• 20 Nov 2018 in Senate: be left for local companies that want to venture into projects and partner with the national Government or county governments. However, any time you are dealing with a project that involves risks of exchange of currencies, then it is important that they are clearly defined. Before a county government submits their list of the approved projects to the Cabinet Secretary for approval, it is important for the public to be involved and to get their views on them. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I hope that it will be important to introduce amendments to these amendments, so that we can take ... view
• 20 Nov 2018 in Senate: there is much that we have learnt. This House will be debating the fiduciary risk involved. It is important for the Committee to consider the need to reintroduce Section 54, which they are proposing that it should be deleted, and also come up with a risk mitigation strategy in the amendments that they are bringing in. Tough regulations will ensure that despite the long term aspect of the project, the interests of the public and private sectors are always protected. I am very worried by the issue of expertise. This is because when the private sector invests a lot of ... view

Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to limit my remarks on three issues.

• 15 Nov 2018 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I stand guided. Martin Luther King once said that in the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends. The most important issue here is the issue of fiducial responsibility. The question which we were tasked as a Committee is to investigate whether public lost money. That is the task we were given and that is what we set out to do. As a Member of that Committee, I had anticipated that once we conclude our investigation, we would be able to bring our report to this House ... view

• 15 Nov 2018 in Senate: have a situation where as the Accounting Officer pressure is put from all corners, the next move Dr. Belio Kipsang did was to write the CS, then Dr. Fred Matiang’i and Treasury about the findings of the task force. However, I do not understand what made the CS to ignore the report and the recommendations of the taskforce. Subsequently, according the documentation presented by Dr. Belio Kipsang when he appeared before us, the transaction proceeded. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, when we look at the current Land Act and the process of compulsory acquisition, there is a particular process that ought ... view
