• 25 Mar 2014 in National Assembly: The Supplementary Appropriation Bill, 2014 has taken into account all the recommendations of this House on the first Supplementary Estimates for this Financial Year. Critical input by this House included reductions on allocations to the Salaries Review Commission (SRC) meant for the wage conference by Kshs.50 million, thereby giving the SRC Kshs.120 million; reducing funds for the Ministry of Devolution and Planning meant for Civil Service Reforms Secretariat by Kshs.293 million and reduction of funds for the National Treasury meant for wages for temporary employees by Kshs.126 million, among others. view
• 25 Mar 2014 in National Assembly: The House reallocated those funds to other needy sectors. This included Kshs.100 million for the Gotu killer bridge in Isiolo; Kshs300 million for the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) to employ additional prosecutors and an allocation of Kshs.200 million to the State Law Office, among others.

• 25 Mar 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, on the matter that has received a bit of attention from the Floor so far, we allocated Kshs.80 million to the PSC to undertake, through a Committee of seven persons to be working under the Auditor-General and reporting to my Committee and thereafter to this House, a socio-economic audit of the Kenya Constitution, 2010.

We thank those who paid heavily to make sure that this country got ... view
• 25 Mar 2014 in National Assembly: five years and another in ten years so that, as we settle in the Constitution, we do not find ourselves entrenching and accepting bad habits. So, this is important so that we accept to ourselves whether some of the challenges we have are purely managerial or whether they are systemic; whether they are institutional or whether they are created by the structures that we have adopted, either through the Constitution or the laws that we make as Parliament, or through the administrative arms of the Government of the day. So, hon. Speaker, this House in its own wisdom passed and ... view
• 25 Mar 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon. Speaker. I wish to take this opportunity to thank hon. Members of this House for their very incisive and accurate analysis of our situation. They have indicated which way the country needs to go. Budget is so crucial in the way we run our State of affairs. I have taken note of the comments that have been made and, where I may have forgotten, the Parliamentary Budget Office will look at the Hansard and assist us in the committees. We will seek to be faithful and adhere to the weight of the arguments as put across by ... view
• 25 Mar 2014 in National Assembly: given the attention they deserve. Money matters are never easy but we seek to give leadership and be as inclusive as possible. I cannot respond to all the comments that have been made, but allow me to just indicate that, again, this country needs the audit. Anybody who has been involved in running institutions - and many of us have been - will agree with me that an institution--- The Government is by far the largest institution in any country. If it has gone through changes in its mother law, it needs from time to time to do an evaluation ... view
