• 18 Oct 2022 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I know that some of us are quite new here, but the distinguished Senator who just walked out, Sen. Methu, just crossed the Floor to come to this side. Since we are all learning, all new Senators should be reminded that they have to walk all the way there, bow, and then come here. It is just a point of information. view
• 18 Oct 2022 in Senate: Thank you, Madam, Temporary Speaker. I rise to second the Motion of the consideration of Senators to serve in these three Committees. If you look at all the Order Papers that we have considered since we started the term of this Parliament, you will notice that the Papers Laid revolve around the two Committees that we are considering their Members today. The first Paper Laid out today is the Report of the Auditor General on the Financial Statements of Narok County Executive for the year ended 30th June, 2021. The fourth one is on the Report of the Auditor General ... view
• 18 Oct 2022 in Senate: I want to echo the sentiments of my colleague, the Senate Majority Leader, that those Senators who have been tasked with the mandate to oversight county governments; that mandate is very clear. It calls for you, as a person, to respect the principle of the fiduciary duty. You are tasked with the fiduciary duty to ensure that the work you are doing will continue gaining respect from the members of the public who elected you to serve them in this House. view
• 18 Oct 2022 in Senate: These are committees which require people who are going to commit their time, sweat and blood to make sure we can call for accountability among the 47 counties. I view

• 18 Oct 2022 in Senate: heard my colleagues say that this is a committee that requires all 47 delegations represented. I dare say that all the 47 delegations are actually represented because when a governor is appearing before that Committee, as a Senator for that county, you have the right to be there and to question him. view
• 18 Oct 2022 in Senate: Therefore, not all of us should want to serve in that Committee because only nine of us can do so; five members from the majority side and four from the minority side. I want to reiterate and plead that we should approve these Members so that we can start working. view
• 18 Oct 2022 in Senate: On the issue of delegated legislation, we have seen the work done by the Senator for Mombasa County when we had the statutory regulations were brought for consideration by this House. If it was not for the work which was done by Sen. Faki, a lot of them would have been declared to be unconstitutional. The mandate is quite clear. I invite Senators to look at Standing Order Nos. 193, 194 and 195 so that they can understand their mandate. The other issue is that these committees can be reconstituted at any given time. I know the Standing Orders call ... view

• 13 Oct 2022 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like to inform the Senator that if you read very clearly the same Standing Order No.20 that he read, I think Paragraph 20 (1) will come into effect after the panel has been constituted.

That has been considered by the Committee and has been brought to the Floor ... view
