  • 21 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Bill continues to say as follows in Clause 27: “27(e) is engaged in any activities which, in the opinion of the Commission, are prejudicial to peace, good order or good government in Kenya--” view
  • 21 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, what does this mean? I am at a loss. What is “prejudicial to peace” that a person who is likely to be a teacher is supposed to guard against to qualify to be registered? How do we leave it to the TSC to determine what is “good order”? We have courts of law. We have the administrative arm of the Government. I think the phraseology needs to be changed. view
  • 21 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Clause 27 of the Bill concludes by saying, in paragraph (f), that the Commission shall not register a person as a teacher if such person suffers from such physical or mental infirmity. view

  • 20 Jun 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, even if the hon. Deputy Leader of Government Business said that, the Government can still re- arrange business as it wishes and bring it to the House. What I urge is that we can agree to sit tomorrow. If the issues being raised are not addressed, we can advocate them tomorrow. This House has the right even to reverse decisions that it makes. So, let me urge that, instead of eating into the very valuable time that we have extended; so that we do not sit until midnight, you make a ruling or put the matter ... view
