• 3 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, both hon. Karua and my colleague Professor Anyang’-Nyong’o have referred to the HANSARD of the year 2004 when I was presenting the Anti Corruption and Economic Crimes Bill to this House. Indeed, I did say that time that we were introducing a new democratic culture in this country where senior appointments to Government offices will be vetted by Parliament.
