• 27 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I salute and thank the Speaker, who is the Chair of the PSC, for the good work he has done. The work that the present Speaker has placed before the Members of this House is outstanding in the sense that the Commission is coming out very clearly on the welfare of Members. It is coming out very clearly on the issues that face the representatives of the people. As Members, we represent our constituents. That is the quality of work that we need to do in our constituencies. I reiterated the issues of research and legal ... view
• 27 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Government officers rank higher. Members of Parliament do not appear anywhere. Of late, we are almost among the last. When we go for functions, we are not considered anywhere. I support the Bill. view
• 22 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to say that this Bill is very important to us because of the importance of Parliament as an arm of Government. Parliament as an arm of Government has to function very well and efficiently so that it is able to discharge its functions and duties as the representatives of the people and to legislate on issues that affect Kenyans. view
• 22 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: I want to bring to note that this Bill is very important in the sense that when you look at the establishment of Parliamentary Service Commission, this Bill points out exactly how Commissioners come into office.

I remember a number of cases where we wanted to attend to peculiar issues affecting constituencies which are in far flung areas. I want to point out an issue affecting people such as the El Molo people of this country. We have no representative in this Parliament who addresses their issues. If we have a good Research Department, we will know how we can assist them. That will be very good. view
• 22 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: Two, I want to talk about issues of human resource. This is a very important issue which I want to raise before this House. I will bring an amendment on this. This one affects mainly the employment, deployment and recruitment of staff. I want to bring to the notice of Members that although the Parliamentary Service Commission and the Office of the Clerk are supposed to recruit, it is good that we recruit staff to reflect the face of the country and constituencies in this The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version ... view
• 22 Nov 2018 in National Assembly: House. I want to bring to your attention that I have done a research. I have a paper that has separated the number of staff in each constituency in this House and the staff they represent. Majority of the staff in this Parliament come from 50 constituencies. Majority of over 100 constituencies do not even have a single staff. It is not good. The Parliamentary Service Commission should ensure that every constituency is represented here. The employment of staff is supposed to be constituency-based so that in the event that we are recruiting staff, any constituency in far flung areas ... view
