• 29 Oct 2008 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I appreciate the excuse given by the Leader of Government Business but given the gravity of this Question, I would request that it is placed on the Order Paper this afternoon. This is because, as we talk right now, there are Kenyans who are under arrest in Uganda and I expect this Question to be answered urgently. view
• 29 Oct 2008 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. In view of the fact that there is collective responsibility in this Government, why did the Assistant Minister not forward the Question to the relevant Ministry instead of bringing an answer? Is it in order for the Assistant Minister to come with an answer, and then tell the House that the Question should be re-directed to another Ministry? view
• 29 Oct 2008 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. I have heard your ruling that all the Questions that were directed to the Ministry of State for Provincial Administration and Internal Security are deferred to next week. You had ruled that my Question be answered tomorrow afternoon. Next week, I might not be there. What do I do? The Assistant Minister is here. Why can he not answer this Question? It is very urgent! view

• 22 Oct 2008 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. If you listened to the Questioner clearly, you would realise that his supplementary Question was within the framework of this Question. Am I in order to say that the Assistant Minister is not conversant with the operations of the Port and, therefore, his capacity is a bit limited, and that is why he has a problem in answering this Question? Could you defer the Question until the Minister himself comes to answer it? view
• 22 Oct 2008 in National Assembly: On a point order, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. I am still coming back to the earlier point that I raised. I understand English very well; I had a pass in English and I have gone to the highest level of education. When an Assistant Minister takes the Floor of the House to answer a Question, he should be prepared for supplementary questions. They do not have to be the same as those Questions on the Order Paper. The supplementary question that the Questioner is asking is simple: When you are making the decision to grant--- view
• 22 Oct 2008 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I wanted to make it clear, because it seems that the Assistant Minister is struggling to understand my point of order. I wanted him to understand it. Did the Assistant Minister understand the question, and if so, why can he not answer October 22, 2008 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 2883 it? view
