Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is out of order for the Minister to refer to me as her learned junior because in Parliament, we are all equal!

12 Jul 2006 in National Assembly:
Mr Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is not local politics that created two polling stations in one primary school. It is an irresponsible Government that does not look at issues affecting its citizens. Under the law, the boundaries of a constituency are supposed to be gazetted and known. When did ECK change the boundaries of Tigania East Constituency to include part of Tharaka? The Minister has not answered this Question properly. The boundaries of constituencies are gazetted. Thangatha Primary School has been a polling station in Tigania East Constituency since Independence. It is run from Tigania. I am building classrooms using ...

12 Jul 2006 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the question is very simple. The two constituencies have been in existence since Independence and the boundaries have always been known. On what basis did the Government change the boundaries, so that we have two polling stations in one primary school?

Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this chance to also say a few words on this Vote. I will begin by clarifying one thing. The House feels that Kshs29 billion is a lot of money.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for this Ministry to do all the work that is supposed to do, and do it efficiently, it needs double this amount of money.

July 12, 2006 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 2037 I would like to congratulate the Minister for his commitment in running the Ministry. I would also like to congratulate his officers, including all his Chief Executives and the entire Provincial Administration for what they have done.

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, could we all be as civilised as the hon. Member on the Floor? When I was in the Opposition, I was very civilised and I used to listen to what the Government side was saying.

12 Jul 2006 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we inherited a lot of problems which had taken 40 years to plant and we now need another 40 years to uproot them. We need to take out the bad blood which had been ploughed into the civil servants. We must appreciate and accept that the Office of the President is committed to do a lot of good things. When you look at the concept of security, which I believe you know very well because you are a former trained civil servant, you realise that we actually need this money. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Ministry ...

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I heard you address the hon. Member as Archbishop. Could you inform him that this is the National Assembly or Parliament and not his church?

He should, therefore, not raise that point of order here. Let him raise it in his church!

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, oh, I am surprised. He does not want church goers. He does not want to recruit me to his church. I only did not want to hear him, but I do not mind if I joined his church.
