• 30 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I rise to second this Motion. As the Mover has stated, it is a straightforward Motion which seems to reorganize the committees so that we accommodate the new Member representing Kericho County. I am glad I also sit in some of the committees where Sen. Cheruiyot has been appointed to sit. I want to point out particularly the Standing Committee on Roads and Transportation of which I am a Member. I am glad that we will get some youth and vigour joining the Committee. This is because the vast majority of roads in this country, following ... view
• 30 Mar 2016 in Senate: can appreciate the hospitality of the people in that area. I believe that Sen. Cheruiyot has not seen too much fresh paint and too much fresh tarmac and he will add a lot of value to the Committee on Roads and Transportation. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, the inclusion of Sen. Cheruiyot in the Committee on Information and Technology is extremely relevant. There is usually a feeling that young 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
• 30 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I will be very brief considering the time and that my colleagues might also want to say something. I second this Motion that we do adjourn until Tuesday, 12th April, 2016. As I second this Motion, I wish to inform the Mover, that the CORD Coalition is full of star players just like the team called FC Barcelona. Whereas you will have Messi as your main striker, you still have other players like Neymar and that gentleman who bites others - sometimes I forget his name. view
• 30 Mar 2016 in Senate: Yes, like Suarez. So, there is no shortage of talent in the CORD Coalition. We support our co-principal, Sen. Wetangula, in his bid to become the President of this nation. If you want to marry a young lady, she will not get married to you if you do not declare your interest. You cannot continue winking in the dark expecting that she will see you and be interested in you. That is the same thing with our co-principal and the Senate Minority Leader. It is his right to declare his interest; that he wants this young lady called Kenya. He ... view
• 24 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I thank the Chair for the Statement. However, I would like a clarification on one or two things. The Chair stated that the last consignment should be delivered on 7th April. Since the planting season is on in most areas, of what value will it be to deliver this fertilizer on 7th April and thereafter there will be a long duration in offloading and distribution? Does it make sense or will this fertilizer be used for subsequent planting seasons? Secondly, sometime last year, the nation commissioned a fertilizer plant in the North Rift. I would like ... view
• 24 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am well guided. In the event that the Chair has got information, he could update the House. view
• 24 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I will then leave that and probably raise a substantive request for a statement. In as much as the Chair has also raised a lot of issues on what the Government is doing, agriculture is devolved. I would wish to encourage him to update this House on what is it that counties are doing as far as availability of fertilizer is concerned. view
• 23 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, allow me to comment on the first Communication that you have made regarding consultations with the Cabinet Secretary for Health. I am glad that the cabinet secretaries are taking this House seriously. I have just realized that we have a framework for seeing and discussing what the national Government is doing in many of these devolved units. Unfortunately, there seems not to be a very strong structure for us to discuss with governors and see what we are doing. This issue of leased medical equipment is a national Government matter that was forced down the throats ... view
• 23 Mar 2016 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. If you allow me just to wrap up on the second Communication that you have made. It is important that this House also pronounces itself because when we discussed this issue of pending bills, which you have now provided very good direction on, we have seen in the public people who hold positions of responsibility rubbishing what the Senate is doing. The Senate must take a strong stand against people who rubbish what we are doing because the figures that were brought here that prompted us to ask for direction came from county treasuries. ... view
• 23 Mar 2016 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I also hold the view that in as much as some people think the Petition is frivolous, it is the work of the committee to which it shall be committed to find out whether it is frivolous or not. I sense in this Petition some desperation on the part of citizens. The Constitution is clear on ways in which the Constitution can be amended. It can be amended by popular initiative or parliamentary initiative. Probably, this petitioner has looked at the process that some players in this country have taken to amend the Constitution by popular ... view
