• 5 Mar 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, Sen. Mwaruma has raised a very important matter which nobody seems to focus on. We have focused on the Early Childhood Development Education (ECDE), which is the preserve of county governments. We have focused on basic education and assumed that it is about primary and secondary education for children with full abilities. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I would like it to go on record, so that the Committee which you will dedicate this matter to, also responds on the infrastructure allocation to special needs schools in Taita-Taveta. Since this matter affects all the 47 counties, I beg that ... view
• 4 Mar 2020 in Senate: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Speaker. view
• 4 Mar 2020 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I do not object to the Motion and the contribution by Sen. Wambua. However, I just wanted to find out whether it is in order for him to refer to a matter before a committee. I just wanted to guide him accordingly, so that he does not refer to proceedings of a committee that is yet to report back to the House. Is he in order to refer to the proceedings of a committee? view
• 4 Mar 2020 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I rise to support to Motion and also congratulate the Team that we commissioned to inquire into what is turning out to be one of the greatest scams of this generation. They have done well in terms of positioning the Senate as the defender of devolution and profiling it as a House that has zero tolerance to corruption and inefficiency in Government. I just want to encourage the team that if we grant them additional days, let them use the opportunity properly and engage the public in everything that they do. We must remember though that Ad ... view

• 4 Mar 2020 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, on that particular Order, the Speaker made a ruling at the commencement of the business of the House today, because I rose on a point of order asking whether the Motion was properly before the House. The Speaker confirmed that debate could continue. My recollection is that Sen. Halake had moved. I do not know whether she has to consume all her time for it to be seconded and debate expedited. view
• 3 Mar 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I was discussing a similar subject in Kisumu County on Saturday when I had visited the Senator for Kisumu. The public was The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate. view
• 3 Mar 2020 in Senate: concerned that financial records in Kisumu County had been burnt in a fire that was mysterious. What is disappointing about the Kisumu fire is that the distinguished Governor of Kisumu sat in this House as the Chairperson of the County Public Accounts and Investments Committee (CPAIC). It is very suspicious when fire decides to raze down financial records at a time when they are dealing with pending bills. The fire then starts and ends in the finance department, and does not burn the governor’s office or other offices that are adjacent. view
• 3 Mar 2020 in Senate: It is not only in Kisumu County. I cite Kisumu County because it is a disappointment to this House, when a person who was an eminent and distinguished Member - a person whom we are very proud of - would have these things happening under his watch. It has happened in my own county of Homa Bay. It has also happened in Migori, Busia and Kitui counties. Therefore, I agree with Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. that these are deliberate cases of arson. view
• 3 Mar 2020 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, we dealt with these issues last year when these counties came before the Senate. We insisted that each county government must, within three months, implement a risk management framework. That is a requirement in the law; it is in the Public Finance Management (PFM) Act. Some of these counties have fire engines that can respond to fires in markets, but not in finance departments. view
