• 27 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this survey was conducted in 2005. The teachers and civil servants in the affected districts like Nyatike, Gwassi and Mbita, among others, were promised that they would be paid hardship allowance. The Government even gave the amount of money each was supposed to get with effect from 1st July. Rationally, the civil servants went ahead and even budgeted for that money because it was an assurance from the Ministry. We are now in October and it is now that the Government is turning round to say that there are consultations going on. How did the Government ... view
• 27 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. If you really took your time to read this Report--- view
• 27 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I withdraw that statement. view
• 27 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I apologise. I wanted to say that this Report also touches on policy issues on procurement, construction and disposal of assets. This is a very crucial Report. I now understand why some of us were very emotional. It was because we personalised this Report. It is important that you give us time to canvas, discuss this Report and endorse it, so that we can have policy changes in this Ministry. view
• 27 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. When we stand on points of order, it is also important for us to quote the Standing Orders that have been violated.

• 27 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: I also want to be on record that, honestly, this is a very good time for this country. This House is stamping its authority. As we move forward, we must realize that the Tenth Parliament will have a more serious responsibility to keep the Executive on its toes. view
• 27 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: I want to quickly say that those honest officers need not fear. Unfortunately, the Prime Minister has left, but I would like to thank him for extending his olive hand to this august House. We want to assure him that this House will not witch-hunt. Those honest officers need not worry. view
• 27 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to also put it very clearly to my colleagues, we need to look at ourselves; the membership of the Committees. Committees are also like public offices. If you have been adversely mentioned, please, step aside. Let us not look at what is in other people’s eyes. We should also look at what is in our eyes. Some of us sit in crucial watchdog Committees, yet we are under investigation. Please, consider this and step aside. view
• 27 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to conclude by saying that we will not compromise the integrity of public officers for political reasons. My request to my colleagues who spoke before me is that I hope we were not just being so vocal about this because, maybe, hon. Wetangula comes from a party that has no strength in this Parliament; Ford Kenya. I hope we did not condemn him because, probably, his value in PNU has gone down. Why am I saying this?
