• 11 Nov 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. With a heavy heart, this Bill is very important, given that it has far-reaching effects on this country but looking around, I do not think the Quorum in this House is adequate enough to give this Bill enough attention. view
• 10 Nov 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of Order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I do believe that the member is an Assistant Minister in this Government; is he in order to oppose a Government Bill? view

Could the Minister clarify whether he has allocated Kshs100 million (or any amount at all) in the 2009/2010 Financial Year for disbursement to Nominated Members of Parliament and if so, explain the purpose for the allocation, state under which Vote and provide the legal justification for such allocation? view

• 16 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to thank the Minister for Justice, National Cohesion and Constitutional Affairs for literary pulling the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance into the House. For the third time, I beg to ask the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance the following Question by Private Notice.

• 16 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Budget process involves the line Ministries and various departments forwarding their Budget Estimates to the Ministry which then rationalises the same and compiles the Annual Budget Estimates. Who asked for this money from the Ministry of Finance? We all know the CDF funds are governed by an Act of Parliament. Where is an Act governing this particular fund? view
• 16 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, when the Minister presented his Budget here on 11th of June, he talked about economic stimulus and specifically he said that the economic stimulus package will go through line Ministries. These special interest groups are represented by line Ministries. Why did the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance not see it fit to allocate these monies also through the line Ministries as he did with the economic stimulus package? Why did he see it fit to give it as pocket money to the nominated Members of Parliament? view
• 16 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Is the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance in order to deny the obvious because he has given out money without rules which he says will be developed?

If we need to put a stop to this, the “imperial” Executive, an Executive that has no respect for Parliament, has to be told that it has to toe the line. I listened very carefully to the Mover of the Motion, who talked with a lot of honour and a lot of motherly advice.
