Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I support the amendment. This country should not be driven that way. There is an office that deals with vetting. Let us go the way this country has been operating. If you wish to apply for a firearm licence, you will be vetted. We cannot just give firearms to watchmen. We are driving this country into problems. I support the amendment.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this chance. I am happy that the Chairman for Athletics is here. I can see the general at the Speaker’s Gallery. The Hon. Chairman needs to concentrate on field events. That is the area that Kenya is weak at. However, I support the Bill because sports and athletics have made this country proud all over the world. This Ministry should be given more money. We should check on how we can maintain these men and women who are making this country proud all over the world. The electronic version of the ...

They are selling Kenya all over. The money allocated to the Ministry of Commerce, Tourism and East Africa Region to attract tourists to come to this country should partly go the Ministry of Sports, Culture and Arts because the sportsmen and women, athletes and rugby players are selling the name of this country. I support this Bill. Thank you.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me a chance to contribute. I also support this Sessional Paper on the environment. The ecosystem all over the world is affected because of poor management of the environment. In this country, we have not protected and managed our environment properly. People decide what to do and take laws into their hands as if there is no Government. We need to have controls, so that we can preserve our environment for the future of our children. People have just decided to acquire forests which eventually destroy the water towers as the Government ...

Even our wildlife has not been treated properly and the animals are running away to our neighbouring countries like Tanzania and Uganda. This is due to poor management of the environment. I want to thank the able Chair Hon. Amina for bringing up this Sessional Paper. Kenyans should be vigilant and if they see someone encroaching into a forest, river or water tower, they should not hesitate to tell the person that he is doing the wrong thing. The Government should enforce these policies, so that we can preserve the environment. With this, I support.

Hon. Speaker, I wish to seek clarification about my Bill which was approved by the Speaker, but I have never been called to the Committee. Complaints have been raised against the Budget and Appropriations Committee. One time, Hon. Wafula Wamunyinyi moved a Motion to reduce the powers of this Committee, but later on, the Motion disappeared. Hon. Midiwo also brought a report to show that the Committee had allocated Kshs60 million to each of its Members. I seek advice from the Speaker regarding delays in sending summons to the Members by this Committee. Finally, are there under-hand deals in this ...

Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker for giving me the chance to contribute. Firearm tracking is very important to us as a country because there are people who are keeping illegal firearms in their houses and using them to kill innocent Kenyans. We need to have a proper control of firearms. Even uniformed security officers, to me, need to copy the military style of keeping guns. In the military, when an officer is going for duty, he signs for a gun and he must return it immediately after his night duty or whatever other patrol he is assigned to. He should ...
