• 25 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) Yes, I am aware that Mumias Urban Water Supply, which was constructed more than 30 years ago, cannot meet the current water demands for Mumias Town due to rapid population growth over the years without corresponding increase in water production. (b) My Ministry, through the National Water Conservation and Pipeline Corporation (NWCPC), has drilled a borehole in Mumias Town. The borehole is expected to alleviate the water shortage once it is equipped and commissioned. My Ministry, with the assistance of the Government of Germany, has commissioned a consultant to undertake feasibility ... view
• 25 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I appreciate the comments made by the hon. Member. However, that is a short-term measure. The long-term measure, as I said earlier, is to expand the system to cope with the demand. The existing system was meant to serve 40,000 people and yet the population in Mumias Town is now over 100,000 people. To be able to cope with this large number of people, we need to expand the whole system and that requires money. That is why we are looking for donors to come in so that they can partner with the Ministry of Water ... view
• 25 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, yes, I could consider that. It is possible. However, I have said that I have commissioned a consultant who will give me a report before the end of this financial year so that we can do whatever he recommends in the next financial year. view
• 25 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, as a short-term measure, my Ministry will spend Kshs2 million to drill a borehole, which will supply more water to the town. However, for the long-term plan, the amount of money to be spent will be determined by the study which I have commissioned. Once the study is completed, I will be in a position to state how much money we shall require. With regard to the issue of damming of River Nzoia, that is a priority in our Ministry. We want to do major dams upstream so that we can permanently control the problem of ... view
• 19 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is it in order for hon. Ojode to keep on quoting a report which you have not verified? view
• 19 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I hate to interrupt my friend. However, will I be in order to request for your guidance on this matter, because the hon. Member has tabled a report which you have rejected? Do we, therefore, take it that he has not tabled any report? view
• 19 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Our rules prohibit hon. Members to discuss others without moving a Substantive Motion. Has the hon. Member now moved from his original Motion in order to discuss hon. Michuki? If so, then he is wrong! Is he in order? view
• 19 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. You ruled here earlier that hon. Members should not come here to malign names of persons who cannot defend themselves here, without bringing substantive evidence before the House. Could the hon. Member on the Floor table evidence showing that Ms. Wangui has been protected as a matter of state security? view
• 17 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Is it in order for the hon. Member to drag the name of Mr. Kamama into his argument and calling him a warlord? view
