• 10 Mar 2015 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I would like to thank Members of the Ad Hoc Committee on Legislation on Harambees led by the able Sen. (Prof.) Anyang’-Nyong’o for coming up with this Bill. In the public domain, there seems to be some apprehension that the Senate is seeking to abolish harambees. After reading this Bill properly, I am convinced that is not the intention of the Bill to do so. If you look at the manner in which this Bill has been reported in the media and the information that has flown to people who do not have the ... view
• 4 Mar 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I wish to, first of all, congratulate Joseph Kipchirchir Boinett for coming this far. Whether we vote him today or not, he will indeed be successful because he will have got so close to it. I want to address the issue of suitability, capability and integrity of the nominee for Inspector-General. Whereas I do not have any evidence to talk about his integrity or lack of it, even though the questions on his academic qualifications might cast a shadow on issues of integrity, allow me to address issues of suitability and capability. We have set the bar ... view
• 26 Feb 2015 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I beg to support the Motion that is before the House. This being my maiden speech, I had anticipated to speak on a different matter, but when I looked at the weight, content and juiciness of the Budget Policy Statement, I was compelled to make my first comments on this particular subject. 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
• 26 Feb 2015 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker. I just want to speak to this particular issue of the digital migration - The issue of benefit to the common man. I also want to look at the youth in this respect. I concur that the youth who are involved in content creation should get more opportunities to make money. However, if we rush this, there is nothing that stops us from setting up local industries to assemble digital set-top boxes. A digital set-top box is not rocket science. It is not more complicated than a speed governor. We need to think of innovative ... view
• 22 Sep 2014 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, thank you very much for giving me this opportunity. I would like to start by congratulating the Committee that worked on this Bill; my elder brother Sen. Mutula Kilonzo jnr., the seconder of the Bill, Sen Sang, and the entire Committee that ensured that this Bill comes to the Floor of the House. This is a straight forward Bill that should have been enacted much earlier. If you do a search on similar Bills, you will realize that the county assemblies of Nakuru, Laikipia, and Nairobi have already come up with similar Bills. This means that ... view
• 22 Sep 2014 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. When this particular matter that I alluded to in my contribution came to the committee, we assessed whether it was within the mandate of that particular committee. When we realised that the issues were extraneous – not relating to the committee – we, as a committee, resolved to advise the House that the petition should be committed to the relevant committee. We did not throw it out of the Senate but wanted it directed to the right room within the correct House; that is the Senate. view
