• 31 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: I want to thank hon. Laboso for speaking to issues of performance of the Government. It is good to give credit where it is due. I want to give credit on the First Lady’s initiative on maternal health care. In the same vein, I do not see the same commitment on issues of international conventions such as the Convention on Elimination of all Forms of Discrimination against Women. Many of us women here have just come from the United Nations where we were looking at the progress with the Commission on the Status of Women. From the way some of ... view
• 31 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: 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
• 31 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: The other issue I would want the President to put a lot of energy on is the issue of the elderly and the cash transfer programme. Too little is going to the grassroots. The people of Mbita asked me to enquire when this programme will be expanded to cover all the elderly people. Our elderly people are very few. view
• 31 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: I can see my time is running out, but the President apologised for the past injustices, which was a good thing. These past injustices are not only limited to certain areas. They cover the Wagalla Massacre, but also the Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) especially the integrated IDPs. In the past, when people have been compensated, integrated IDPs have not been treated fairly. The money that will be given should cover the integrated IDPs. view
• 31 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I record my thanks with reservations. view
• 25 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you. I beg to support. Because hon. Members have spoken a lot, I just want to add my voice to the concern that the fiscal capacity and efficiency of the county governments is wanting and there is no data on it. Hon. Members have indicated that we are concerned even as we are increasing the monies to the counties and especially the conditional grants on the healthcare system which is a plus especially for women and children. My concern is that the way our counties are running is worrisome. Those of us who are representing constituencies, we know that ... view
• 25 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: were to equate it with what the Homa Bay County Government is getting, it is almost six times what I am getting in my constituency and yet, you cannot see evidence of what the Homa Bay County Government is doing that is comparable with the amount of work that we are doing as Members of Parliament. Therefore, I will only take this Government seriously when we see it striking the whip on corrupt governors. Many of us have fought for many years for this devolved system of governance, and there are people who want to waste it. Look at the ... view
• 5 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: On a point of order, hon. Speaker. view
• 5 Mar 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker. I rise under Standing Order No. 95(2). I wish to move that the Question be now put. view
• 26 Feb 2015 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker for indulging me. I am a member of the Committee on Agriculture, Livestock and Cooperatives. I am glad you have raised that issue and I just want to put it on record that all the Members of the Committee are of the same view as hon. Wandayi. The issue of delaying that Report almost brought Members of the Committee to blows. We had, however, said that for purposes of ensuring that we have a proper and credible Report, we were going to wait for a report from the auditors. Based on the report of the auditors, ... view
