• 25 Sep 2018 in Senate: increase in operations and maintenance of county assemblies as contained in the Gazette Notice of 2018--- view
• 25 Sep 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, this was also meant to deal with committee sitting allowances – which were actually not taken into account by the CRA – to be based on 12 months and not 10.5 months, as already learnt. Therefore, this matter was exclusively dealt with during the budgeting process. In fact, if the hon. Senator remembers, Schedule 4 of the current County Allocation of Revenue Act (CARA) details both the recurrent expenditure ceilings for the county executives and for the county assemblies. There is nothing beyond that, which we can actually deal with in terms of county assemblies. As far ... view
• 25 Sep 2018 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the issue raised by the hon. Senator relates to the Financial Year 2018/2019. That budget has not yet been implemented; we are just starting now. I cannot be questioned about the implementation of the budget when we have not yet started implementing it. We will do so in due course. We are looking at how to follow budget implementation with the Treasury and the counties as we go forward. It is, therefore, not in order for Sen. Sakaja to think that I should be talking about implementation because the question---. view
• 25 Sep 2018 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this is in relation to the matter which the Member asked in terms of the ceilings for county assemblies. After discussing with the Commission on Revenue Allocation (CRA), we struggled to make sure that the budget ceilings for expended items of recurrent for county assemblies were done and put in Schedule Four of County Allocation of Revenue Act (CARA) which is the law in place now. It is also in the Cash Disbursement Schedule which we sent the other day. So, as far as the Committee is concerned, this matter has been dealt with. We increased ... view
• 25 Sep 2018 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, as far as I am concerned, I have answered them. view

• 25 Sep 2018 in Senate: Yes, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. On the same note, in the old regime of answering statements, at some point we stopped. Now that we have a new process, what happens to the pending statements that were requested? Have they lapsed? Do we start afresh? We want guidance from the Chair. view
• 25 Sep 2018 in Senate: Thank you very much, Madam Temporary Speaker, for giving me the chance to contribute to this very important Bill. For a long time now people have been trying to explore for oil in Kenya. It only became a reality last time when we discovered oil in Turkana. Sometimes we were about to discover gas in Lamu. However, oil exploration is a very risky and expensive business. That is why it is important at this stage to have a new law. There was a law before, but it was found to be inadequate. However, because of the presence of the resource ... view
• 25 Sep 2018 in Senate: Senators and take them through. We need the involvement of everybody. Everybody must understand it because it is useful. However, there are a few things that need to be debated before it is enacted. We must understand the consequence of the Bill. It is expected to set out a comprehensive framework for the exploration, development and production of petroleum. The current legal framework is not adequate; that is why it has been brought here, so when you look at it, let us have that in mind. We cannot throw away the Bill because it is impotant. I am surprised that ... view
• 25 Sep 2018 in Senate: Yes, because you have not done your job as a committee. Work on it properly. Please, give this House something to guide the House instead of coming here to oppose it. view
