• 26 May 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, you will notice that the Minister is using the word “if”. Parliament deserves an unequivocal answer. Since the matter has been dealt with previously by the Prime Minister and, in any event, he is the overall co-ordinator and supervisor of the functions of the Government Departments, including Ministries, is it in order that we seek your indulgence and request you to direct the Question to the Prime Minister’s Office, so that we can get to the bottom of the matter? The Minister is not able to answer the Question and he is not saying so. He is ... view
• 26 May 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is not normal for the Government to attach police, as workers, to assist a private company. In what circumstances were the police attached to that company? Were they on hire as allowed by the Police Act, or in what circumstances were they attached? view
• 26 May 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, although I have not been given a copy of the answer as is the tradition. I will proceed to ask the Question. view
• 26 May 2009 in National Assembly: asked the Minister of State for Special Programmes:- view
• 26 May 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am very dismayed that the Minister says that there are no plans to buy land for these IDPs. It is true that the plot on which they are is owned by them, but 50 acres for 15,000 people; 3,389 families cannot eke out a livelihood! Could she confirm to the House that the only way those IDPs have been surviving is because her Ministry has been supplying them with food? Could she tell us how much money she has spent on food for those IDPs since they settled there which I believe will be enough for ... view
• 26 May 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is important that the Minister tells this House the amount of money spent on feeding IDPs so far. It would not make sense to spend so much money to support livelihoods when these IDPs could be bought land and in turn be able to look after themselves. Could she tell this House why the Government would not buy land to settle landless IDPs, while it is buying land to settle those in the Mau Complex? Could the Government be consistent with its policies, so that all landless Kenyans know that they have a chance of settling ... view
• 19 May 2009 in National Assembly: asked the Attorney-General: - (a) what is the legal status of each of the 12 Anglo Leasing-related contracts; (b) how many cases have been filed against the Government arising from those contracts; and, (c) what is the current status of each of those cases. view
• 19 May 2009 in National Assembly: asked the Attorney-General: - (a) what the legal status of each of the 12 Anglo Leasing-related contracts is; (b) how many cases have been filed against the Government arising from these contracts; and, (c) the current status of each of the cases. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am asking this Question for the second time. view
• 19 May 2009 in National Assembly: I have no interest to declare. The Member is most misguided! view
• 19 May 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Attorney-General, although with a lengthy answer, has failed to answer the Question. I have asked for the status of all the cases, which he has not given. For instance, in Case No.1, when he was answering part “C” of the Question, he gave us the current status of Petition 390 of 2006 - Nedermar Technology B.V. versus Kenya Anti-Corruption Authority (KACC) and the Attorney- General. He has talked about the case filed in the High Court on 30th October, 2008, the High Court having issued a restraining order and of him having filed a notice of ... view
