• 16 Nov 2021 in Senate: , which is implemented by Act Change Transform (ACT), formerly the Kenya Donor Working Group. If you allow me off the cuff to indicate that even though we are having conversations with the donor working groups at the Senate, there are those who have gone to court to oppose the role of Senate in oversighting conditional grants and grants coming from these working groups. These Senators have a responsibility to stand firm that any monies that are appropriated through County Allocation of Revenue Act (CARA), that seek the approval of the Senate, must be oversighted by the senate. Mr. Speaker, ... view

• 16 Nov 2021 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
• 16 Nov 2021 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, is Sen. (Dr.) Ochillo-Ayacko in order to say that we need experienced legislators like Sen. M. Kajwang’ and Sen. Wetangula in this House and yet we know that in terms of experience, very few come close to Sen. (Dr.) Ochillo-Ayacko? He has been a Member of Parliament (MP), a Cabinet Secretary (CS) and in charge of nuclear agents in this country. When you speak of a rocket scientist, you think of Sen. (Dr.) Ochillo-Ayacko. He is now a Senator and yet he has decided to go back to Migori County to deal with the plight of tobacco ... view
• 16 Nov 2021 in Senate: Madam Deputy Speaker, everything we say in this House needs to be transcribed on the HANSARD. Could Sen. Olekina give directions on how that laughter shall be captured in the HANSARD? Otherwise, it should be struck off completely. view
• 16 Nov 2021 in Senate: Madam Deputy Speaker, I beg to move that the County Governments (Amendment) Bill (Senate Bills No.38 of 2021) be now read a second time. The amendment to this Act is quite familiar to this House. In the last Parliament, this House came up with Section 91(a) to the County Governments Act and established the County Development Board (CDB). The CDB has been referred to as the Sang Board. The Bill that brought effect to it was brought by Sen. Sang, who was a very vibrant Member of this House. His vibrancy has been inherited and added on by Sen. Cherargei, ... view
• 16 Nov 2021 in Senate: The role of the Senate is to represent the interests of counties and their governments yet we do not have a forum for a Senator to understand and discuss with the county governments what their interests are. This amendment seeks to cure the issues that were raised by the court on the CDB and to put in place a better framework that shall enable elected leaders from a county to sit, reason, think and plan together. Madam Deputy Speaker before I get into details on how that would be effected, there are two other objectives that we have of this ... view
• 16 Nov 2021 in Senate: The annual performance report must be seen to be as important as the financial performance report. Madam Deputy Speaker, right now, every county government does a financial report which is then looked at by the Auditor-General and a report comes to the Senate and the county assembly. It only looks at the financial perspective. What about the other perspectives like the human resource, the county stakeholders, projects and the Overall County Integrated Development Plan? view
• 16 Nov 2021 in Senate: If the county governments are required to submit annual performance reports within three months of the closure of the financial year, just the same way they do with the financial reports, would then be laid before the county assembly and the Senate. That view
• 16 Nov 2021 in Senate: means that instead of the Senator for Narok County looking at a report that says how procurement was done, how many pencils and envelopes were bought, he also gets to look at another report that tells him what the performance objective was, what the performance target was and to what extent that was achieved. view
