• 5 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, we hope we will get those funds during this fourth quarter from the Treasury. As soon as we get the funds, we are going to implement that project. If we do not get the money, then it is going to be a priority in the first phase of the coming financial year. view
• 30 May 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we can issue the Statement on Thursday next week, if you allow that. view
• 9 May 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I believe that my officers sent an answer to Parliament much earlier. If he agrees, I will give him a copy now. Thank you. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) Yes, I am aware that a minor by the name Ndegwa Mulatya was bitten by a snake on 26th August, 2008 and was treated at Kitui District Hospital. (b) My Ministry has processed compensation for Master Ndegwa Mulatya. (c) He will be paid during this month of May, 2012. view
• 9 May 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, we are processing a cheque for Kshs50,000 and before the end of May, that amount of money will be send to the relevant District Commissioner. We really want to apologize to the Member of Parliament for having delayed processing of this particular cheque. We know it was not only this particular case. We had other nine cases which the Ministry compensation committee had approved for payment, but documents did not seem to have gone through the process of payment. We are, however, concluding that in a couple of days. view
• 9 May 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, in the past, you will realize while responding to the Questions of compensation, we have had problems of the amount allocated by this House but in the last two years, that amount has been increased. Normally, it would take about three months from the time the compensation is processed by the District Compensation Committee before it comes to the Ministry Compensation Committee for payment. In this case, I want to apologize because it is us who delayed the process. I hope that, in future, we will not have such an anomaly again. I urge my colleagues that ... view
• 9 May 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to agree with the hon. Member that actually the compensation amount is small. However, I want to urge the House to be patient for a couple of weeks because we are waiting for the Cabinet to approve the revised Bill which contains revised figures for compensation which will be brought to this House. The House may decide the requisite amount for payment for death injuries and destruction of properties by wild animals. view
• 25 Apr 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, thank you for giving me this brief opportunity to contribute to His Excellency the President’s Speech, which was read yesterday. view
• 25 Apr 2012 in National Assembly: I want to be very brief on this particular one. First, I want to say that I support the Speech. Essentially, it has raised quite critical policy issues. But I hope that during the last few months of his Government, a number of these things are going to be enacted to leave a legacy for him when he retires after the next election. view
• 25 Apr 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to touch on the issue of insecurity, which the Government seems to be putting as a priority. I liked the Speech the President made particularly his sentiments on our engagement with Al-Shabab to stabilize Somalia and his call for Sudan and Southern Sudan to cease going to war. You will realize that what has taken Sudan and Southern Sudan to war are issues that were not finalized during the CPA agreement, and some of them relate to oil. You realize that just a couple of weeks ago, the President announced the discovery of oil ... view
• 25 Apr 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, I raise these issues because Sudan and Southern Sudan are about to fight over oil. Nigeria has been fighting within itself about oil. Angola has been fighting within itself about oil. Now that we have made a major discovery in this country, let us make sure that we put the requisite legislation so that we avoid the situation that those countries have gone into. I like the President when he said in his Speech that he is going to put the income that is going to be generated out of the oil into prudent use. But what ... view
