• 1 Dec 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. I want to align myself to the sentiments expressed by Hon. (Dr.) Otiende Amollo, especially on the issues relating to the Court of Appeal and other issues pertaining to lawyers. The reason I am doing this is because I am often a very diligent Member. I have not had time to look critically at those amendments for the same reasons that Hon. (Dr.) Oundo has said that, sometimes, the amendments are too many and with our multiple roles including constituency roles, it becomes very difficult, and sometimes almost intimidating to even ... view
• 1 Dec 2020 in National Assembly: are no longer protecting fishermen. Instead, they are the ones who are harassing fishermen. What we are doing here is trying to beef up their capacity, but their capacity is being beefed up to harass fishermen. So, I am not persuaded by this amendment because we are not going to be beefing up their strength when their strength is being used to harass fishermen. As a House, we need to put them on notice because this is a new institution. If they continue that way, the same House that set them up can cause them to disappear. That is because ... view
• 1 Dec 2020 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I am requesting that we get the electronic page so that we are able to follow even as they are moving the amendments. In the past, because we have been using the manual one or the hard copy, we could tell the specific electronic page even when Hon. Ichung’wah is talking to his amendment. When Kimunya is speaking, what is the electronic page so that we are able to follow? view

• 1 Dec 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I am not too sure whether the amendments that have been proposed by the Chairman of the Committee deal with my issue. view
• 1 Dec 2020 in National Assembly: Okay. Thank you. Can I, please, know from the Chair the page where the amendment is in the Order Paper, so that I can check whether it relates to mine? view
• 1 Dec 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Chairman. My proposed amendment only relates to (e), which is on the four persons with two of either gender representing small holder tea growers from the East and West blocks. I introduced East and West block because of the way it is currently worded. It is not so clear because when you say “tea The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 1 Dec 2020 in National Assembly: growing areas”, that is not clear. So, if his amendment passes, then I am happy because that will be catered for. My only concern is his amendment in relation to the early amendment that has been proposed by the Chair of the Committee. I do not know whether they have looked at the amendments together because then he is adding more. In case it is going to clash, so that my amendment does not get lost, then perhaps we can go sub-section by sub-section. This is in the event his amendments clash with those of the Chair of the Committee. view
• 1 Dec 2020 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move: THAT, Clause 9(a) of the Bill be amended by deleting the words “the permission of the chairperson” appearing immediately after the words “the Board without” and substituting therefor the words “notifying the chairperson”. A member of the board absents himself or herself by notifying the chair, but not seeking permission. It is children who seek permission. At our level, we notify. That is good governance practice. view
• 1 Dec 2020 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I wish to oppose that amendment. We want to include young people instead of increasing the number of years of experience to ten. By five years, what else do you need to learn? A person with five years’ experience is good enough to be an executive for purposes of promoting young people. view
