• 15 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: It is a Bill that is very elaborate, particularly in the section on judicial review. The court can also give orders of mandamus, or mandatory orders. If you have been applying for a license, for instance, and the administrator has not issued you with the license and he is taking you round probably waiting for a bribe, or something, you can move to court. You can also move to a tribunal. You do not need to go to the High Court. Even where you have not been given that license, or the reasons for denial of the license, you can ... view

• 15 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: lowest judicial entry point of our country. You can get an order from a quasi -judicial organ or from a subordinate court. You can also use the internal mechanisms of the Bill to get relief. view
• 15 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: I like the Bill because it also provides for the orders of certiorari and prohibition. For me, it is a very elaborate Bill which exempts, on the other side, the administrators from criminal or civil liability where they are acting in absolute good faith. If we create a Bill that does not address those who administer it, it can also be a problem.

• 15 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: This is a Bill that we should all support. Clause 110 of the Bill gives the functions of the Bill to the counties. It affects the counties and we need to support it. I support. view
• 2 Apr 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker. On my own behalf and on behalf of the people of Ol-Jororok, I wish to express my deep sympathies to the bereaved families. This country must now unite more than ever before. It just goes to show that the ball is now back to the court of the National Security Council, the men and women responsible for our security. This is the time that we must debate and ask for a National Security Policy. We are very vulnerable and, sometimes, I think the Al Shabaab looks at us and decides to leave us alone. It ... view

• 19 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, it was not actually an intervention. I just wanted to buttress the importance of this deletion.

• 19 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: orders. Therefore, we cannot grant police officers a blanket sanction that anytime they want to arrest a person on suspicion of breaking a court order they may proceed and do so.

• 19 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I really want to support the Chairperson on the deletion of this part. What we are doing is repeating legislation that is already in place. When you say you can take evidence, it is the mandate of the court. There is the Evidence Act.
