• 26 Jul 2018 in Senate: We cannot, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. view
• 26 Jul 2018 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, I need your attention. From the Bill tracker that is on our very nice gadgets in front of us, the Physical Planning Bill was committed to the Committee on Lands, Environment and Natural Resources on 16th May, 2018. The 30 days lapsed on 15th June, 2018 and today is 26th July, 2018. We have Members of the Committee here, including Sen. Sylvia Kasanga. It is important that we know from the Committee what the position is because, as Sen. M. Kajwang rightly points out, there was a substantive issue raised in the last Session on the Physical ... view
• 26 Jul 2018 in Senate: On a point of Order, Madam Temporary Speaker. On the comments made by the Majority Leader--- view
• 26 Jul 2018 in Senate: No, Madam Temporary Speaker. It is on general direction on what you have said. I sought your intervention, as you have adjourned. The matter is over. However, there is an issue that I would like to raise. view
• 26 Jul 2018 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, it is a direction on the Standing Orders. If the Standing Orders direct a committee to table a report within 30 days and the report is not tabled within 30 days, there must be a default for purposes of movers of Bills. It cannot be that a delay becomes usual business and a complaint from the Senate Majority Leader because there is a Liaison Committee. There must be direction because this will become the order of the day and it will affect Government and private Members business. What is a Senator supposed to do if the 30 ... view
• 26 Jul 2018 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, this is alive and I would like to support this Motion. Sen. Kasanga may not be aware that the Institution of Engineers of Kenya (IEK) has issued a notice to do a protest because of what appears to be favouring of foreign contractors over our local engineers who are capable of doing work. I do not think, from the discussions that have been going on, that this matter has been given the emphasis that it should. Recently, the Senate Majority Leader said something that I found extremely curious. He said that Kenyans demand for Chinese contractors because ... view
• 25 Jul 2018 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I support the Statement. First, we have belaboured the point. Secondly, the words; hugging, kissing, fraternizing with witnesses and collecting money from witnesses did not emanate from the Senate. This Senate breathes life into this country. We are interrogating what people do not want to be interrogated. We are uncovering what they want to cover. We are removing the snakes from under the stones and they are shaking in their boots. When somebody says that they want to pass a Bill to scrap the Senate, yet they have not done even a single sentence ... view
• 25 Jul 2018 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we should learn to increase the number of buttons we have in the Senate – from “abstain,” “yes” and “no” to “ignore.” Every time they say something, we ignore it. view
• 25 Jul 2018 in Senate: We should start interrogating everything they do; in fact, let us make them even more upset. Let us interrogate this sugar issue, because we might find mercury, copper and zinc. That way, we will embarrass the devil that brings corruption into the Houses of Parliament. Thank you. view
• 25 Jul 2018 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Chairperson. I beg to move- THAT the Bill be amended by deleting Clause 7 and substituting therefor the following new Clause- view
