• 11 Nov 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is exactly one page and will take me about three minutes. view
• 11 Nov 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I confirm to the House that the Municipal Council of Embu demolished a house constructed by the Prisons Department. Her Worship the Mayor of the Municipal Council of Embu allegedly ordered the demolition on her own without the involvement of chief officers. Whereas in this case she acted contrary to Section 96(a) of the Local Government Act, Cap.265, I wish to confirm to the House that the land parcel has not been allocated to any private developer. According to the registered index map, a certified copy of which has been attached herein as Annex 1, the land ... view
• 11 Nov 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the only area that I can deal with at this point in time is that, that relates to breach of Cap.265. There are sanctions within Cap.265 which relate to an offence or a breach of that Act. When it comes to investigations as to whether there was a criminal act, that is not within my domain and it falls squarely within the other investigative agencies of the Government. As I said, if it is then established, because there has to be concrete evidence, that a criminal offence has been committed, then the proper way will be that ... view
• 11 Nov 2010 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. The matter before us is so important, but it looks like we have no quorum. I think it is important that a matter of this magnitude should have the requisite numbers. view
• 28 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Ministerial Statement will be ready on Thursday, next week. view

• 26 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: (a) I am aware that some of the tenants of the Municipal Council of Kiambu residential houses face eviction by the council after the council gave notice of 30 days as per the tenancy agreement. view
• 26 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: (b) I would like to make a slight correction that the Ministry, indeed, does have a policy with regard to long-term standing tenancy of authorities when the local authorities are disposing of residential properties. However, in this particular case, I wish to state that these residential properties are not being disposed of. view
• 26 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for the general information of the House, I would like to state that in August this year, the council, as per the tenancy agreement, issued a 30 days’ notice to its tenants to vacate the houses for use by the council officers. The tenants went to their lawyers, J.N. Wanjohi and Company Advocates, because they assumed that the notice they got for eviction was because the houses were being sold. I want to state very categorically that the Houses are not being sold and that the council was seeking vacation so that it can house ... view
• 26 Oct 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I think it will be important that we have a specific case that comes up, for example, the case of Kiambu that we have been dealing with. I wish to state that at no time has the Municipal Council of Kiambu come forward to say that it wants to dispose of its houses. If it did that, there is a procedure that would have to be followed. An approval would be granted by the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister and Ministry of Local Government. However, no such request has come forward and no resolution ... view
