• 10 Nov 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Ministry is not being intimidated. However, we have to take into account the fact that a local authority is also an entity which is led by politicians. We have to try and come to an understanding when we are dealing with some of these things. It is not a question of the Ministry being intimidated at all. view
• 10 Nov 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, at this point in time, definitely, Kirinyaga County Council is one of the most stable councils in terms of the operations and management. view
• 10 Nov 2009 in National Assembly: On the issue of land grabbing or anything of that nature, that becomes a different matter which can be a substantive Question in this House, where there is a dispute over something else.

In fact, one of the propositions we are making is to be able to have a Local Government Service Commission which will help us focus on the staff and professionals in the local authorities in our country. It is a big challenge as they say. I have no immediate response but to say that we want to have a long-term answer to this. This is because virtually every local authority has ... view
• 10 Nov 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I have received a letter from the hon. Member on the issue of this bus park. We are going to send a team from the Ministry to go and verify the issues that he has raised regarding the bus park. On the other hand, I want to say that the lady in question has not been in the same position for 36 years. Initially, she joined as a Revenue Assistant and then was promoted to Accountant III. She has been rising up to the position of Senior Administrative Officer, through the Public Service Commission. Now, she is ... view
