• 6 Jun 2020 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, we do not know how this social distancing works. That is because when we keep so far away, it cannot be social anymore. But anyway, we will comply with all those guidelines that pertain to COVID-19. The Committee should report on the following: (i) The correlations between quantities of empty bottles and bottle cups supplied to or imported to the said firms and the amount of tax paid for the period. (ii) Whether the said firms and all their directors have been involved in tax evasion in the past and, if so, what action has been taken ... view

• 4 Jun 2020 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I just want to quickly say that there is need to infuse some constitutionalism in this Bill. The Constitution states that national roads are owned by the Kenya National Highways Authority (KeNHA). That is missing here.
