• 23 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, in that case, as we take on board amendment to (c), then we should not tamper with (b) because it gives the county governments the opportunity to invest or acquire something in a different county. view
• 23 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I concur. view
• 23 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I do not think there is any harm with it. I support. view
• 23 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I am just looking at it this way; the size of the county assemblies perhaps the largest maybe Nairobi, Kakamega or Kiambu. You will find that based on the number of wards or county assembly members, two-thirds is going to be a very small number. These are smaller entities and I would therefore really plead that we leave it as it is so that it brings some measure of stability. Some county assemblies will have 30 members others 40 members and others twenty something members. If you look at it in that context let us ... view
• 23 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I beg to support. It was, in fact, highlighted by hon. Ngugi during our deliberations. We need to provide for this. So, I want to support the Committee. view

• 23 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I just want to draw the attention of the House to Clause 36(2) of the Bill which deals with the appointment. Section 36(2) says that the county assembly shall not approve nominations for appointment to the executive committee if they do not take into account the following--- Which by implication - and I think there was a specific clause which I am trying to trace – which makes it clear that the governor cannot appoint the executive committee members without the approval of the assembly. view
• 23 Feb 2012 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I may want to ask the House to reflect a little bit on this because it says that the governor may dismiss a county executive committee member in accordance with Section 41. Now under Section 41, there is a description of why and so forth. In my view, we should make laws that become better.
