• 8 Aug 2023 in Senate: In fact, more Clauses on saving have been put in the Land Act. There are counties that used to collect revenue in a certain way and disregarded that in the PFM Act. I implore upon the Committee Chair and his able Members to look at the entire PFM Act. They should not just rush to deal with the issue of changing names from national debt to public debt. It is imperative that we look at the entire financial management of this country by the counties and the national Government. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, because of time, I support. view

• 3 Aug 2023 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is Standing Order No.105. The distinguished Senator is a Member of the Committee on Finance and Budget. Is he not?

So, I am rising on an issue of statement of fact and the importance of ensuring fiduciary to the rule of law. That is my essence of rising on that point of order. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I appreciate you trying to correct or maybe put certain things in order, but it is also of ... view
• 3 Aug 2023 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, I thank you very much. Let me welcome the students from Lorna Laboso Secondary School. This is a very special school. I remember going there with the late governor for a fundraiser for the school. It is an amazing school. I will tell the students that the lady whom the school was named after had a vision. The sister also came in and had a vision to support you. You have now come to the Senate to see the kind of work that we do here. When we debate, we are debating not because of our own ... view
