27 Jul 2011 in National Assembly:
On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is it in order for Mr. Lessonet to ask the Prime Minister to take personal responsibility? What is so personal about drought? This is because I cannot remember reading anywhere that drought can be caused by an individual. So, what personal responsibility can an individual take?

27 Jul 2011 in National Assembly:
On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is it in order for the Prime Minister to insist that he did not understand hon. Mbuvi? Hon. Mbuvi was very clear on the connection between general elections and the issues we are facing. Is it in order for him not to answer this question yet we are aware that Ministries of one side of the Coalition Government have been given enhanced Budget allocations in the recent Budget, whereas the budgets of the Ministries on the other side of the Coalition Government have been reduced?

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, there is no justification for increasing money for the NSIS and giving Kshs1 billion only to the Strategic Grain Reserve. No one else would want to ask for any substantiation. If you are Minister who cares for the welfare of the people who are dying in Turkana, you would have seen that it is important to put more money into the Strategic Grain Reserve.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we need your guidance here. As far as I am concerned, there is no Bill before the House. We are discussing a Motion. When the hon. Minister talks about a money Bill and say that it should not be amended--- We are not discussing any Bill. We are discussing a Motion.

On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is it in order for hon. Dr. Khalwale to imply or insinuate that, that was not considered when I moved this amendment and yet, the Report of the Defence and Foreign Relations Committee is attached to this very Report? It says they could not determine transparency and accountability on the part of NSIS because the budget is not itemized. That is what the Report of the Defence and Foreign Relations Committee says.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, in the Report, it is clearly stated--- If I had the Report I would read it. The Defence and Foreign Relations Committee reported to us that since the budget of the NSIS was not itemized, they could not determine whether it had been done transparently and whether there was accountability. They recommended that in future, this should be done. That is why I am saying that, instead of giving them more money, we reallocate it.

27 Jul 2011 in National Assembly:
On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is it in order for the Minister to mislead this House and country that there is any deal he can cut with the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance, yet we know very well that we are concluding the Budget for this year? Unless that deal comes in the Supplementary Budget, there is no guaranteed, it will happen now. Why is he rejecting the efforts of this House to give him money, while he prefers to cut a deal with the Minister for Finance?

On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is it in order for the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance to persistently continue misleading this House? The Committee’s Report is attached to this Report and it is very clear. They have said they cannot confirm because the budget is not itemized.
