I would like the Chairman of the Committee to kindly explain because these are Committee amendments and he cannot consult with the hon. Attorney-General and withdraw without consulting and informing the Committee on what basis they are being withdrawn. We received a memorandum from the Law Society of Kenya on why they did not want a tribunal as opposed to the committee that they have and this has issues to do with the independence of lawyers and self regulation. There is a court where when you find erring lawyers you can ... view
• 20 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I know that the hon. Attorney-General is responding to substantive issues that go to the issue of the amendments but I have raised a procedural issue. So, with your guidance, if you could deal with the procedural issues and then the lawyers would like to contribute on the substance of the amendment. view

• 20 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I just want to indicate that I do not agree with the hon. Attorney-General on the Law Society of Kenya’s Act. The Law Society of Kenya gave us views and it was not of the view that this is an issue of a name. Indeed, in the hon. Attorney-General’s contribution, he indicated that this was not an issue of a name and that they are taking control of the work that the Law Society of Kenya does. Given that the Chairman has substantively withdrawn, the only thing I want to indicate is that as a Member ... view
• 20 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I just want to go on record that as a lawyer I cannot sit and be part of the Committee. Indeed, I actually want to tell you that contrary to what people believe in this House, this Committee has been functioning well but when we raise an issue of procedure, it is an issue of procedure and I cannot sit here as a lawyer and be pulled along things that we did not agree as a Committee. Indeed, the hon. Attorney-General has confirmed that we had set certain things pending confirmation ... view
• 20 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Chair, I also wish to support the deletion and in supporting the deletion, I want to agree with the Attorney- General on his sentiments.

• 20 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, first of all, I want to indicate that, personally, I have confidence in this Commission. If it was my choice, I would want the entire team back. Having said so, I am a stickler to procedure. I want to say that this House has a previous ruling on the issue of Justice Ringera. We cannot purport to be putting the Question when an issue of constitutionality has been raised. Indeed, the substantive Chair had raised that issue. At every occasion, I have also raised the issue with the Speaker and, as recently as a week ago, ... view
• 20 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir. I kindly seek your indulgence and request that if we could, please, be told which amendment we are dealing with. This is because I have actually been consulting my other colleagues and even hon. Isaac and hon. Dr. Khalwale do not seem to know. They were giving me different things. Could we, please, just know which one we are talking about right now, so that we know what we will vote on? view
