• 4 Oct 2023 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, and Sen. Osotsi for indulging me. I just wanted to let the distinguished Senator for Vihiga County know that the industrial parks are a joint venture between the county and the national Government. Counties, in their budget-making process, already allocated Kshs250 million and they are the ones responsible for procuring. The national Government will then send funds as conditional grants. That is why the money for the industrial parks is part of the additional allocation we were processing. That is why the respective Cabinet Secretary is launching so that the processes can begin because ... view

• 4 Oct 2023 in Senate: Thank you, Sen. Mwaruma, for allowing me to inform you. In the last sitting of the Cabinet, they directed the Cabinet Secretary to partially lift that moratorium. As it is now, it is partially lifted except for industrial mining which is deemed strategic for natural resources and other issues. I thought you should know that bit. view
• 3 Oct 2023 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. view
• 3 Oct 2023 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I rise pursuant to Standing Order No.105. Is it in order for Sen. Tabitha Mutinda to mislead this House and say Turkana County has been receiving grants? As a point of information, from inception, Equalization Funds have never been released to any single county. This is the first attempt. You can have money in the paper, but to have the money reach the counties, it is the first time. We thank His Excellency, the President, that counties have now been able to get their equitable share for the first time, timely and with all the arrears. ... view
• 3 Oct 2023 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I believe Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale did not listen to the total contribution of Sen. Tabitha Mutinda. If you have heard the sentence correctly - and you might need to go back to the HANSARD - you will understand where I am coming from. That notwithstanding, first, let me start by saying that I support this Bill. One, because we are sending additional resources to the counties. For my County of Uasin Gishu, we are going to send an additional slightly above Kshs1 billion. Nevertheless, even as we do this in this Bill and support it, there ... view

• 28 Sep 2023 in Senate: Madam Temporary Chairperson and Hon. Members, I have heard from my colleagues on that matter. However, allow me to persuade them that we retain that Clause. If you look at the composition, we have proposed, as a Committee, to remove the caucus of the Vice Chancellors and put there the Director of Kenya Medical Training College (KMTC) for purposes of training. However, the work of that body is basically to advise the Cabinet Secretary on policy matters. If you look at Sub-Clause 4, it states- “In the execution of its function, the primary health care advisory council shall be guided ... view

• 28 Sep 2023 in Senate: Madam Temporary Chairperson, Sen. Sifuna said that he was waiting for advice from the senior Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale. He has since advised that that Clause is going to cure the mischief that is there in the Bill. I agree that we drop that Clause. view
