• 14 May 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, we have allowed Governors to defy summons of this House. The Committee on Land, Environment and Natural Resources summoned the Governor for Murang‘a County, but he did not appear.

• 14 May 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, as the team does its post-mortem, we probably might need to ask ourselves whether we need to do the Legislative Summit and the Devolution Conference every year. Having come from Kirinyaga County where Governors were showing off their fuel guzzlers and their trappings of power, we then went immediately to Kisumu. An honest assessment of Kisumu was that the Senate was very committed to that particular event. There were Senators present from the first day, the pre-conference events, all the way to the last day. view
• 14 May 2019 in Senate: The reality is that our brothers and sisters from the county assemblies did not turn up in the numbers or percentages we had expected. As we do the post-mortem assessment, let us find ways of ensuring that we engage all Members of the county assemblies and the Senate and ensure that attendance is enforced and observed. However, let us ask ourselves whether it is important to separate these jamborees and say that one 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
• 14 May 2019 in Senate: year we have the Devolution Conference and another year we have the Legislative Summit. view
• 14 May 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I hope that one day the Legislative Summit will be hosted in Homa Bay because Homa Bay is ripe and ready for the Senate to descend upon it. view
