• 5 Mar 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I said that the people who are sitting in these boards are diverse and they are brought on to these boards to represent various interests.

• 5 Mar 2014 in National Assembly: I went ahead to say that we have nominated Senators and nominated hon. Members who will also sit in these boards. That is why I said they will also bring in the expertise and representation of the people that they were meant to represent. view
• 5 Mar 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I was saying that the functions of the boards that have been said to be unconstitutional are not unconstitutional. I am looking at sub-clause 2, the county development boards--- view

I want to thank the Leader of Majority Party for bringing this matter to the plenary of this House. I do not want to belabour the point because most of my colleagues who have spoken before ... view
