• 11 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) I have attached a copy of the agreement to the answer, which I will table here. (b) The Question did not specify how far back we should indicate the revenue collected, but I have attempted to go as far back as 1996/1997 on the revenues collected and they were as follows: 1996/1997, Kshs48.6 million, 1997/1998, Kshs22.1 million, 1998/1999, Kshs34.3 million, 1999/2000, Kshs61.8 million, 2000/2001, Kshs59.9 million, 2001/2002, Kshs41.1 million, 2002/2003, Kshs35.8 million, 2003/2004, Kshs32.6 million, 2004/2005, Kshs103.1 million, 2005/2006, Kshs97.8 million, 2006/2007, Kshs99.2 million, 2007/2008, Kshs88.6 and 2008/2009, Kshs60.4 million.

• 11 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is t true that quite a number of local authorities, particularly those that have tourism as a base, had different agreements, sometimes with different organizations for revenue collection. In this particular case, the issue of inadequate support from this arrangement did come up and the Town Clerk was asked, and I believe he wrote a letter – I am still trying to look for a copy of it, which I can show to the hon. Member and even present to the House. We have advised the council that they can cancel this agreement because there are ... view
• 11 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, first of all, let me just highlight that this agreement was signed by the council in 1995. Just for record purposes, that should be noted. I have tried to highlight the revenue projections and growth. Indeed, in the early days, one can see some substantial growth up to the year 2004/2005. Then you start seeing a downward trend of the revenue collection. So, it is true that if the councils can organize themselves, they too can also have the capacity to collect this revenue and, perhaps, increase the collection. But I must also confess the fact that ... view
• 11 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, in the agreement, it is clear from the outset the commission that the KATO would get. If there is any inflated figure which is being brought up, it will be captured by auditors. The agreement between that organization and the council is subject to auditing. That will be done when the auditors audit the revenue collection for that council. view
• 11 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, at this point in time I was not aware that a report had been made to the CID, Isiolo. It was the Isiolo County Council which allocated the money when it collected it directly. It allocated some money to the bursary. However, it was not in the context of the KATO agreement, but the revenue it collected. The records we have show that the council has paid Kshs8.9 million towards the bursaries from 1995 to 2009. On the issue the hon. Member has raised, I will follow it up with the council so that we can get ... view
• 11 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, let me apologise because I have been made to understand that the Attorney-General is out of the country. view
• 11 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the last time I checked, this is the information I got. view
• 11 Mar 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the Chair is well informed. I will not contradict you at all. So, let me take this opportunity to apologise and make sure that I can convey the message to him that he is supposed to respond to this Question. I suggest that he can be made to respond by Tuesday next week. view
