• 23 Apr 2019 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I wish to ask the Cabinet Secretary for Interior and Co-ordination of National Government the following: (i) Could the Cabinet Secretary provide details and plans in place on the implementation of the newly established administrative coordination units in Nambale Constituency that were gazetted vide Notice No. 5853 of 21st June 2017? view
• 23 Apr 2019 in National Assembly: (ii) What measures has the Ministry initiated to ensure that the existing administrative units in Nambale Constituency are provided with the requisite infrastructure and human resources to enable efficient delivery of services? view
• 23 Apr 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 23 Apr 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to support the amendment by Hon. Kaluma. I want to speak as a citizen of Kenya who cares about the affairs that go on in this country. If there is a lacuna in the provisions that will not compel these companies to be accountable to our local laws and requirements, it should be fixed. We should not shy away from any legal complication that may arise because that will be the process through which we will clean up our act as we go along. The question that should be accurately considered is: When did ... view
• 23 Apr 2019 in National Assembly: it deserves. It has the possibility of getting multinationals to come in and make money illegally without due process that is respected by ordinary citizens. If you asked a person in the streets whether companies that do business here should be liable in the event of any reason thereafter, for example, malpractice or improper completion of contracts that have been paid and so on, whether such companies must be held accountable, they will agree with you. Therefore, if you gave them a chance to say so, this nation will be voting in favour of the amendment by Hon. Kaluma, wholly. ... view
• 2 Apr 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support the proposed amendments. They are straightforward and appropriate. Let me use this opportunity to also comment broadly on the role of this very important institution. The SRC has metamorphosed positively. It is like it is going for policy reforms rather than trying to get at anybody. When they began, there was a bit of fascination with particularly the National Assembly. That seems to have declined somehow. They are now moving into their appropriate territory of playing the role that is expected of them. It will help the Executive to manage ... view
• 2 Apr 2019 in National Assembly: If they become effective, going forward, these changes will help them somehow. However, they must find operational space in which to challenge all institutions in this Republic The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only.

• 2 Apr 2019 in National Assembly: of Kenya in terms of wage containment in an effort to have lean and efficient service units. This includes even questioning whether what the PSC may have done contravenes the Constitution. We had recent appointments of Chief Administrative Secretaries (CAS) at a time when we expected to have a lean Civil Service in order to cut down on costs. That development does not indicate in any way that people were listening to the SRC. The SRC should have come out strongly to indicate whether that development was appropriate. view
• 2 Apr 2019 in National Assembly: With those remarks, I support the amendments. Other than that prayer that I have got for the SRC, I support these amendments. Thank you. view
• 27 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to contribute and support this Motion. It is long overdue. The comments relating to the instruments we should use are very valid. Probably an amendment of the law would compel the Government better than this. I think that is a worthy thing. The entire machinery of the Government of this country stands on the heads of these village elders. Somehow in pre-independence days there was an agreed remuneration system that ensured that those who had disputes to be resolved contributed certain items of value and later on cash. It was not an ... view
