• 19 Sep 2019 in Senate: seconded. view
• 19 Sep 2019 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I was on the Floor and I have already taken my position. view
• 19 Sep 2019 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I will try to take less. I was lamenting the death of Mombasa City. I was urging my colleague and distinguished learned friend, Sen. Faki, other coastal Senators and their governments to set up alternative sources of income since the death of Mombasa City appears to have complicity with some of their leaders. Looking at the contents of the Bill, I would like Sen. (Dr.) Zani to know that there are a lot of loose ends in the Bill that need to be addressed. First, Sen. (Dr.) Zani proposes that the County Executive Committee (CEC) member in ... view
• 19 Sep 2019 in Senate: (a) Breaches or fails to comply with the provisions of this Act; (b) Breaches or fails to comply with any of the terms or conditions of a licence issued under this Act; (c) Obstructs a person in the execution of powers or duties under this Act; (d) Knowingly or recklessly makes a statement or representation which is false; (e) Knowingly or recklessly furnishes a document or information required under this Act which is false; or (f) Knowingly or recklessly uses or furnishes a fake or forged or invalid licence or a licence that has been altered without authorization commits an ... view
• 19 Sep 2019 in Senate: Whether you say knowingly or willfully, and not recklessly--- Recklessness is a very technical legal term that cannot apply here. It is knowledge and the will, knowingly and wilfully. Sen. (Dr.) Zani, you need to look at that. Recklessness in law means that you know you are doing wrong and know the consequences, but you do not care. That is what recklessness in law means, and I do not think it applies to somebody who is applying for a licence to run a curio shop or something as small as that, and you come from a tourist attraction area. Sen. ... view
• 19 Sep 2019 in Senate: million. It cannot work; it is not developing local tourism. You should rethink this, Sen. (Dr.) Zani. You go further and say that where a body corporate is found guilty of an offence under this Act - I do not know who drafted this for you - every principal officer of that corporation is deemed to have committed an offence. It cannot work like that. You are saying that if it is a hotel, the beverages manager, the manager, waitress, front office manager and the chief chef are all guilty, and they will pay fines of Kshs500,000 or imprisonment for ... view
• 19 Sep 2019 in Senate: must be a foreigner, white, yellow or whatever. We can have Tanzanian, Ugandan or Kenyan tourists that can change economies of counties. This is what we are trying to provide for and encourage ourselves as Senators. Even our sitting here as Senate view
• 19 Sep 2019 in Senate: is part of promotion of tourism. This is how the economies of our counties will grow. If it is well regulated, it will change the life of Kenyans. I would have loved that when we were here for this one week, we should not have carried food from Nairobi to eat in our `restaurant here; rather, we should have been eating the food that the people of Kitui eat. We should have enjoyed cassava, muthokoi, view
• 19 Sep 2019 in Senate: and all other foods, to appreciate the culture of the people we are visiting. We should not come here and be given fish fillets that we live on in Nairobi. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, with those few remarks, I beg to support this Bill and urge Sen. (Dr.) Zani that it is a wonderful idea. Please, make it better. view
• 18 Sep 2019 in Senate: Thank you Mr. Speaker, Sir, I will try to compress what I want to say. My own county lost Kshs.56 million in the current allocation because of under collection of own source revenue. The problems we have in addition to what Sen. Seneta and Sen. Khaniri have said, is endemic corruption. Money is, in fact, collected, but it is never declared because view
