It must be remembered that within the Office of the Prime Minister, a specific office was set up to co-ordinate efforts in this particular direction. As a nation, we need to show greater efforts in coming up with alternative energy as opposed to over-dependence on petroleum. Countries that are over-dependent on petroleum all over the world, including the United States of America, go through the same problems that we are going through today. I think ... view
• 19 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: Lastly, allow me to say that some of the issues that have been mentioned here, including the formula of the price that the Ministry has come up with which has been guiding the cost of fuel for three or so months---- However, it is unfortunate that as soon as the formula was put in force, the international cost of fuels immediately started going up.

• 13 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, indeed, I understand the Question. It was about the five kilometre radius.

We have not been able to make any specific allocation for the tarmacking of the roads as requested by the Member of Parliament. However, we undertake to allocate such funds, when they are available, for the repair of those roads. In the meantime, we have been able to allocate some funds for the repair and ... view

• 13 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am surprised the hon. Member who comes from Thika Town, which is actually the beneficiary of one of the biggest infrastructure projects in East and Central Africa can claim that we have not done anything within the constituency. view
• 13 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: However, as I have said before, we are coming up with the road investment plans that will inform all other future developments in the roads sector in the next five years. view
