• 1 Dec 2015 in Senate: For purposes of the Senate Minority Leader and those who contested the vote of Sen. Mshenga, I would like to clarify that I have just made an interim ruling to facilitate us to have a substantive time; when the Speaker comes up with his communication, we can argue. I find it very difficult presiding as a Chairperson of the Committee of the Whole stage for us to converse over such weighty and important issues.

• 1 Dec 2015 in Senate: (Sen. (Prof.) Kindiki): Madam Temporary Speaker, I beg to move that The Water Bill (National Assembly Bill No.7 of 2014) be now read a Second Time.

It is also useful for cultural purposes. It is because of this nature of water, being a finite, but critical resource, and being a resource that is needed in very many aspects of human life, that many countries of the world ... view

• 19 Nov 2015 in Senate: (Sen. (Prof.) Kindiki): Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I thank Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale, the Chairperson of the CPAIC for bringing up that matter. I share the same view. I undertake to him and the Senate that I will place that request before the next meeting of the RBC. It is very important that before we go on recess, we debate at least a report of the Auditor-General and Sen.
