• 31 Mar 2015 in Senate: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Speaker, Sir. I do not want to unduly interrupt the distinguished Senator. However, is he in order to say that those who have been taken to court do not appear in this list when, in fact, the early pages of the Report indicate those cases which are already in court including Sen. Muthama’s Malili case? It is here and he has been taken to court. view
• 31 Mar 2015 in Senate: On a point of order, Madam Temporary Speaker. Sen. Hassan is a victim of the discredited draconian security laws that were brought to the National Assembly on 18th December and the clause that touches on him was declared by the court to be unconstitutional. view
• 31 Mar 2015 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. If I may seek your clarification, even the document that we are using has no signature and is not authentic. It is not any different. view
• 31 Mar 2015 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, you have given me the Floor. view
• 31 Mar 2015 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I do not understand this. view
• 25 Mar 2015 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for the opportunity to contribute to this very important Bill. I start with a lamentation. In the tradition of our Parliament and the Committee systems, when such critical and technical Bills come to the House, the House expects the Committee responsible for the sector to go through the Bill very carefully and bring a report that can inform and guide the House in the debate. That is why we set up Committees. We have lined up several Bills, but I am not aware of, neither have I seen any single Committee report on any of ... view
• 25 Mar 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, that has not been circulated to the extent that I have not seen it. In any case, you cannot have tabled a report yesterday and expect it to help the debate today.

• 25 Mar 2015 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir, for the opportunity to contribute to this Bill which I oppose because it has been a declared policy of this country and Government; one, that they are shrinking duplication of parastatals and other similar organizations to cut down wastage. Two, there exists an organization established according to the memorandum and objects by legal notice.

We have a programme called Arid Lands, which has been in existence for a long time, ... view
• 25 Mar 2015 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I was making the point that with devolution, it is not proper for this House or any other House to legislate and continue putting authority and use of funds at the centre. Counties have different interests, different pressures and different priorities. This Bill suggests that the Drought Management Authority shall open offices in counties. I will not be surprised to see a drought management office in Kericho, Kisii, Nyandarua, Murang’a and Kakamega where we have rainfall. What we need to do - and that is why I am urging the House to reject this Bill - ... view
• 25 Mar 2015 in Senate: You know under what circumstances the National Youth Service was moved to this Ministry and its budget increased by almost 1000 per cent, and is it now selectively roaming around the country to do things that the county governments can do. You know very well that management of water resources is a completely devolved function. Why are billions of shillings domiciled in the Ministry of Devolution and why is the Ministry tendering for construction of dams in the counties?
