  • 14 Feb 2023 in Senate: Standing Order No. 43 as read alongside Standing Order No.190. The manner in which we begin a session will determine and dictate how this House is going to run for the next one session. Honestly, I am fairly disappointed that on the first day of the first session, instead of focusing on the critical business of constituting the SBC, we have veered off into issues that can best be prosecuted using other tools that are available to us, as legislators. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg that we stand down the Papers that are to be tabled. It is not that ... view
  • 19 Jan 2023 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
  • 19 Jan 2023 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, looking at the Order Paper, the distinguished Senator has an amendment to this Bill. Unless he has withdrawn that amendment, will it not be neat for him to move, so that we debate his amendment and dispense with it, because we cannot speak to the original version that came from the National Assembly and then later speak to his amendment? view
  • 8 Dec 2022 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Ordinarily, I would be begging to move. However, I beg to defer this Bill. This Bill has been the subject of consultation with the Senate Majority Leader and the Minority side and also in consultation with the Members of the Standing Committee on Education. The County Vocational Education and Training Bill, (Senate Bills No. 3 of 2022) is currently being considered by the Senate Standing Committee on Education and I see the chairperson is present. In fact, I have information that today, they were supposed to consider the Bill. However, the meeting was postponed because ... view

  • 8 Dec 2022 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, Sen. Osotsi has raised a matter that needs some inspection. The matter of consultation before convening a special sitting. view
  • 8 Dec 2022 in Senate: Standing Order No. 33 is quite clear on the procedure and who can call a special sitting. That Parliament is not guided only by the Standing Orders, but there is also tradition and precedence. We have set a precedent in this House that when the Senate Majority or Minority Leaders wishes to convene a Special Sitting, there ought to be some consultation. Not necessarily concurrence, but consultation between the two sides. I want to encourage us not to kill this spirit. I do not argue that it is mandatory. I argue that is a good precedent and tradition. I wish ... view
  • 27 Oct 2022 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. This is a very important Statement and I congratulate the Chairperson of the Committee on Energy for bringing it before the Senate. view
  • 27 Oct 2022 in Senate: 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
  • 27 Oct 2022 in Senate: Energy, transport and infrastructure are important conditions for sustainable growth. Kenya generates about 2,000 megawatts and I do not think that will take us to our desired position of being a truly middle-income economy. I urge the Chairperson to look at the distinction between policy implementation and oversight. As the Senate, our role will be to oversight the actions of the Executive and the actions of state players. I want to encourage the Committee on Energy to borrow a leaf from the Second Senate. That Senate set up a special inquiry into the affairs of Kenya Airways, which generated a ... view
