• 26 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady we cannot say that the amendment is mischievous because we do not know the content. The gist of this thing is the procedure. Has the right procedure been followed while bringing the amendment? Every hon. Member here has the right to bring an amendment. My opinion is this: It is only the Mover of a Motion who can bring an amendment without notice. Any other Member who wants to bring an amendment must give adequate notice. That is the procedure. I want to kindly correct my good friend, hon. Midiwo. When he said, “by 12.30 p.m.” ... view
• 25 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker, Sir. First, I want to really tell my good friend, hon. Washington Jakoyo Midiwo, that failure is not an option in the Jubilee Government. Having said that, I just want to quickly say that the five nominees for Industrialisation, Planning, Devolution, National Treasury, Commerce and Tourism fit the bill. Hon. Speaker, Sir, there should be a correction of the Motion. Number 4 is written “Dr. Ibrahim M. Mohamed, Commerce and Industry: It should be “Commerce and Tourism”. view
• 25 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, Sir, what I wanted to say is that these five departments, to me, are the main pillars for realising Vision 2030. If these five nominees are going to show commitment, dedication and selfless service, they will take this country to the greater heights we have been yearning for. These are the departments that can take Kenya to where the Asian Tigers are. I am happy that in the report some of these nominees pointed out that if we can really have investment of 30 per cent of our Gross Domestic Product (GDP) instead of the current 21 per ... view

• 25 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, Sir, hon. Midiwo is a very senior Member of this House. He knows that all Bills are kept in Room 8. So, there is no need of informing him on that, but I want to confirm that this is the Bill that was published, as stated by the Leader of the Majority Party. More importantly, this Bill has gone to the Budget and Appropriations Committee, which has thoroughly looked at it. The recommendation of reduction of the publication period is from the Committee. They are very satisfied and I request my good colleague that with that explanation, he ... view
• 19 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker, Sir. I would really like to plead with my colleagues not to support this Motion for the following reasons.

What is remaining to be disbursed in these ten or so days is Kshs11.7 billion. As a matter of prudent view
