• 23 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I agree because it is enhancing the penalty for anybody who will transfer a public asset without the requisite authority. I support. view
• 23 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I can see that Parliament does not want to extend the deadlines on this matter. Because we want to make progress, I will concede and we proceed. view
• 23 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I think what is coming out clearly is that the Committee is recommending that rather than the Cabinet Secretary being the one to give notice to have the panelists who will interview the people, they would rather the Public Service Commission (PSC) puts out a notice and advertises in the public media or gazette. We are devolving power so that the Cabinet Secretary does not have to do it and I do not have to do it. So, I think we can go with the PSC. view
• 23 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, yes, because here it is just the gazette notice. What it is saying is that rather than confine this to a particular individual, the PSC is the one that shall give notice in the gazette and at least two of the newspapers to appoint the panel that will then do the interview for the proposed members of the Authority. So I think it is in order and I support it. view
• 23 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I beg to oppose that amendment because we have already agreed that the PSC should advertise. We have also had strange experiences when you say that you want to bring in the KNCHR, a person nominated by the Kenya Private Sector Alliance (KPSA) and the RAC. Let us have different people being given an opportunity. These people have already got their hands full. Let them do their job where they are doing it. Let other people interview and look for these persons. So, I would plead that Mr. Ngugi’s amendment carries through. view
• 23 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I beg to move that the Committee doth report to the House its consideration of The Transition to Devolved Governments Bill and its approval thereof with amendments. view
• 23 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I think that there is an issue because in my Order Paper, Clause 2 talks of the word “apex” and he was referring to symbols. view
• 23 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I think we do not need the amendment. It is clear enough, unless you would want to replace the word “body” with “the entity established.” view
• 23 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I see no problem with part (d), especially on the GIS based database. However, on the issue of shared services, if I recollect properly, there is a Bill which will define public-private partnership separately. “Shared services” in this context is a different situation where counties may share the services. So, I would support the proposal to have the GIS based database system defined in this law, but I would recommend that we do not include the partnership bit because it is covered under a different Bill that is coming to Parliament. view
• 23 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, could hon. Ngugi explain a little bit on part (b) of his amendment? He has also proposed an amendment to delete the words “whether situate within or without its area of jurisdiction”. Is that particular aspect of the amendment being dropped? view
