• 16 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, to be fair to the Minister, I think this year’s Budget is a more progressive one, compared to last year’s Budget. I say this because last year’s Budget was more of a political Budget as opposed to a Budget that was meant to spur serious economic growth. I would say that even the growth that we realized of 2.6 percent was by accident, because most of the measures that were put in place, especially the Economic Stimulus Package, and which were supposed to spur economic growth did not take off. So, we cannot attribute any ... view
• 16 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. From the response that the Minister has given today to the House, I am convinced that we need--- view
• 16 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, let me just build my point of order. Since this matter is weighty, I would request the Minister to bring this Statement to the House next week with definite results of the investigation, otherwise, the answers we will receive here are academic. view

• 15 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to raise an issue on procedure. I do agree that this matter is weighty and probably it requires more ventilation. However, I thought that when the Prime Minister, hopefully, brings his Statement tomorrow afternoon these hon. Members will have a chance to interrogate it. We are now setting a precedent that we will have to live with in this House that a Member of Parliament can seek for a Ministerial Statement and another one uses the same to raise other Ministerial Statements without passing through the Speaker’s Office as is a requirement. view
• 9 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, the Assistant Minister said that out of 272 recruited DOs, 70 are female. We know that it is the policy of the Government that at least a third of recruits should be of either gender. If you do simple arithmetic, you will find that 70 is below a third of 272. Why is the Ministry ignoring the Government policy of ensuring gender parity by making sure that at least a third of either gender is recruited? view
• 9 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Madam Deputy Speaker. Is the Assistant Minister in order to mislead this House by saying that DOs are supposed to be involved in combat activities when we know that they are supposed to be administrators and just co-ordinating the activities in their areas? view
• 15 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Assistant Minister has talked about some socio- economic impact that this task force came up with. Could he tell us one or two of these socio- economic impacts which informed this decision? view
• 15 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The way the Minister has handled this issue makes me think that Kenyans need to vote for the new Constitution so that we can rein on the appointing authority. However, the Minister has told us that the reason Mr. Elkana Odembo was recalled--- He is not the appointing authority. Would I be in order to ask that we give him more time so that he can consult the appointing authority? Someone being appointed and serving for one year is unfair. Could the Minister go and consult the appointing authority and come with ... view
• 15 Apr 2010 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Looking at this issue, it looks like there is corruption and fraud, and that the Kenyan public is going to lose land to the very, very fraudsters who have been fleecing this country! view
