• 15 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, where there are no issues, we should not take long at all. Unfortunately, in a majority of the cases, there are issues because so long as there is an existing nominated councilor who is being removed from a position, then there are issues of process servers for the existing nominated councilor to be served. But in the case of deceased nominated councilors, there are no issues. So, we are able to proceed pretty expeditiously. view
• 15 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Part “c” of the Question asks: “When will the Minister intervene with a view to resolving the land dispute”. You can see that if there is any land dispute, it involves some inter-Ministerial matters, which are normally co-ordinated by the District Commissioner. I think the directive we have given is sufficient. Even if the hon. Member is not satisfied, he should note that this is an issue that will be co-ordinated by various Ministries. He can direct the issue to the office of the Prime Minister. Next Question. view
• 15 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am not aware that the Government Printer has the capacity to object instructions from the Minister of Local Government. Thank you. view
• 15 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, as you can understand, the two cases that the hon. Member is referring to over here, one, we do have instructions or communication from the IIEC and for that, we will take action. We still do not have communication for Mr. Jackson Apenyu Imana. I think it is on record that the Minister has certain capacities. One, he can make requests but not issue instructions on payments of councilors. Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. view
• 1 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, first, let me apologise for not being in the House on time. I am normally able to make an estimate of how I can get view
• 1 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the clearance certificates indicate that the Council has no debt whatsoever, as far as the LAP Trust is concerned. Probably, the problem might be with the remittance from LAP Trust to the pensioners. I would appreciate if we could get the particular people who have not been paid and have very specific answers as to why they have not been paid. view
• 1 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, much as the question might not be specific to this particular case, I concur that there was instruction that by 30th June, 2010, all outstanding dues, in terms of pension funds across the country, should have been paid. I will urge hon. Members to, through raising Questions in this House or by raising specific cases, get in touch with us, if there have been problems. Sometimes, councils might give misleading information by saying that they have remitted the funds. If they have remitted funds, there might be some miscommunication between the LAPRO Fund and LAP Trust, ... view
• 30 Nov 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, we can give the Statement on Tuesday next week at 2.30 p.m. view
• 25 Nov 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. My Ministry has gazetted a National Steering Committee and Taskforce on devolved governments and the supplementary information is on the gazette notice which I will lay on the Table of the House. The Steering Committee and the Taskforce will consult widely so that the recommendations that will be brought to the House for legislation reflect the wishes of Kenyans on devolved Governments.
