. view
• 15 May 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. It is very sad that the Chair of the PAC is not even aware of the work of his Committee. You had ruled that the accounts of 2007/2008 had been looked at by the PAC. They have been tabled there and adopted. You made a specific ruling that the 2008/2009 accounts, which are before the Committee, will not be addressed by the Minister. However, the 2007/2008 accounts were finalized by the Committee, and a report bought here; it had only one small paragraph on revenue to be addressed. That is why ... view
• 15 May 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this is my final plea to the Chair. Let me put this matter very clearly; the accounts we are referring to were for the year that ended on 30th June, 2008. These accounts were audited between September 2008 and May 2009 and a report issued by the Controller and Auditor-General in May 2009. The financial statements I am referring to, which were brought to this House, were brought in June, 2009, 12 months after the end of the financial year. Therefore, the figures that were tabled before the House should have been the same ones that ... view
• 15 May 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, from the Minister’s answer, either he has not reconciled himself to the gist of this matter or he has deliberately been misled by his Office. I want you to help this House and this country because this is taxpayers’ money. We are talking about the Kshs489 billion in question. The Controller and Auditor-General is not sure. If today you asked the Minister how much we collected as a country in that particular year, he may not answer us because the figures he gave the auditor are different from what he gave to this Parliament. So my ... view
• 15 May 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. There is no quorum in the House. view
• 10 May 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, from the information supplied by the Leader of Government Business, I was very curious and expecting to hear what the Government plans to do with the security Bills, especially those setting up various organs like the NSIS. Remember, we are going for another election and we cannot go to election before carrying out reforms in the security sector. So, I think the Government needs to be serious and tell us the exact timeframe within which we expect to deal with the security Bills. view
