• 29 Mar 2011 in National Assembly: On 3rd December 2010, on behalf of the Permanent Secretary, a Mr. Mulandi wrote back to Moses Ololuya acknowledging and saying that investigations will be done and they will be able to answer. I am therefore surprised that the Assistant Minister is denying that he is not aware that there is a contingent of Administration policemen posted to take sides in the dispute. view
• 29 Mar 2011 in National Assembly: Could the Assistant Minister clarify this? view
• 29 Mar 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, did you hear the Minister now admit that the police are at the airstrip, which is private property, where the owners have clearly said they want them withdrawn? I want to bring to the Minister’s attention, because he does not appear to want to answer in a candid manner, that on 13th May, 2005, the then Permanent Secretary in charge of Internal Security, one Cyrus Gituai, wrote to Mr. Ndolo, the then Provincial Commissioner (PC) Rift Valley, concerned about the activities of one Bond Nielsen in this branch. He was saying that he has a contingent of ... view
• 29 Mar 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. In view of the seriousness of the issue, would I be in order to request that as the Minister investigates, the Committee on Administration and National Security of this House also carries out investigation, because the Minister and his people have been unable to get to the bottom of the matter since 2005 to date? view
• 29 Mar 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I have two issues from the Minister’s answer, namely, that the fluoride levels are 0.1 milligrams above the normal standard and that the sewerage in Naivasha is insufficient and efforts to rehabilitate it in the last three years have not worked. What is the Minister doing to ensure that the people of Naivasha get portable water? Secondly, when is she going to make sure that a new sewerage system or expansion of the existing one is carried out? view
• 29 Mar 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise to seek a Ministerial Statement from the Minister of State for Provincial Administration and Internal Security with regard to the current status or progress report on Kenyans who were renditioned to Uganda last year, and who are being held in connection with the Kampala bombing. They have already been arraigned in court. The case has not commenced for over six months. I would like the Minister to let the House know why Kenya cannot have those Kenyans, who were illegally renditioned to Uganda, repatriated back to Kenya and, if at all there is evidence, tried ... view
• 29 Mar 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, if the hon. Member heard me correctly, I am asking for a progress report. I do not think a matter being in the Committee--- The question is to the Minister and not to the Committee. I do not believe that an hon. Member or the House can be barred from transacting business merely because a Committee is investigating it. The processes are complimentary and I would appreciate being given an indication as to when it may be answered. I have no quarrel with the Office of the Prime Minister that co- ordinates all the relevant Ministers asking, ... view
• 23 Mar 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I have agreed to the Minister’s request subject to the Speaker’s approval that it be answered next week on Tuesday. However, I am available to ask the Question. I am given to understand that the Minister had travelled and he has just arrived. view
• 23 Mar 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. You have heard the Vice-President say that he takes a” serious view of this matter”. We also take a serious view of this matter and the only way to start this Session in the right way is to sanction those who have failed to appear this morning. Would I be in order to request the Chair to sanction the Minister, and anybody else, who has failed to come for the Questions? These Questions have been placed on the Order Paper while our Questions have been slotted for another day. It is ... view
• 23 Mar 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I join in thanking the Vice-President and Minister for Home Affairs for answering the Question. The way forward, in cases where the answers are provided, is not to keep the Members waiting, but move on to a more comprehensive answer. I will take mid-February to be about 15th February, when this occurred. If samples have been taken for analysis, today is 23rd March, one month after, the analysis must be ready. This shows lack of seriousness on the part of the Ministry concerned not to attach the analysis to the answer. Could he undertake to let ... view
