• 19 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: motion about their responsibilities - that this is what you are supposed to do. Partly, this is what is causing all the problems in the country whereby members did not get explanations with regard to their exact roles at the start of the session after elections. What happened is that the governors and embers of the county assemblies were sworn in and started debating without knowing the process of how to do legislation. But this would also help them especially at the county levels, where they should not to be intimidated by the governors. If this goes down, they will ... view

• 18 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I do not intend to interrupt my good friend as he is moving the Bill. However, my concern is that this is a very important Bill that we are discussing and it involves money. But the Committee has not tabled its report. I do not know whether there is a section of the Standing Orders that allow them to do so. This is a very crucial Bill in the National Assembly for us to understand what they have discussed and what they have come up with so that we debate from an informed position. I ask ... view
• 18 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: and give a direction on that. It is very critical for us. This is a big thing for us to discuss. I have taken my time and gone to Room 8 and checked with the Table Office but the report is not there. Thank you, Hon. Speaker. view
• 18 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker for giving me a chance to support this Bill. When I went through this Bill, it had very serious flaws.

If the Government is serious on these issues, it should have one policy. You are creating ... view
• 18 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: will not complete the project. They will be coming every day. You will create another market where people will be going to make money when you think you are helping others. Whoever came up with this, it does not help to do that in all fairness. Somebody may come in with a left-hand vehicle with 3000 cc and get an exemption letter. How sure are you that when he gets that 3000 cc vehicle he will not change the documents? We have seen this happen. We are on the internet. As far as I am concerned, this has to be ... view
• 18 Aug 2015 in National Assembly: I have a problem with the Insurance Act increasing the amount. The problem is not the capital, but is the management of what is happening in the insurance industry; what people call ambulance chasers, namely people who make false claims. This is where the problem is. The problem is not the capital. The problem is fraud, which needs to be addressed, so that people are able to start businesses and grow them. If the issues of corruption and fraud are addressed--- You do not solve the issues of fraud and corruption by increasing the amount of insurance capital when we ... view
• 2 Jul 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I had put in a question to be answered; unfortunately, I will not be in next week. Can I ask that this question be postponed, so that it can be answered when I am available? view
