• 17 Jul 2019 in Senate: Mheshimiwa Spika, sijabobea katika lugha ya Kiswahili lakini ningependa dada yangu afafanue kile ambacho anachokiita “mzungumzishi” kwa sababu mimi ninajua kwamba wewe ni Mheshimiwa Spika unapoketi hapo. view
• 17 Jul 2019 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I will be very brief and go straight to the point because a lot of the issues I wanted to bring out have already been brought out by my colleagues. I support the amendments in this Bill. I congratulate my sister for coming up with such a timely Bill when we are talking about devolution because service delivery is key. Everyone in this country, regardless of where they come from and their economic position, must get services. One of my biggest problems is to do with austerity measures. When austerity measures are introduced to curb Government ... view
• 17 Jul 2019 in Senate: We should not think of issues of public administration from a central perspective. We are a devolved system of Government and this House must continue defending devolution and all the services that come with devolution. That is the only way for advancement. I support this Bill because a lot of people have been treated unfairly. For example, people wake up in the morning and go to the District Commissioners’ office expecting to receive some services but they are treated in a manner to suggest ‘ uta do’ or where will you take your complain? Knowing that one can complain to ... view

• 17 Jul 2019 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I stand corrected. I was talking of my sister, the distinguished Senator, Sen. Were, who is the sponsor of this Bill.

I had consultations with her earlier on and she informed me that it is because this office is supposed to be merged with the Kenya National Human Rights and Equality Commission Office which has a sunset. We always want services to be delivered to our people. We cannot have a clause that sees the end of this particular office. It is like ... view
• 16 Jul 2019 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker Sir, I am confused and perplexed because we have a Government that now seems to be speaking from the two sides of their mouth. Earlier on, we reduced the taxes which were being paid by these betting companies. However, all of a sudden, without following any due process of the law, an entity comes up and says they are not paying taxes. You give yourself powers that you do not have. view
• 16 Jul 2019 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I rise to support this Statement by Sen. Malalah. It is imperative that, in this country which is governed by the rule of law, we follow that law and not become selective in how we apply the rule of law. If we make a law that reduces the taxes which are being paid by these betting companies, we cannot then turn around and come and say that now we are going to shut down all of them. We need order, and this order can only be brought by this Parliament. This issue where Cabinet ... view
• 16 Jul 2019 in Senate: Finally, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I request the Committee that will handle this matter to interrogate it before coming up with a conclusion. view
