• 2 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: The Bill as it is currently crafted provides that there shall be a chairperson who shall be appointed by the President on the recommendation of the CS but the vice-chairperson shall be appointed at every meeting. I have never seen a place where the vice-chair is appointed in every meeting. There is always a permanent vice-chair who is usually elected by the members. My proposed amendment is to give the members the opportunity to elect a permanent vice- chairperson and they can provide a procedure for his removal. You cannot have a new vice- chairperson in every meeting. It does ... view

• 2 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I have two amendments. On one, Hon. Ochieng’ has explained that we are talking about a presiding officer which in his sense is de facto vice-chair. When a presiding officer is appointed, it then means that in every sitting where the chair is not there, they will appoint a new person. So, in effect, it is de facto and not de jure . Secondly, I am asking that in the event where the chair is not there… view
• 2 Jul 2019 in National Assembly: Let me demystify. De facto basically means that in practice that person will be acting as a vice-chair because he takes over the position of chair in the absence of the chair. De jure means that if we provided for it in law as a vice-chair, then it would be by law. But, de facto even if you say presiding, he will be a vice- chair. My point of order was that can we move them one by one. The one on the zebra, then the other one. I am not withdrawing my amendment, even if I am the only ... view
