• 15 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Hon. Members, what is provided for is the sitting arrangement. I am trying to look for the point of order which the hon. Member has referred to. But I do remember that the hon. Speaker ruled that, under the circumstances we are in, Ministers and Back-benchers can now mingle in the Front Bench, which is not normally allowed. However, if I may defer the ruling while I am searching for that--- Let us allow the Member to continue from where he is standing right now. That is the microphone near to him. view
• 15 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Hon. Members, I just want to rule on what I had said earlier. We did not want to take sides in the drafts. Yes, it is true that, according to our Standing Orders No.172, all seats on the Front Benches of the Chamber to the right of Mr. Speaker shall be reserved for the exclusive use of Ministers. I am advised that it is for that reason that the microphone on that side belongs to the Ministers and Assistant Ministers. So, in future, that is something that we should be able to note. Proceed, hon. Nyambati! 1824 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES July ... view
• 15 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Order, hon. Nyambati! The time allotted for this debate has now lapsed. I will, therefore, call upon the Minister for Youth Affairs and Sports to reply. view
• 9 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: What is your point of order? view
• 9 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Yes, I think you are in order to ask that question, Dr. Khalwale. This is the first day of our 20 days of the Committee of Supply. I should take this opportunity to say that each Ministry will have two days allotted to them. I would like to mention that for the two days, we expect each Ministry to release documents. I would like to ask the Minister to ensure that by 6.00 p.m. today, we have those documents in the pigeon holes. If she can assure us that, I would like to persuade Members that we continue with this ... view
• 9 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Hon. Members, I want to say that since the Printed Estimates were circulated and each Ministry has two allotted days for debate, I request Members because we cannot afford to lose any of the 20 days, we allow the Ministry concerned to circulate the document by 6.00 p.m. so that at the rise of this House, each Member who will want to contribute tomorrow will have the opportunity. So, I would like to rule that we continue with the Mover and the Seconder. In the meantime, we would like the documents delivered, Madam Minister. Madam Minister, proceed! view
• 9 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: I have ruled, Dr. Khalwale! view
• 9 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: May I just mention the fact that the debate has not yet been opened! Debate will be opened as soon the Seconder finishes. Number two, 1744 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES July 9, 2008 we cannot stop due to the absence of civil servants. I will suggest that we receive the Minister's statement; we receive the Seconder's statement and then, we can debate on whether we should proceed without the civil servants. The debate is not open yet. Madam Minister, please, proceed! view
• 9 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. C. Kilonzo, you are out of order, because when a ruling was made you were not in the House! view
• 9 Jul 2008 in National Assembly: Hon. Members, before we continue with debate, I had promised that the Chair was going to rule on the matters that were raised by Dr. Khalwale, in the absence of the district allocations books and the civil servants. I did promise that in view of the fact that we are receiving statements and support for the Motion, it is at the point of debate that we require both requests that were made by the hon. Member. I, therefore, would like to state that in view of the fact that the district allocations books have not been circulated and the civil ... view
