13 Oct 2010 in National Assembly:
Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like the Prime Minister to tell us something about concessioning. We are aware that part of Uhuru Highway from Machakos to Westlands will be under concession. I remember that we passed a document in this House allowing that concessioning. I am wondering why the construction has not started up to today. There is no update about the concessioning, as to how far it has gone. Have they already agreed with all the players in Kenya in terms of that concessioning?

The second issue is that if you look at Thika Road at the moment, the Kshs26 billion road that is being done, you will find that the Chinese are laughing all the way to the bank. I wonder this time round who will be laughing all the way to the bank. Will it be the Chinese, Indian or a Kenyan contractor who will be awarded the other part of the road so that he or she can laugh all the way to the bank?

6 Oct 2010 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Local Government to tell us if it is possible to lay the scientific method which they used to reach the conclusion that there will be La Nina . Otherwise, we do not want this Government to be a prophet of doom. I would also like the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Local Government to inform this House, now that the Government is very sure that there will be La Nina, that we will not see the scenario of last year, where they were buying cows which were ...

On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I sought two clarifications from the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Local Government but he only responded to one. He did not respond to the second one in terms of what he intends to do with the animals we are holding now, they are very fat. I had asked him whether he can buy them now rather than waiting to buy them when they are about to die. He did not respond to that.

6 Oct 2010 in National Assembly:
Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, while I second and support this Motion, I want to thank this CDF Committee for the work they did last year in December in terms of amending the Roads Act. We did amend the Roads Act â because it is part of the devolved funds â to allow you, hon .Members to have four of your CDSC Members to sit in the Constituency Roads Committee and, in fact, we went an extra mile so that out of those four, two of them are signatories to the Constituency Roads Committee. For that matter, I want to ...

6 Oct 2010 in National Assembly:
While I second this Motion, I want to state the following facts. For the Financial Year 2009/2010 â that is the year which just ended on 30th June, 2010 â it is only 114 constituencies which received their full allocation of CDF; only 114! We still have 96 constituencies which have not received their full allocation of CDF for the simple reason that the Treasury â just like the CDFC Chairman has indicated â to date, has given us a shortfall in remittance of Kshs1.8 billion. So, the 96 constituencies will have to wait until we receive the money for ...

6 Oct 2010 in National Assembly:
Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I just mentioned that to date, if I can give you an example of the year 2007/2008, the allocation which was approved by this House was Kshs10.1 billion. The Treasury managed to remit only Kshs9 billion, leaving a shortfall of Kshs1.1 billion. For the year 2008/2009, the allocation, again, which was approved in the Budget by this House was Kshs10.1 billion. The Treasury succeeded to remit only Kshs9.6 billion, leaving a shortfall of Kshs500 million. For the year 2009/2010, which is the year which has just passed â we want to thank them because they ...
