• 9 Jun 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Assistant Minister has clearly indicated that he has no intention of lifting the ban. I want to confirm to this House that we have small scale saw millers in Eldama Ravine and Koibatek who are able to do value-addition to wood products. However, they have been locked out through the restriction on tree harvesting. Could the Assistant Minister confirm to this House that he is being unfair to local saw millers? view
• 9 Jun 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I also want the Assistant Minister to confirm to this House that one of the directors of the Kenya Forestry Service is actually the owner of the three companies we are discussing, which means that they are harvesting all the trees and have taken over the directorship. They are actually running the Kenya Forestry Services. view
• 26 May 2009 in National Assembly: asked the Minister for Co-operative Development and Marketing:- view
• 26 May 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Minister has indicated that he has no plans to compensate our farmers, while he has paid those guys who plundered the resources of KCC and, therefore, the farmers. You will appreciate that under the Ministry Co- operative Development, there is a Commissioner of Co-operatives, who deals directly with and supervises co-operative societies. I wonder, therefore, what rationale the Minister is using to refuse to compensate the farmers. view
• 26 May 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want to ask the Minister the advice he would like to give to farmers considering that there is now a new KCC which is receiving almost half the milk in this country. What advice does he want to give to farmers, especially those who lost over Kshs593 million in the past? What advice would he give them, so that they may trust him and his Commissioner in future? view
• 5 May 2009 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Now that there is an outbreak of the Swine Flu in some parts of the world, what plans does he have for our pig farmers? What plans does he have to vaccinate the pigs? view
• 4 Dec 2008 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this chance to support this Bill. I am here as a Member of the Fiscal Analysis and Appropriation Committee, where the hon. Mbau is also a member. Therefore, I really want to see this Bill going through. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, when you look at our country, Kenya, you will find that this year, the Government intends to spend about Kshs760 billion. With Kshs760 billion, you will want to ask yourself: To what extent has that impacted on the lives of Kenyans? You will realise that the impact of ... view
• 3 Dec 2008 in National Assembly: asked the Minister for Roads:- (a) whether he could explain the criteria applied in placing roads under the "Roads 2000 Project" as well as the reasons for leaving out Koibatek District in the project; and, (b) whether he could undertake to consider Koibatek District under the 3836 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES December 3, 2008 "Roads 2000 Project" or any other donor-funded project this financial year. view
• 3 Dec 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Assistant Minister has indicated that there are some roads in Koibatek District which are under this strategy. I am not aware of any road in Koibatek District, and I just want him to name, at least, one road which is under the strategy he is talking about. view
• 3 Dec 2008 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Assistant Minister has mentioned a road in my constituency which, to the best of my knowledge, is under the District Roads Engineer, when we know that each constituency receives Kshs17 million from the Kenya Roads Board. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am wondering why the Assistant Minister wants to confuse me and, of course, this House that there are some roads which are under a strategy other than the donors and the Kenya Roads Board. Mr. Speaker, Sir, regarding the road that he mentioned, are the funds from the Kenya Roads Board? I know that I participated ... view
