• 3 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, with your permission, it is for this new Financial Year, 2014/2015. Just for record, since the start of CDF, this is the first time we are able to table the allocations in the first week of the financial year. So, the allocation to the CDF is Kshs33 billion, which we have distributed to 290 constituencies. We have photocopied the allocation list for every hon. Member; their copies are in Room 8. The only thing I am calling on hon. Members to do is bring their projects in the next two weeks to the CDF Board, so that we ... view
• 3 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me the chance. From the outset, I stand to agree that this House is due for this little rest, having worked very hard in the month of June. I chair the National Assembly Select Committee on Constituencies Development Fund (CDF) and today, we have tabled the allocations of the CDF to the 290 constituencies. This year, there was a very generous amount. It was an amount that was arrived at through concerted efforts of this House and, of course, the support of the National Treasury. Today is the 3rd of July, less ... view

• 3 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I just want to call upon my colleagues, Members of Parliament, to use this time of recess to agree with the people they represent on the projects to be funded by that Fund. Our expectation is that by the time we come back from recess on 15th July, we should each have finalized our projects. So, by the end of this month, latest mid August, you should have received the monies so that your constituents can continue being proud about this very good Fund called CDF. view

• 3 Jul 2014 in National Assembly: For the 159 constituencies which had not received the balance of their monies for the last financial year, I have confirmed that the National Treasury has remitted Kshs.4.2 billion today towards what was still pending last year. By the time you reach home, those monies will already be there. That is to say there is a lot of work to be done by Members of Parliament once they get back to their constituencies. So--- view

• 26 Jun 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Chairlady. I just stand to support the Chair of the Budget and Appropriations Committee, in terms of the Chemususu Dam which was mentioned. It is true that we want to work with the funds which have been allocated and which we have agreed together with the Treasury. We have agreed to put Kshs200 million in Chemususu Dam. Initially, we thought we could do with Kshs400 million but because of the deficit, we have agreed to start with Kshs200 million. Let them start the treatment works and shortly we shall be in another financial year. At that time, ... view
• 25 Jun 2014 in National Assembly: On a point of order, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I have noted we are more on this side than, of course, on the other side, which is very obvious. I have noted that you are picking one from this side and one from the other side. view
