• 24 Jul 2014 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I rise on a point of order to seek clarification on a matter that Senators are going through. As we enter the premise of the Senate, in spite of the fact that one has a sticker clearly indicated that one is going into the Senate, you are subjected to a process of writing in a book as if you are being monitored whether you were in or not. I understand issues of security. However, I also understand issues of disruption. view

• 24 Jul 2014 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for the benefit of the Senators, I just want to inform the House that yesterday the Committee on Information and Technology visited KBC. We even went to the studio that covers this House and we expressed the same sentiments that are being expressed here, including, not just the quantity of the coverage that the House gets, but also the quality of coverage we get. In other words, sometimes you can see a camera focusing on empty chairs which is really not supposed to be the case in parliamentary coverage. I think that that is only one ... view
• 23 Jul 2014 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Last time when this matter came up here as well as this time, the hon. Senator for Kakamega and my friend, Sen. Boni Khalwale, referred to the matter of Nyeri, which I clarified that I have not seen the money that he has been talking about. But that is not really my point. Would I be in order to propose to the hon. Senator for Kakamega that instead of talking as if he hates some people from certain regions getting any money for any hospitals, he could ask for money for ... view

• 23 Jul 2014 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I first want to respect the views of the Senator for Kisumu and therefore maintain a modicum of civility. However, I said and I repeat that it appears to me that the hon. Senator, whom I said I respect, is exhibiting some level of hatred. It appears to me, and the HANSARD will bear me witness. That is my opinion and I do not think there is any substantiation to be done. I want to believe that the appearance I have is wrong and it is not correct but at that ... view
• 23 Jul 2014 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I quite agree with Sen. Hassan that there are very distinguished persons on the other side, but did you notice The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only.

• 22 Jul 2014 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I gather that my colleagues would rather like us to go straight into voting on this matter, but let me just emphasize one small item. This is to do with a big issue that came up when we were mediating this process on whether, indeed, Level Five Hospitals have been devolved or not. As we sit here today, the question still begs an answer, because if we stick to Article 187(2) of the Constitution which says very clearly that money must follow a function that is devolved-- - We are getting Kshs1.87 billion for ... view
• 22 Jul 2014 in Senate: Thank you very much, Madam Temporary Speaker. I also rise to support the Bill. In doing so, I also wish to bring up something that Sen. Kajwang also mentioned here. It is all very nice for us to say that we should spend 30 per cent or 40 per cent, but if you look at the Schedule of the expected expenditure on development, you will see that, for example, the Nyeri County is budgeted to spend 19 per cent of its resources for development. It is not out of choice that, that money has been put there, because I have ... view
