• 6 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, Sir, I have changed to a point of information. view
• 30 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, on behalf of the people of Kenya and on behalf of this House I would like to thank God for giving us a country with plenty of water and many mountains that tap water from the skies. We, however, have to blame ourselves because we do not use this water effectively. We do not preserve water during the rainy periods, so that we can use it during the dry spells. If you remember, during the biblical times there was a period of seven years of harvest. It was only because of prudent management that people were able ... view

• 30 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: The grass can also create a beautiful area where people can go and relax. In my constituency, there are no dams. The few dams that are there belong to large coffee farms. People watch from afar as people do fishing in those dams. If we introduced dams in our constituencies, our people would learn how to eat fish. Right now, we just think of how fish can be eaten. We would also like to know how to eat fish and engage in fish farming. I beg to support the Motion and urge the Government to create more dams. view

• 22 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker, Sir. First I will address the issue raised by hon. Ochieng on whether the select committees have the right to conduct private investigations on matters raised in this House. Almost every Committee is conducting one or another investigation, and they have the right and the powers to do so. We should not try to stop them; they have to investigate for them to conduct their supervisory roles and to make sure that things are run in a transparent way. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this ... view
• 22 Oct 2013 in National Assembly: What the committees cannot do is primary investigations, because of lack of infrastructure, laboratories and the technical knowledge. They have the powers to make sure that the right organs of Government that are supposed to do investigations do their work. As Members of the Public Accounts Committee, we conduct investigations on different matters from Departments of Government. We do not go on the ground to do primary investigations but we use the Auditor-General, Criminal Investigation Department (CID) and other organs of Government to conduct investigations and use the information we get to prepare reports to bring to this House. The ... view
