• 23 Jun 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, with regard to the issue raised by Mr. Mungatana, I admit that at this point, I do not have numbers that I can quote as to how many hawkers have been settled in Mombasa. I can undertake to obtain and present to the House at a later date.

It view

• 23 Jun 2009 in National Assembly: Yes, Mr. Speaker, Sir. But I also want to state one thing, just as a matter of clarity, it is true we recognize that hawkers are part of the informal sector.

This is determining the Leader of Government Business and the Chairman of the House Business Committee. The Speaker made a ruling that we are all aware of in this House. I would like to say that consultations are still going on between the Principals so that this matter can be put to an end and a decision as to who should be the Leader of Government Business and Chairman of the House Business ... view
