• 17 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am taking this matter very seriously. In fact, attached to the letter that I have tabled, for instance, there is also an addendum which shows the account number of this gentleman and what he drew on a monthly basis from the pension over and above the lump sum payment that was given. So, I am taking this matter very seriously. It is a serious matter. This man deserves his bread and butter. So, I cannot take it lightly. view
• 17 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) I am aware that the management of Ol Jororok Education Centre requested the County Council of Nyandarua on 20th July, 2007 for land allocation for a social welfare plot in order to build a social welfare centre. The County Council of Nyandarua vide their council minutes allocated half-an-acre of a portion of a plot to build the centre and on 13th March, 2008, the Council of Nyandarua entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with the Ol Jororok Town Education Centre Management for the use of the community welfare plot No.49 ... view
• 17 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: (c)As of now, this plot has not been transferred to any individual organisation. It still remains the property of the Council. I want to assure the House that it will continue to be used as an educational centre and we will not accept any transfer to any other individual organisation unless it is specifically for this purpose and proper procedure has been followed for the Ministry to sanction. view
• 17 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the documentation I have from the council indicates that the memorandum they entered into for this welfare project was for half-an-acre. This is the documentation I have, and I will table it here. Secondly, I also want to confirm to hon. Members that no transfer has been approved by the Ministry for this plot to be transferred to anybody else. The plot still remains the property of the County Council of Nyandarua. No transfer has taken place. I have communicated with the Clerk to the Council, that this plot should not be transferred to anybody ... view
• 17 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like to let the House know that as we speak, the Ministry has already issued a circular to all the local authorities, that they are not allowed to transfer any land whatsoever, especially during this transition period that we are going to be moving from the current regime to the county government regime. So, we have stopped. The local authorities have the circular. So, any Town Clerk, or any public officer within the local authority who will be involved in the transfer of an asset, knowing very well that there is a circular ... view
• 17 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, if the hon. Member had given me just an extra minute, I would have confirmed to him that over and above the circular, we are working very closely with the Ministry of Lands so that no title can be issued, be it originating from what they call “back-dated movement” without the approval of the Minister. So, any transaction that involves transfer of land in a local authority must get the approval of the Minister, and it can only be given on condition that the Minister is satisfied that it is going to a public school ... view
• 17 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is true that local authorities do not issue title deeds. That is the function of the Ministry of Lands. To get to the stage of issuance of a title deed, the process of allotment is what follows. However, let me assure the hon. Member that we have given instructions that clearly stop all transactions on land. That is the message we have given. The only ones that are coming forward to the Minister must be for the public good, and I gave examples of educational institutions and hospitals. view
• 17 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the development that has gone on there – CDF money has been expended on the particular project – clearly indicates that this is a public project. Therefore, they will receive support from the Ministry to ensure that their interests and the investment of the CDF for Ol Kalou does not go to waste. I want to assure the hon. Member again that we have made it clear to the Nyandarua County Council that nobody else should interfere with that particular project. view
• 17 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I second. view
