• 4 Dec 2018 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this is a very important Bill because, currently, we are operating under The Roads Act, 2007. In fact, the Constitution requires that we disaggregate the county and national roads. That is contained in the Bill. As alluded to by my colleague, Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr., the issue before us is how much of the fuel maintenance levy should go to the counties and other authorities. Whenever we are confronted we say: “We have no law, let the law be in place.” We will reach that point and there will be no law, because we are about ... view
• 4 Dec 2018 in Senate: Thank you very much Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I also support the Motion. The only question that comes to my mind is: How can everybody be away? view
• 4 Dec 2018 in Senate: The Motion says that the Deputy Speaker will be away, yet he is here. view
• 4 Dec 2018 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Senator is capable. However, I think in terms of managing this House‟s business, in future we should avoid a situation where all Members of the Speaker‟s Panel are away. I thank you. view
• 4 Dec 2018 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I support the Motion. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate. view
• 4 Dec 2018 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker, for giving me a chance to contribute to this Bill; The County Governments Retirement Scheme Bill (National Assembly Bills No.10 of 2018). This is a Bill to put in place a retirement benefits scheme to establish the County Government Retirement Scheme for employees in the service of the county governments. A number of people working or employed in the county governments were in the Civil Service before, whereas others were from the defunct local authorities. It is important that we have a new retirement benefits scheme for them and, so the Bill addresses that. Perusing ... view
• 4 Dec 2018 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, who are the beneficiaries or what is the membership of this Scheme? Clause 5 of the Bill states that- “A public officer or any other person approved by the Board may become a member of the Scheme under the auspices of a sponsor.” Basically, there are others who are approved, but we do not know. However, for now, these are public officers who work in the county government. This does not, of course, include the Members of County Assembly (MCAs). Initially, my worry was that they were going to bring a scheme which has everybody, including the ... view
• 4 Dec 2018 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, the Bill talks about a Board of Trustees, which is normal. It also proposes to have a Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Scheme under Clause 18.There is also a proposal to have a fund manager – because there will be a fund – under Clause 22(1). The first job of that person will be to implement the investment policy of the Scheme as approved by the Board. Clause 18(2) indicates that the CEO shall be an ex-official of the Board. Clause 22(1) introduces another person called the The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is ... view
• 4 Dec 2018 in Senate: Custodian of the Scheme, who, in addition to the duties prescribed under the Retirement Benefits Act, shall also receive all the contributions. view
• 4 Dec 2018 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, Clause 23 introduces somebody referred to as an Administrator. When the Senate Committee on Labour and Social Welfare will be looking at this Bill, they should look at the relationship between the CEO, Fund Manager, Custodian and also the Administrator. This is because there are quite a number of officials who are involved in this. Maybe this is the nature of retirement benefit schemes. Initially, I was of the view that there are too many officials provided for in this Bill. view
