• 26 May 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the original KCC was sold to KCC 2000 for a price of Kshs400 million. The Government bought the business assets and took liabilities from KCC 2000 and KCC Holdings at a price of Kshs547 million. view
• 26 May 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I wish to apologize on behalf of the Government for mismanaging the co-operative movements in this country. Many institutions such as Kenya Farmers Association (KFA), KCC, among others, collapsed. view
• 26 May 2009 in National Assembly: The new KCC is making good progress. We hope that it would be privatized soon. I hope the Government will allow farmers who lost money in the past to buy the new KCC. It should not be sold to rich individuals. It should be sold to co-operatives who suffered the loss. I hope this will happen. This is the advice I would like to give to farmers. They should lobby to buy it. view
• 26 May 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I was in that Government! That is why I apologized on behalf of the Government then. I said it was mismanagement during those days which led to the collapse of KCC. I am among the few who can apologize when the Government makes mistake. view
• 12 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. view
• 12 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: (a) I am aware. view
• 12 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: (b) In the meantime, my Ministry is consulting with other relevant Government departments and Ministries in order to find a solution to the problem. This is because the matter cuts across a number of Ministries such as the Ministry of Lands, the Ministry of Local Government, and the Ministry of State for Provincial Administration and Internal Security. At the moment, there is also a pending court case on this matter. Hence, the need to await the ruling of the court. view
• 12 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, we are aware of security problems as a result of many squatters moving into the area illegally. We have had meetings with the various Ministries in order to address the security and squatter problems, which are likely to cause problems in that particular area. We know that the co-operative society wishes to develop a half of that land and make it productive by planting cash crops that will help conserve the environment and also help the people of that area. view
• 12 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I do not have a constituency. Mr. Nyamai is referring to my former constituency, which is now Mr. Musyimi's constituency. However, we will work closely with the leadership of the area, because there are political implications in dealing with those issues. The Ministry will take a leading position in order to solve the problem. view
• 21 Jan 2009 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me the opportunity to contribute to this very important Bill. view
