  • 1 Mar 2017 in Senate: Let me dispose of the points of order first, and then, you can have a joy ride if you wish. Sen. Sang, is it the same? view
  • 1 Mar 2017 in Senate: Sen. Kagwe is raising an important point of law. So, I do not think there is any contradiction, dispute or subverting the Speaker on the issue. It is an important point of law. I do not want to preempt what I will say later. If your problem is that the Speaker has already approved it, and then, that would not be a valid point of order for my purposes. Sen. Okong’o, what was your rider? view
  • 1 Mar 2017 in Senate: But this is your statement. All you want to know is whether or not it would be committed to a Committee. That should be your interest. I do not want to have an altercation on this issue. So, what was your rider? The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only.

  • 1 Mar 2017 in Senate: I find that very difficult. My attitude has mainly been--- The trouble of having people seeking to ride on other people’s statements is that, a lot of time, it tends to dilute that statement that is issued on a specific matter that has been raised. Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale wants to know about Bukhungu Stadium. He has raised several specific issues on that stadium. If you talk about Manga Stadium, I do not know what issue you have with it. You would have to seek a statement so that you can get a substantive and specific answer to the issues that ... view
  • 1 Mar 2017 in Senate: But you have not disposed of this one. Sen. Madzayo, when will you give an answer to this? view
  • 1 Mar 2017 in Senate: Sen. Madzayo, I am sure I am allowed to respond to you in English although you spoke in Kiswahili. This is a renewal of a request for the statement. If I got it right, Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale said that he had sought it first in September last year. Sen. Madzayo, had you received an answer to this statement when it was first sought?

  • 1 Mar 2017 in Senate: What was the problem? How long had you been given? view
  • 1 Mar 2017 in Senate: Although given in fluent Kiswahili, that kind of answer is very unsatisfactory. I am not dealing with Members of the Committee. I am dealing with the Committee. You are the Chairperson of that Committee. It is also not right for you to tell me to ask the Vice Chairperson. That is unprocedural and in my view, very unparliamentary. You are the Chairperson of that Committee. You should have information. If you do not, you should say you do not and leave it at that, but you cannot refer me to somebody else. That is wrong. You must take responsibility for ... view
  • 1 Mar 2017 in Senate: Sen. Madzayo, in the first instance, I would give you seven days to clarify the position. You do not seem to be clear on whether the answer had been given or not. Give us a holding answer if you cannot give a full answer to the statement. What is your point of order, Sen. Khaniri? view
  • 1 Mar 2017 in Senate: Apart from the fact that Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale seems quite satisfied to be referred to as such, it is totally out of order. The way you should address your colleagues is quite clear in the Standing Orders. Sen. (Dr.) Machage, what is your point of order? view
