• 26 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I do not understand how my colleague is telling us about an agenda in Cabinet. Are we also saying that Parliament is also constrained by what is likely to come out in the Cabinet? view
• 26 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, given what the women of this House have gone through this evening, we are very happy. I just want to record my support for this eminently qualified Kenyan woman. view
• 25 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a)Yes, I am aware that farmers in Migori are planting without DAP fertilizer from the NCBP depot due to slight delay in transportation. However, I want to assure the hon. Member that DAP will be available in the NCPB depot in Migori and the region by Friday next week. However, I am not aware of maize seed shortage for the Migori region as the region requires medium to low altitude varieties that is H513 and PH4, which have not been in short supply at all in the region or in the country. There ... view
• 25 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I was well aware that I was answering a Question which I had adequately answered on the 28th of March. Nevertheless, I thought that it was better to answer it once more. The short answer to this is that we always endeavour to make sure that fertilizer is in the country on time. However, a lot of this is dependent on what is happening in the high seas and sometimes the local transport.

• 25 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the subsidized fertilizer is for the whole country. If for some reason there are some depots where it has not arrived, we need to know so that we can supply. It is not for western Kenya only. It is for the whole country. view
• 25 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, if he wants the price for fertilizer, it has not changed for the last four years. It is the same. We have not increased it and I can give you statistics if you want. As for the seed, you will have to give me time to bring you that answer. view
• 25 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, that will be done on request, but at the moment the funding we have is for the fertilizers that I have mentioned. I suspect that the rice farmers have not come to us because they are entitled to buy what we have at subsidized price. I cannot give the hon. Member the figures because I did not come with them. I was not requested to do so. However, I can supply them on request. view
• 25 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is absolutely positive. It is adequate and you can quote me on that. view
• 25 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady. The amendment being proposed by Mr. K. Kilonzo had been proposed by Mr. Kapondi. He proposed that Clause 11(d) be delete and he also proposed the word “prosecution” in Clause 11(k) be deleted. It has been taken care of by Mr. Kapondi. view
• 23 Aug 2011 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for giving me an opportunity to support this Procedural Motion. Since we have passed the Procedural Motion on extension of sitting time, we will not be doing this House a service if we shall not support the shortening of the publication period for these Bills, so that we can have business to conduct within the extended period. Whatever has been done to these Bills is for the good of everybody in this country. It is not for the good of any individual, but for the good of everybody. The Bills are drafted according ... view
