  • 8 May 2013 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to move the following Motion:- THAT, pursuant to Standing Orders No.31(1) and No.50(b), and notwithstanding the provisions of Standing Order No.30; aware that the late Senator Mutula Kilonzo will be laid to rest tomorrow, Thursday, May 09, 2013, in Mbooni, Makueni County; recognizing the need for Senators to participate in giving their departed colleague a befitting send-off, the Senate resolves to adjourn until Tuesday, May 14, 2013.

  • 8 May 2013 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I take the opportunity to thank all Senators who without dissent, have supported the Motion. I thank you, Sen. Murkomen, for seconding the Motion.

In doing so, I think we overlooked the provisions of Standing Order No.68. Where thresholds are set clearly in the Standing Orders or in the law, like if we had brought a constitutional Bill, we will only go to vote if the Chair and the House is satisfied that we have a requisite minimum requirement. We should have not gone to vote in the first place The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes ... view
  • 7 May 2013 in Senate: On a point of order; you being an immensely experienced lawyer, I want to invite you to read three Standing Orders No.1(2), 51(3) and No.68(c). Let me read them loud for the benefit of the Chamber. view
  • 7 May 2013 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Standing Orders No.1(2), 51(3) and 68(3). Let me read them aloud for the benefit of the House. Standing Order No.1(2) refers to cases not provided for. The most important bit is:- “The decisions made in paragraph (1) shall be based on the Constitution of Kenya, statute law and the usages, forms, precedents, customs, procedures and traditions of the Parliament of Kenya and other jurisdictions to the extent that these are applicable in Kenya.” This falls in sync with the submission of Sen. Murkomen that you give us a reasoned ruling that will form part of our precedent ... view
  • 30 Apr 2013 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
  • 30 Apr 2013 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, is it possible for the Chair to save us from this morass of confusion from the Majority side of the House? They do not seem to know what and who they represent! view
