• 31 May 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of information, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
• 31 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to inform Mr. Namwamba, Mr. M. Kilonzo and the House because Mr. Orengo does not have this information. In February, this year the Budget Committee alerted the Minister for Finance to respect Article 221 of the Constitution. This is information that I doubt whether Mr. Orengo has. On 17th March, 2011, the Treasury issued a circular to all Accounting Officers. That was Circular No.2/2011. It advised them to compile their budget in accordance with Article 221 of the Constitution. Therefore, the issue of oversight or not knowing does not arise. That is the information that ... view
• 31 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, given that I had forwarded this amendment before we considered this Bill, I wish to withdraw my amendment because the one for the Chair of the CIOC is more elaborate. view
• 31 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Chairman, Sir, I am also a Member of the Constitution Implementation Oversight Committee, and I expressed my displeasure with the deletion of this Clause for two reasons. Firstly, we legislate to correct previous mischief. We got it very clearly from the Constitution Implementation Commission, that if we have fulltime Commissioners, they tend to involve themselves in the day-to-day functions of the Commission. In fact, the coming amendments will make all Commissioners fulltime. If we delete this particular Clause, then we will have the same problem. Secondly, if you read the Kriegler Report, you will find that it is very ... view
• 31 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Chairman, Sir, this is an amendment that, we, as a Committee agreed on. I support it but I am just alerting the country that we have given those who will be here in future a problem to sort out. The commissioners, constitutionally, must be in office for six years. The commissioners that we will appoint; the nine of them at the same time, will retire just a few months to the 2017 General Election. So, we have a problem to sort out, which probably we can only sort out by having a very strong Secretariat. Otherwise, this country will ... view

• 31 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Chairman, Sir, is it in order for Mr. Lessonet to propose that we appoint commissioners in October, and yet we want these commissioners to finish the review of the boundaries? The new constituencies must be in place 12 months to elections. view
• 31 May 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Chairman, Sir, I beg to move:- view
• 31 May 2011 in National Assembly: THAT, Clause 10 be amended Subclause (3) by deleting the word “budget” appearing after the words “subject to its approved” and substituting therefor the word “establishment”. Mr. Chairman, I would want the word “budget” to be deleted and replaced by “establishment. I want to read Clause 10(3) which states: “The employees of the Commission may be appointed subjected to its approved budget”. Mr. Chairman, Sir, I am urging this House to replace the word “budget” with “establishment” because one, the Constitution is very clear that all commissions should be given enough funds by Parliament to carry out their duties. Finally, ... view
