  • 2 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: On a point of order, hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. With your guidance I think procedurally once we have passed a clause there is a very clear procedure on how we refer back to it. However, once it has been passed and put to Question then we cannot just go back in the manner that we are doing. So, I would want to plead with you that we do not go that way. That is why I was actually careful about the way we were going because we have already passed the entire Clause. So, reopening it in the way we ... view
  • 2 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I stand guided. I know when we deal with issues like this one; sometimes it is a bit confusing, especially in terms of numbering. I know there is confusion about “J” because there is “J” in the parent Bill and also on the Order Paper. Therefore, we are leaving out the “J” in the Bill which is part of the amendment because it is in tandem with his amendment. If we do not cover it, we might lose it and then go back. But I want to congratulate the Chair that you have taken ... view
  • 2 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, my intervention is that these paragraphs are very good and hon. Wamunyinyi has said that they are provided elsewhere without telling us where that elsewhere is. If you are removing them without telling us where else they are appearing, then I would be opposing because these are very good provisions on research, protecting and assisting members of the profession and on educating the public. If it is being removed, where has it been relocated? If it has not been located anywhere I would want to persuade hon. Wamunyinyi not to move this amendment. So, if they ... view
  • 2 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I will take it in good faith that if he said so because he has given an example of one. So I want to take it that he will move the other amendments. view

  • 2 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I support the proposed amendment under that clause. I just wanted to go back to the issue the hon. Member for Kipipiri raised in relation to Clause 10. I would just want to advise that what he is saying makes legal sense except that he came late; he should have pushed an amendment. We are giving the Sarah Serem led commission power that is not theirs in law. If he can persuade the Mover, then we can request your discretion to reopen debate or it be recommitted. We will then move that the words ... view
  • 2 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: If you actually look at the Constitution, the mandate of the Salaries and Remuneration Commission is not to every person who draws from the Exchequer. I just do not have the Constitution but I will read it. I have seen of late we are giving them powers that they do not have constitutionally. The powers are very limited to specific officers. I will just check and get back to you. view
  • 2 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I am supporting very quickly, and also telling the hon. Member that you gave us a very good direction; all these amendments, except the ones hon. (Dr.) Pukose is bringing, are on the same thing. So, you should just stand and say I am moving as per the Order Paper and we support, except for the ones hon. (Dr.) Pukose is bringing. view
  • 2 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: Yes, hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. This is currently done in most of the professions, including legal profession. Therefore, I think it is a good amendment and I support it. view
