• 4 Jul 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to differ with the Assistant Minister on this issue touching on promotions in the police force because some officers who were recruited as constables have stagnated in one scale for more than 12 years. Besides, the method of promoting one on merit which the Assistant Minister is insisting on is not followed because the Police Promotions Board also considers the tribal balance of the officers. Could the Assistant Minister confirm to this House whether also the tribal balance is used to the disadvantage of some police officers? view
• 4 Jul 2007 in National Assembly: He knows! view
• 4 Jul 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, when we talk about "tribal balance", we are talking about ethnic equity. view

• 20 Jun 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, lotteries and charities are collecting and mobilising a lot of money from the public. Toto lottery, as the Vice-President has just alluded, seems to be controlled by a few directors from a family. Could the Vice-President tell us what guarantee or security this lottery has provided to ensure that the public is not duped? view
• 20 Jun 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, Toto lotteries seem to be doing a roaring business. Under the Act, the Board can vary the 25 per cent sum which is channelled to good causes to 45 per cent. Could the Vice-President and Minister for Home Affairs consider raising the percentum for Toto lotteries to 45 per cent of the total collections for good causes, as it is provided for in the Act? view
• 20 Jun 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Assistant Minister has indicated in his answer to part "b" of the Question that the Ministry will deploy more staff to the dispensaries once the inspection and gazettement has been done. However, since in this year's Budget there is no provision in the Ministry of Health for recruitment of additional medical staff, where will the Ministry actually get the additional staff to be deployed to these institutions? view
• 20 Jun 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, there is a big problem between the Ministry officials. There is also apathy towards CDF projects by the Ministry of Water and Irrigation officials. CDF projects are properly managed, but the Ministry officials have been demanding a share of the funds in the implementation of the projects. When this money is not forthcoming, they sabotage the projects. Could the Minister take this as a typical example and find out exactly whose fault it is and punish the officer who occasioned this mess? view
• 20 Jun 2007 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this chance. Let me, first of all, thank the Minister for his eloquent and comprehensive Budget Speech, which actually lifted the spirit of the country, with notable proposals of making Kenya an industrialized nation by the year 2030. The Speech has been characterized variously by various analysts. I concur with the proposal 1962 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES June 20, 2007 that with this Budget in place, we are likely to put this country into the path of becoming a middle income economy. We, as leaders, have to acknowledge the progress and development ... view
