• 20 Jul 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, the point of order that I wanted to raise was not regarding the Mover. I want to seek your guidance on this specific matter before I proceed to second. Section 6A of the County Governments Act talks about the location of county governments. It states:- “A county assembly may by a resolution supported by at least two-thirds of the Members of the County Assembly (MCAs) and with the approval of Parliament, transfer the headquarters of the county government from the physical locations specified in the Third Schedule to such other physical location as it may consider ... view
• 20 Jul 2016 in Senate: The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate view
• 20 Jul 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I appreciate the Ruling and I am still troubled in my mind but because the Speaker is always right, I will go by your direction. Ordinarily, I would have assumed that there will be evidence of the resolution of the county assembly. The fact that this matter has reached this level, I assume that the resolution was furnished and that the matter would not have come for Second Reading. view
• 20 Jul 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, there is no doubt that the Senate has the power to amend any Bill that it has passed but the matter in contention is not Clause 6A. As long as we are not amending Clause 6A, then for us to amend the Third Schedule, we must go by the provisions of Clause 6A which requires a resolution of the county assembly by two-thirds majority. view
• 20 Jul 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, backed your ruling, it is my pleasure to second this Bill. In as much as I am not very familiar with the many factors that have been brought up by the Senator, I am convinced that the Senator, being the one who defends and protects the interests of devolution and represents the county where the Third Schedule of the County Governments Act has designated its headquarter as Kerugoya urban area. Therefore, there must be significant and fundamental reasons to change the physical location of the headquarters of Kirinyaga County to Kutus urban area. As I second ... view
• 20 Jul 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I am obliged to treat all hon. Senators of this House with respect and not impute any improper motives on them. I would withdraw that and say, the operators of the voting machines have left rather than the voting machines. view
• 20 Jul 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, that is accurate. One of the activities we undertake in this House is to vote. We do that by manipulating the voting machines. Invariably there are those colleagues of ours who love that particular exercise of pressing the voting machine more than they love debating. So, those are the operators of the voting machines that I am talking about. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I have to wrap up. This is a straightforward matter. I reiterate my conviction that Sen. Karaba has the best interest of the people of Kirinyaga County. I hope that he has not ... view
• 19 Jul 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I join my colleagues in appreciating and welcoming the boys and their teachers from that school with a very difficult name. view
• 19 Jul 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, it sounded different when the Senator for Kajiado County mentioned it. view
• 19 Jul 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, the name of the school should not define the school. They say that a rose by any other name will still remain a rose. I would like to encourage the boys by urging them to look at this House. There is a misconception that this is a House of elders. However, there is proof that there are young people like Sen. Kajwang, who is speaking, Sen. Cheruiyot, the Senator seating on the Chair and even Sen. (Prof.) Lonyangapuo, who is young at heart. Therefore, they should not feel like the interests of the young people are ... view
