We have said in this House before that for a Bill such as this to come to the Floor of the House, it must be constitutional. ... view
• 1 Mar 2017 in National Assembly: Something must be out of order. view
• 1 Mar 2017 in National Assembly: I sit in that Committee and I am one of those that are regularly there in spite of many things that I do. The Bill is talking about the CJ while the amendment is talking about his deputy. I have no problem with both of them.

Thank you for allowing us to come back to the Committee of the whole House. I also thank my senior, the Member for Garissa Town and Leader of the Majority Party. He forgot why I was in the Ouko inquiry. I am always in the Ouko inquiry. I was in the other Ouko inquiry and now I am in this Ouko inquiry. Other than Sam Chepkong’a, I am probably one of the senior- most lawyers ... view
• 1 Mar 2017 in National Assembly: agreed to delete the amendments that he is proposing in part (iii) which include 1A and 1B. We will retain his proposal in parts (i) and (ii). I will explain shortly. The reason why I have been moving up and down is that I have been at pains to save young lawyers and particularly in-house lawyers. I am trying to save all the young people who are lawyers and are helping us in Bunge and those in corporations, authorities, the Office of the Attorney-General and wherever else they are. In the manner it was structured before, if a lawyer does ... view

• 9 Feb 2017 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. Before we consider this amendment, I would wish to plead to the owner of this amendment to include two words which are very important. In Sub-section (3), the Cabinet Secretary shall submit a report in form of a Sessional Paper on a privatization proposal approved by the Cabinet to the National Assembly for consideration and approval. Without those words “and approval”, the National Assembly is only just going to consider and when we consider, it will only be noted. view
• 9 Feb 2017 in National Assembly: Because the owner of the amendment could have done a further amendment. The owner of the amendment can do a further amendment so that we deal with the further amendment first. view
• 9 Feb 2017 in National Assembly: On a point of order, even as we are talking about English, we must talk about Standing Orders. There has been a proposal by the Member for Kanduyi for further amendment. That can only be disposed after it has been seconded. view
