• 17 Mar 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, let me answer the rest of the questions. I explained in this document that you cannot carry out the Environmental Impact Assessments (EIAs) of all the forests which I read in the schedule which is already with Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. This means, if the EIAs are to be done, they will need time. I have explained which forests EIAs have already been done for. The EIAs conform with the felling plan which has been addressed by all forest agencies. So, it is actually a correct plan. If it needs to be changed, it is not a ... view
• 17 Mar 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I have now understood him clearly. At first, I thought he meant IDPs from other areas of Kenya. However, I now understand he means IDPs who were actually in Mau Forest. In this particular case, the compensation did not go only to IDPs from a certain tribe. All IDPs who were found in Mau Forest were all classified as IDPs and were treated in the same manner. Regarding the issue raised by Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale, as to whether it is acceptable for people to be told to go back simply because it is Jubilee Government, I would ... view
• 17 Mar 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, in the interest of time, as you look at the meaning of the word “misdemeanor”, I request that you also look at Article 62 of the Constitution based on what I submitted in this House. The items which are listed from (f) to (m) are supposed to be administered by the NLC. That includes so many items in Kenya, for example, Government forests, all minerals, all roads, all rivers and lakes, territorial seas, exclusive economic zones, continental shelf, land between high and low water marks and so on. We need to get that advisory from the Chair. view
• 17 Mar 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am requesting that because Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. is contesting that the jurisdiction of the NLC does not include administering all roads, waters--- view
• 17 Mar 2015 in Senate: They are listed in Article 62. My answer is that Article 62(3) means that the NLC is meant to administer all the lands, but not the forests. view
• 17 Mar 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am obliged. I have no problem calling the CS. We have called them even last week. We have no problem as a Committee summoning the CS and even inviting all Members of the Senate. view
• 12 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I rise to respond to a request for a Ministerial Statement sought by Sen. Wangari. view
• 12 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I think we are having a problem here. The Statement which we were about to give yesterday was a different one from this one and even when I saw the Order Paper, since it was left as the last Statement yesterday, I came with the Statement which was sought by Sen. Wangari. I do not want to disagree with the Chair but I beg your indulgence so that I may check if we have received the one for Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. I am sure we had not received it as of yesterday. The electronic version of ... view
• 12 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I have to check it with our clerks because as of yesterday, the Statement for Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. was not ready. However, we had another one for Sen. Wangari, which I promised to give about three days ago. view
• 12 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I quite agree with Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. and I must say we have had three or four Statements from the Ministry of Environment, Water and Natural Sources. Even the one which I had brought yesterday was from the same Ministry. Maybe you could give me until Tuesday. From here, I am going to contact the Cabinet Secretary (CS) so that we have that answer. view
