• 9 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Chairman, Sir, I want to confirm that we have consulted the Assistant Minister and agreed that I withdraw my proposed amendment to Clause 2. view
• 9 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Sorry, Mr. Chairman, Sir. The reason I did not stand up is that there is a proposed amendment to be moved by Dr. Manduku. I thought we are in agreement with that. view
• 9 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Chairman, Sir, it appears that the Clerk-at-the-Table is not taking us through the proper procedures. None of those two clauses, as per the Bill, has been proposed for adoption or even--- view
• 9 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Chairman, Sir, as you may have seen in the Order Paper, I have proposed to move an amendment, but having withdrawn my proposed amendment in Clause 2, it, therefore, becomes unnecessary to have my proposed amendment here. I, therefore, withdraw it in favour of the amendment by the Minister. view

• 9 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Chairman, Sir, even if one looks at the title of the Bill: Tobacco Control Bill, then you come to the issue of growing--- I think we are extending the functions of the Board to an area that, obviously, would be ill-equipped to handle not withstanding the membership of the Board. Mr. Chairman, Sir, it is enough that we have production. It reflects the general thrust of the Bill. I want to plead with Dr. Manduku to withdraw his proposed amendment. Like we have done with the rest, we have negotiated. view
• 9 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Chairman, Sir, I am also withdrawing my proposed amendment. I was only proposing to replace the word "Board" with "Committee". view
• 9 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Chairman, Sir, I think we need to appreciate the point which is being made by the Committee, through Dr. Manduku. Mr. Chairman, Sir, there are arrangements by various tobacco companies. They come and do their packaging and all production processes here in Kenya. What Dr. Manduku is trying to do is this: Since we have products which are actually manufactured here for export, the moment we start labelling them "made in Kenya," we are actually exposing those companies to stop producing in Kenya. I know that there are those agreements, but we do not have to stamp the products. ... view
• 9 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Chairman, Sir. As a matter of procedure, we have rejected the proposed amendment but we have not even approved the Clause. view
