• 24 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: know where we are coming from, as a country. What is important is for us to pass this Report the way it is and bring the amendments later. We have one year to the general elections. view
• 16 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. I would like to point out one thing about sharing of revenue. The Kenya Civil Aviation Authority (KCAA) cannot work effectively without getting enough funding. It needs a lot of money to train manpower, buy equipment and cover all that they require. Unless the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) Act is amended, you cannot amend this section of the Civil Aviation Act. At the moment, the KRA collects all the revenue at the airport. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained ... view
• 16 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: It is guided by an Act which this House passed. If we amend the section on how revenue will be shared without amending the KRA Act it will not work. I will propose an amendment during the Committee of the whole House to amend the KRA Act so that it can be in line with the Civil Aviation Act. If we do not do that, it will not work. Another issue is about the board of directors. If you look at who will be the board members, you will find that the independence that the KCAA wants will not be ... view
• 16 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me a chance to support this very important discussion about the Adoption of the Report of the PAC. I want to lay one emphasis on the wastage of funds. We have unsupported expenditure of Kshs66 billion. I am going to talk about the Ministries which have got more than Kshs1 billion unaccounted for. The Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Fisheries was not able to produce documents for more than Kshs1.2 billion. The Ministry of Education, Science and Technology was not able to produce documents for Kshs12.8 billion. The Ministry of Energy and ... view
• 16 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: not approved by Parliament? What system was used to procure those items? It is a critical issue. It amounts to economic sabotage because you are spending what you do not have, which is illegal. The person who is most hurt is the contractor, supplier or service provider who is not going to be paid. Another area which is of concern is where people spend more money than what they have. Kshs24.5 billion was spent without the authority of Parliament. It means there was no money to pay. That is the message here. If there is excess expenditure, you do not ... view
• 16 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Exchequer is always to blame. This has been a tradition since Independence. It encourages people to procure goods in the months of May and June. With those few remarks, I support. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. view
• 11 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, thank you for giving me a chance to contribute to this Bill. It is a much improved Bill compared to the previous one. When we go to the Committee of the whole House, I would like Clause 7 of the Bill to be amended, for it to be more effective and serve its purpose. Under Clause 7, the President appoints the Chairman, the Board appoints the Director- General, and the Principal Secretaries in charge of civil aviation, national security and the National Treasury are members. It also says that the Cabinet Secretary will appoint four other ... view
• 11 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: given jobs to get money to take care of themselves, but not to serve the Board. This is a very sensitive issue. The Bill is good but for it to have effect at the end of the day, we need the people who will be in the Board to be employed by the PSC, so that their qualification is assessed and the right person gets the job. view
• 11 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Another issue is about funding which is a key area for the CAA to effectively function. It has not come out very clearly on how it will share the revenue. Currently, we know that the KAA collects the revenue. The KAA is a landlord. When you go to the airport at the moment, the people who check on you come from the KAA. I do not know whether this function should remain with the KAA or should go to the CAA. The KAA checks the personnel who handle the aircraft and ensure that the passengers who have boarded the aircraft ... view
