2 May 2012 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, I talked about the number of lorry loads and not trucks. Again, going back to the question by hon. Konchella, I said there are short-term, medium-term and long-term measures. Long-term measures include the financing of a new sanitary land field which is due to commence between 2015 and 2017. It will have a whole integrated system of garbage collection that looks comprehensively into the issue of solid waste management.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, the contract for Ikutha ESP Market was awarded to Messrs. Rocio Construction Company on 3rd May, 2010, at a tender sum of Kshs8,963,708. However, during the site handover by the council on 5th November, 2010, it was noted that the site was not in vacant possession as there were existing kiosks which needed to be demolished.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I apologize; I do not know why he did not get the answer. I will find out why because the answer was signed on 19th April, which is about a week ago. Due process has started. When a contractor defaults on a contract, termination process begins. The 14-days notice is in place and as soon as we terminate that contract, we will then advertise, so that we can award as quickly as possible.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I do not have the specifics of the Ol Kalou Market. If the contractor disappeared, then I will get the specifics, and, once again, take due action. Basically, we started the Economic Stimulus Projects (ESP) or programmes on the wrong footing. This is because as you remember, they were under the ESP and they first advertized under the Ministry of Finance. Then, once the contract documents came and capacity was not sufficient, they were brought to our Ministry. We have tried our best to ensure that all requirements for a contract to commence are put in place. ...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, what we did undertake was to provide a full report of all the constituencies. It will not be possible to visit 210 constituencies even if we took a day in each, I would still be going round on the visits.
