• 28 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I think I have finished my contribution. I was just urging that let us sometimes separate issues from parties. view
• 27 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to give notice of the following Motion:- THAT, noting that the latest national population census indicates that there are about 1.8 million people aged over 60 years, a majority of whom are poor and cannot support themselves; aware that Article 57(d) of the Constitution makes it a requirement that the elderly receive reasonable care and assistance from their family and State; this House urges the Government to create a scheme to pay any person who is over 60 years and is not in receipt of a pension or any benefit from any organization or State ... view
• 27 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, there is a tendency or a habit in this country where some people use their power to exploit resources in other regions without compensating for them. The Assistant Minister has said that the company was given the prospective licence in 1989. How long was this prospecting supposed to take? Is it not true that now, they are mining and not prospecting? Nobody can prospect for 22 years? How long was this prospecting supposed to take? view
• 26 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I have just heard the Member for Karachuonyo refer to some entity called “Nyanza Province”, which I am not aware of. Which county is that? Is he in order to refer to some entity we are not aware of? view

• 26 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is it in order for Mr. Ruto, who decided to be absent in this House when the Speaker made a clear ruling to cast aspersion on the Chair when the Chair said very clearly that the mistake is with the Committee which has not followed the Standing Orders? Is it in order for the hon. Member to imply that it is the failure of the Liaison Committee and the Speaker yet it is that Committee which has failed to do what is required by the Standing Orders? view
• 26 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I thank you for giving me this opportunity to also make my contribution to this very important Bill. view
• 26 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: This Bill was arrived at as a result of very extensive consultations. I remember that there were consultations at Windsor Hotel. There were consultations in Parliament when the Ligale Report was brought, and it is part of this Bill. There were very extensive consultations in Naivasha for over two days. That particular workshop was attended by Members of two Committees of this House, namely, the Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs and the Constitution Implementation Oversight Committee (CIOC). In that particular workshop, we had representatives of the Kenya Law Reform Commission, the Office of the Attorney-General and the Law Society ... view
• 26 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am willing to substantiate that the Members of this Committee have failed to behave in the manner we had expected them to behave. The membership of this Committee has admitted in this House that the Committee has failed to function. What other substantiation would the Chair of that very Committee expect from an hon. Member like me? I have done as much as you would have wanted me to do. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, let me now go to the issues that I feel are critical, and which have not been addressed properly. ... view
• 26 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, this House will recall that when we came here, there was the issue of the boundary review by the Ligale Commission. It did its work and concluded. The first review is constitutional. The Constitution gives the first review to no other commission except the Ligale Commission. This House adopted the Ligale Commission Report and also the report of the Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs. view
