• 15 May 2014 in Senate: On a point of information, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. view
• 15 May 2014 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I can inform him if he so wish. view
• 15 May 2014 in Senate: Thank you, Sen. Muthama. I am aware that this is addressed to the Senate Majority Leader. But I wish to inform the House we are talking about two different things. The Kshs226 billion that has been allocated is not an estimate of monies we will get, but the actual amount of money that we are going to get. It is also based on the amount that was given. I think there is some confusion regarding the annual estimates and the actual monies that have been allocated. The monies allocated are actual, but the estimated monies for the year are estimates. view
• 15 May 2014 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I will start by helping my colleague on the point that he was raising regarding the letter that came from the governor vis-à-vis the aspect or Level 5 Hospitals. It is very important for this point to be understood by the entire House and, indeed, the country. If you look at Kakamega, Kisumu and Nyeri general hospitals, you will find that people come as far as Uganda to visit the Kisumu General Hospital. Some people come from as far as Marsabit to visit the Nyeri General Hospital. What the governors have accepted and brought to us ... view
• 15 May 2014 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is it in order for hon. Sen. Gideon Moi to walk around as if he is walking in a market place? I do not know what he is telling Senators all over the place. Is he in order and yet he is a very experienced friend of mine in terms of procedure? view
• 15 May 2014 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we appreciate the hard work that Sen. Moi is doing even though he is preaching to the converted. I said that we appreciate the maturity that Kenyans continue to show the world in some areas following the change in the Constitution in the year 2010. The healthy debate that is going on in this House, including the views from both the Opposition side and the Government side, are healthy to the extent that I have not heard a single word that was spoken in vain, as a matter of frustration or simple opposition. What I have ... view
• 15 May 2014 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. With all due respect to Sen. Orengo, I think that there was a very good explanation given. In my opinion, perhaps, there could have been a mistake, but a mistake is not tantamount to fraud. In this House, as Members of the Senate, to accuse one another of fraud, in such an unsubstantiated manner, is really out of order. Would I be in order to request Sen. Orengo to use the only language that he would like used on him? The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information ... view
• 15 May 2014 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. That explanation was actually given by the Chairman when he explained very clearly that the figure that was used last year was used erroneously on the grounds that it had not been approved by Parliament. That is what was clearly said to us by the Chairman of the Committee. In fact, he said very clearly that last year it was a mistake. That is why they had corrected it this year. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can ... view
• 15 May 2014 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I appreciate the concern that the hon. Senator and, indeed, also Sen. Muthama, have expressed. But I think that it was explained very clearly as follows: First, the figures that were used last year were audited, but not approved, which is the mistake that was made. The Chairman owned up to the fact that the figures at that time were a mistake. Whatever the figures were; either Kshs600 billion or Kshs500 billion, they were audited, but not approved. So, all sorts of changes would have happened between auditing and approval. I ... view
