• 4 Apr 2017 in National Assembly: No. It is very clear. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I am reading what is in Clause 1 of the Appropriation Bill which states that this Act may be cited as the Appropriation Act, 2017 shall come into force on 1st July, 2017. view
• 4 Apr 2017 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I have a lot of regard for the Member for Kibra and I wish that he wins the Kibra seat. I hope he wins the nomination ticket. What he is talking about is the first charge after the Budget is read. This money will pay what has been spent in 2016. That always happens in any budget. All outstanding bills which have been incurred in 2016 shall be paid by the Budget for 2017. That happens every day, you should know. So, I do not know what he is informing me or what is out of ... view
• 4 Apr 2017 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, if we add that again, the amount for bills incurred in 2016 will be first charged in the 2017/2018 Budget and the amount they have shown us as available creates a very bad scenario for the country. It creates a scenario where, I am not sure whether they will pay even salaries because we have the national debt which must be paid first. view
• 4 Apr 2017 in National Assembly: There is a serious challenge when I look at Appropriation Bills. But, my main concern is in infrastructure because the Jubilee leadership has been going round, have come to Kisii and even made some people to defect to Jubilee Party believing that they are going to get money for roads. The Appropriation Bill gives us a clear picture of where we are. We may not have included the funds for county governments. The county governments are separate and independent from what we are discussing today. But, what worries me in the Appropriation Bill is in the Ministry of Health. A ... view
• 4 Apr 2017 in National Assembly: We should do a comparative analysis of this Appropriation Bill with that of the previous year on how much money was collected and how it was used. We cannot all the time, and I stated this when the Budget was read, have an Appropriation Bill giving us estimates for only this year alone. They should give us the Appropriation Bill for 2016 to see how each ministry was allocated funds and how the funds were spent. Without comparison, it does not give us a clear purpose or clear picture where we are headed to and what is happening in the ... view
• 4 Apr 2017 in National Assembly: I will support this Bill, but I have a challenge. When you look at the Appropriation Bill and look at the national debt, pay the pending bills first--- We pray for the country to go through The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.

• 4 Apr 2017 in National Assembly: peaceful and fair elections and have enough funds allocated to the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) to conduct free and fair elections so that the winner accepts the results. view
• 4 Apr 2017 in National Assembly: I support this Bill as it is, but I have a challenge on the Appropriation Bill in relation to the Budget Estimates. We also need to be clear where we are and where we are going and what we need to do. view
• 4 Apr 2017 in National Assembly: With those few remarks, I support. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. view
• 4 Apr 2017 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for allowing me to contribute to this extremely important Bill. It is important in the sense that for the first time since Independence, this is just a campaign gimmick. It is indicated that marginalised areas will receive funds for water, health facilities, roads and electricity. If these funds are going to be available at all, the first question is whether they will be available through the national Government or the county governments. We have to be very clear as to who will be in charge of the funds. Who will ensure implementation of the ... view
