• 21 Apr 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me an opportunity to contribute to this Bill. At the outset, the three arms of Government are independent of each other, interdependent and also complement one another. This Act will enhance the operational and financial independence of the Judiciary as per the first objective. It will also ensure accountability of funds allocated to the Judiciary and ensure that it has adequate resources to conduct its business. The source of funds for this is mainly from the consolidated account but there also donations and levies that they collect. The Accounting Officer of this ... view
• 21 Apr 2016 in National Assembly: In terms of accountability and monitoring implementation, the Act is very clear that the accounting officer of this Fund is the Chief Registrar. The Fund will be subject to the existing financial regulations and will be audited by the Auditor-General three months after the end of the financial year. That kind of system will address the worries that we have. The bigger worry for Judiciary is the corruption of the system itself. What happens in the corridors of justice is more worrying because of people exchanging money rather than stealing the small resource that is provided. What is proposed here ... view
• 21 Apr 2016 in National Assembly: It is my hope that for areas like mine where justice is delayed and they say justice delayed is justice denied, this Act will bring into effect additional resources to support construction of additional facilities in the form of lower courts and higher courts so that people in this country can get justice wherever they are. view
• 21 Apr 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I support the Bill. view
• 2 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Yes. Thank you, Hon Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity. From the outset, I want to thank the Committee which has come up with the Bill. As has been mentioned, this is one of the Constitutional Bills which had a deadline that was extended last year. Due to that, it is very important that this Bill is disposed off. view
• 2 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: Land in this country is a very emotive issue and is one of the greatest assets that people can have. For me, my concern with this Bill is the issue of the northern part of Kenya, which has large land mass and where most of it is currently trust land. In the Bill, we are talking about community land which may be held as communal land, family or clan land, as reserve land or any other category of land. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained ... view
• 2 Mar 2016 in National Assembly: For those areas which have not had any legal framework of ownership of land, what the Bill lacks is that it talks about community land registration. But it does not talk about community registration for purposes of ownership of land. That, in effect, means that, for those areas - and knowing what Kenyans can do - this becomes a challenge because they already face a lot of challenges and conflict because of border issues. If it is not made very clear in this Bill how the community will be registered, we could have proliferation of people coming up with what ... view
• 25 Feb 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me an opportunity to contribute to this Report. view
• 25 Feb 2016 in National Assembly: At the outset, I oppose this Report, although I am a Member of the Constitutional Implementation Oversight Committee (CIOC). My reasons are as follows:- The Transition Authority was to facilitate the transfer of functions. That process has not been completed because there are many loose ends. The process of devolution faced a lot of challenges from the outset because it was a new system. Even though those challenges still remain, this House has the powers to extend the term of TA. The interaction between TA and Intergovernmental Relations Technical Committee has also been minimal. In my opinion, I do not ... view
