However, with your permission, let me point out that on the same day, the Provincial Commissioner (PC), Western Province, was ordered by the President himself to go to the scene to assess the problem and recommend what should be done. I am sure that the Government is very alert to this problem. view

I wish to thank all hon. Members who have contributed to the debate. I have been listening very attentively since this debate started and I am highly impressed. I like being very frank.

• 12 Jul 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to assure hon. Members that their contributions will be taken very much into account as we move ahead to utilise the Budget that they have, so overwhelmingly, supported. As I said, we are short by over Kshs18 billion. I think I should mention here that we will initiate discussions for the Government to re-look at the central allocations, which are made according to the sectors. The factors that influence those allocations are highly dynamic, Therefore, the grouping of Ministries in various sectors that was done two years ago can hardly apply today, because ... view
• 12 Jul 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, we have noted the proposal to increase the insurance for police officers. Let me also say that it is not going to be long before the police on operations are supplied with bullet proof vests. This is coming very soon. We have also acquired equipment to detect guns from a distance. If you are carrying a gun, we shall be able to know. Those gadgets are at various places known to the police - the routes which are used. That is why, as part of police operations, road-blocks must be supported. I am glad that ... view
• 12 Jul 2007 in National Assembly: If we were not to be fair--- You have an hon. Member standing in this House vilifying the Government that it is discriminatory to those of the Islamic faith! I feel highly disappointed that, that is the way the hon. Member sees Kenya. I want to assure him that it is not so. Free education is going to every child of any faith or without faith. The Constituencies Development Fund (CDF) is going to every corner of this country. The Government has got programmes everywhere. The investments that have been done in his own province are worth over Kshs4 billion! ... view

• 12 Jul 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, this is a general designation of equipment of that nature which will appear under different departments. They will appear under the Kenya police and under the administration police because according to the nomenclature which the Treasury has set aside, there is that grouping which must be repeated under the various allocations to departments. view
• 12 Jul 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, the provision of Kshs5 million for training--- You must remember that the actual training in a training college, for which we do not have to pay--- This is money spend on people who have to be send back for training. In fact, it was stated here that the July 12, 2007 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 2505 police ought to be taught law as it comes up. This is what we are doing. These are in-service courses for people who are required to deal with specialised crime. view
• 12 Jul 2007 in National Assembly: Yes, it does, Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir. The only thing that we do not have in our Estimates is Anti-terrorism which is under the National Intelligence Service. view
• 12 Jul 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I think the hon. Member knows that for a very long time, field services had highly inadequate space. Since the last financial year, we have embarked on enlarging some of these offices, including those of the District Commissioners (DCs) and District Officers (DOs) in certain areas. view
