• 30 Nov 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I do not want to altercate with the Chair. However, when the Chair says such outrageous and preposterous things--- view
• 30 Nov 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I have to protest in the strongest terms possible. We are on air and you cannot dare address me like that, whether you are on the Chair or not. I will not take this. Jokes aside; this is a House of honour. You cannot use a seat of privilege to insult me. I will not take this. view
• 30 Nov 2016 in Senate: If you want you can send me out. I will not take this. 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 Nov 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, thank you for that direction. In conventional terms, the Speaker does not participate in debate. Let me make my last point. Could the Chairman, in his response, tell this House whether he will engage the Ministry to ensure that no schools, coupled with adequate resources are promoted to national level, but with clear criteria that in densely populated areas, a specific quota is set aside for children from those counties? This is so that they are not dispossessed of the opportunity to go to schools that their parents have painstakingly built over the period. view
• 30 Nov 2016 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. Please, prod the Chairperson to move away from that irrational position that he has taken. I thank the Senator for Nyeri for bringing this because it is very important. Could he also – I do not expect him to have this now – take time and bring to this House statistics of every school from the time they were elevated to now, the progression of performance, the population of students, number of teachers in each school and the cost of maintaining those schools? view
• 30 Nov 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I know that my Chairman in the Committee on Finance, Commerce and Budget has strong views on this matter. I know that the Statement that he has read to this House is not in sync with his thinking. 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 Nov 2016 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, the Equalization Fund was set up under Article 204 of the Constitution. This Senate engaged in the process of identifying 14 counties; the dispossessed of the dispossessed and the marginalized of the marginalized. They include Mandera, Wajir, Kitui, Tana River and Kilifi counties, where there is poverty beyond believe. We consulted with Commission on Revenue Allocation (CRA) and agreed. This is a clear case of indictment of the Houses of Parliament for allowing themselves to be captured by the Executive and the National Assembly hijacking the role of this Senate. What we have now is not ... view
• 30 Nov 2016 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. It is unfortunate the Mover and proponent of this Bill is not here. I had just started contributing to the Local Content Bill (Senate Bill No.13 of 2013) and I had given a short preview on why local content as defined in the Bill should be expanded beyond the extractive industry. I had said that we need local participation. In fact, the term that is easily understood by everybody is local participation where Kenyans have an opportunity to participate in ownership and benefit of resources. When you go to countries like China, Cuba and ... view
