14 Dec 2010 in National Assembly:
Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I believe these are issues which could have been adequately canvassed at the Committee stage. From the look of things, these are very serious amendments and they affect a very big industry. We would, therefore, persuade the hon. Member to reconsider his position so that if he is still aggrieved at this point, he can still come back in future and pose further amendments. As of now, as I see it, we cannot comprehensively go through each and every concern here at this eleventh hour. I would go by the Ministry’s amendment because of those ...

Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I want to congratulate the Minister for responding very fast to challenges by Dr. Kones. I also wish to thank both of them for their understanding and coming up together with this Bill which will greatly help the tea farmers. Having said that, I would like to urge the Minister to put her foot firmly on the ground in the tea industry, particularly the new inventions, where they want to act as bankers and things like that. She should capture the entire event within that industry to

14 Dec 2010 in National Assembly:
Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to support this Motion. I want to draw the attention of hon. Members to some years back; the year 1550. In the year 1550, according to the BBC in what they did about three or four days ago, they analyzed and said that China and India were the richest countries and economies of the world. That was in the year 1550 but over time because of invasions, colonization, piracy, cattle rustling, theft of raw materials from third world countries to the industrialized world, the economies of those countries gradually became very poor and ...

1 Dec 2010 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Minister has given a very detailed answer to this Question which has come here quite often. However, could we have the actual results of the analysis that he mentioned in his answer? He should also confirm that, indeed, only ten out of 63 farms are willing to comply in respect of all those pollutants.

1 Dec 2010 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, you have heard the Minister admit that out of 63 firms which are operating there, they have only been able to audit 31 fIrms. You have also heard him admit that there are some people who have been taken to court, because there is raw sewage in Lake Naivasha. You have heard him also say that tests have been carried out on various samples, and that certain amounts have been detected, even though they are not of significant level. Would I, therefore, be in order to request you to direct that this Question be directed to ...

30 Nov 2010 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, something must be terribly wrong because listening to the Member for Gichugu, the income that this Ministry would get if they continued doing their normal business and not denying Kenyans access to that park, would be higher than what they are purporting to receive from the lease. Could the Assistant Minister then confirm that the whole thing is fraudulent and should be stopped forthwith because it does not make economic or ecological sense?
