• 1 Dec 2020 in National Assembly: I would like to have clarification from the Chair. Is Clause 24ZC (3), which says “The levy on tea imports shall be charged at a rate of one hundred per centum of the value of the imported teas” correct? Is it 100 per centum? Let me get some clarification. Is 100 per centum a levy? view

• 1 Dec 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. With a lot of respect for my Commissioner, why should we enact a law where if somebody feels violated… I am not a lawyer but, is it possible for us to put provisions in this Act for somebody who feels violated?

Currently, the KTDA and the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries are in vicious ... view
• 1 Dec 2020 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I have no major problem with this amendment by my friend, Hon. Gichimu, but there have been complaints all the time that the East Block, which comprises of counties in Kiambu, Murang’a, Nyeri, Embu, Tharaka-Nithi and Meru, fetches more tea prices than the West Block.

That is because we feel frustrated by the Executive and yet, we are supposed to oversight it as a House. I raised a Question here three months ago about a bridge that was swept away by floods in May. The two wards are still disconnected since the bridge on that tarmac road was swept away. I have tried to follow up on this matter with the Departmental Committee on Transport, Public Works and Housing and the Clerk asked me to check for ... view
• 15 Oct 2020 in National Assembly: Hon. Deputy Speaker, thank you. Now that the Chair of the Departmental Committee on Education and Research is in the House, he should engage the TSC on this matter at a national level. There are many principals who are transferred and the deputy principals are left to act as principals. When they act for a year or two, they are not remunerated or promoted to principals for the extra work. view
• 15 Oct 2020 in National Assembly: So, this is an opportunity we have and the matter should be addressed as a national matter. A Report should be brought to the House for further discussion. view
