  • 23 Sep 2021 in Senate: On a point of order, Madam Deputy Speaker. This is a Censure Motion. When we say that it is not binding, it means that the Senate could have censured or not. If we pass a Censure Motion, it means that we have censured those Cabinet Secretaries. Perhaps Sen. Halake needs to be told what censure is; an expression of dissatisfaction and disappointment is a binding expression. It may not mean that we are removing the two Cabinet Secretaries from office, which would be done through an impeachment Motion. Sen. Halake cannot say that not anything discussed in this House is ... view
  • 23 Sep 2021 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I want to humbly inform my esteemed colleague from Murang’a County that this Bill does not seek to create a new agency. If you go through it, it brings together the many different small units that have been dealing with disaster because there has been lack of coordination. view

  • 23 Sep 2021 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I sincerely hope that Sen. Kang’ata is not opposing for the sake of it. This is the last time I will interrupt him. Is it in order for him to mislead the House and contradict himself? He has given us an example of human rights, where there are many bodies. He has said on record that we should amalgamate them. He is talking about tourism where there are many bodies. We should amalgamate them. What this Bill is doing is bringing together three different bodies. The National Disaster Operations Centre (NDOC) ... view
  • 23 Sep 2021 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, Sen. Kang’ata is an advocate; I am not one. I know what we call the doctrine of implied repeal. The doctrine of implied repeal, which takes precedence in many of the laws we have done in this country, including this Parliament, is simple. An Act of Parliament or another legislature that conflicts with one that is new, the new one takes precedence and that is only relating to NDOC. That is the doctrine of implied repeal. You do not have to necessarily put a clause saying that this, therefore, now repeals the NDOC Act that was ... view
  • 22 Sep 2021 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Deputy Speaker. If you look at the wording of this Motion, the action that is required by the Senate is in two steps. The first one is the focus on the increase of fuel prices which have gone up inordinately high. The second one focuses on the CSs who failed to appear the Senate. I will make my remarks in that order. I think that the first issue has been overstated. As I said yesterday, our work was not to join Kenyans in lamenting the increase. Kenyans know that the prices are inordinately high. The people I ... view
