• 19 Jul 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, all Members of Parliament in their constituencies have been building a lot of village polytechnics that fall under the Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports. Then you have technical institutes that fall under the Ministry of Higher Education, Science and Technology. You then have those backstreet colleges that fall nowhere. Some even give certificates that are not approved by any State authority. I would want to see that good intentions as there may be, we make sure that all institutions have a curriculum to follow, and that when institutions apply for licences to start operations, ... view
• 19 Jul 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want harmony between the authority that we are proposing - I do not know whether this should be found in this Bill, or another piece of legislation - the Ministry of Higher Education, Science and Technology, particularly in relation to university, polytechnics and technical institutes education. The authority should not just manage assets and funds and the usual things that we give parastatals, but should be a parastatal that will be intellectually driven to provide meaningful change in the development of skills that will turn round the economy of this country. view
• 19 Jul 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, if this country is to achieve its Vision 2030, indeed, the other day we had a workshop in which there was unanimous agreement that Vision 2030 can actually be achieved in 2015 if we have proper skills, manpower and drivers. It requires us, as a nation, to invest heavily in skills development. I would want to see a situation where this authority is not just set up. We appoint people into positions and we do not fund the organizations. If it will work and work properly, it will have to be properly funded, so that it ... view
• 19 Jul 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, the idea is good. I hope the Mover of the Bill, who is the able Chairman of my party, will take into account the point about standardization and how to harmonise training in various institutions. view
• 19 Jul 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I fully support the Bill. Thank you. view
• 16 Jun 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. Having ruled hon. Oyongo Nyamweya out of order, is the Minister in order to respond to a no point of order? That is because there is nothing to respond to. view
• 16 Jun 2011 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker. This is a very straightforward Motion, very clear and simple. What the Minister is asking is consistent with the provisions of the law and it is, in fact, expected to come before this House. The Treasury, as the custodian of public debt, must come to this House and be given a legal backing to cap the ceiling on what our national debt should be. Hereafter, the Constitution and the law requires that then every individual debt that requires the Government guarantee must come to this House on its own merit, be debated as a ... view
• 16 Jun 2011 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, now that we have institutionalized public hearings in the recruitment of Kenyans to offices, I think it is view
• 15 Jun 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I am sorry to interrupt my learned friend, but in view of the tremendous interest in this debate, I seek your indulgence. Standing Order No.87 gives the duration of speech as 20 minutes, but I wish to move that we limit it to five minutes, so that we give as many Members as possible an opportunity to contribute to this Motion. view
• 15 Jun 2011 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me an opportunity to also thank the Committee for a job well done. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the three Kenyans we are talking about today herald a history in this country where, for the first time, the Chief Justice of this country, his Deputy and the Director of Public Prosecutions are being appointed with the concurrence of the House. Dr. Willy Mutunga was my lecturer. He taught us at the University of Nairobi and he supervised me in my dissertation, which is teaching material in Commercial Law at the University ... view
