• 7 Jun 2017 in National Assembly: Administration and National Security. If you delete that clause, what will happen? I am asking this because the law is silent on that matter.

• 7 Jun 2017 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, the Hon. Member for Garissa County does not have her card today and she wishes to speak to this as she is a representative of a county that has hosted refugees for two decades or more. I just wanted to bring that to your attention. She is trying to catch your eye. Clause 35 deals with access to land.
