• 27 May 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to lay the following Paper on the Table:- The 2015 Economic Survey STATISTICAL ABSTRACT 2014 I would also like to lay the following Paper on the Table:- Statistical Abstract 2014 THE SOCIAL ECONOMIC ATLAS OF KENYA/NATIONAL POPULATION CENSUS BY COUNTY AND SUB LOCATION Mr. Speaker Sir, I also have the third one which is:- The Social Economic Atlas of Kenya depicting the National Population census by county and sub location. view
• 27 May 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I rise to second although I did not attend the meeting principally because there was a problem with the notice. I have read the report on the mediated version--- view
• 27 May 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, this was not easy for this Committee. We are the ones who passed the amendments and have climbed down from our position. Therefore, I want to thank the Committee, through the Chair. I know the troubles that they have gone through. In fact, Sen. Mutahi Kagwe almost gave up on this mediation. However, for the sake of this country and the 47 counties, they not only stood their ground, but also negotiated on principle. This is not to say that the portion of the Kshs4.4 billion which the National Assembly Mediation team did not agree to, should ... view
• 26 May 2015 in Senate: .: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. This incident is embarrassing to this Republic. I want to remind the people who think that they own the President that he is actually a symbol of national unity and he does not belong to Jubilee. This is a serious matter. It is possible that the persons who planned this function and whatever it is that they did, are attempting to hide. This Senate may be the only recourse of saving the Head of State the embarrassment that he was caused of having to come back to Kenya and summon his Cabinet Secretary in ... view
• 21 May 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, if there is a Committee that needs to be given more funds, it is the Committee on Finance, Commerce and Budget. We have many petitions. I am happy to say that I have not seen Sen. (Prof.) Anyang’-Nyong’o who is the Chairperson of our sub-committee on Petitions. This is a wake-up call because in the recent past, I have seen that the Kenyan public has woken up to the fact that the Senate is the only hope, including the fact that, Sen. Hassan has brought today those we considered “Saul.” Now they become “Paul.” We hope they ... view
• 21 May 2015 in Senate: .: Madam Temporary Speaker, in the first instance, I want to thank Sen. Adan for this important and well detailed Motion. The statistics that I have in front of me about the extrajudicial killings, the people who are missing, the people who have sustained permanent body injuries, others who have been threatened and others who have been maimed, it is very saddening. To say that this is a crisis would be an understatement in every sense of the word. As I rise to support this, I must say that I relate to the events, sufferings and mistreatments of residents and ... view
• 20 May 2015 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Chairperson, Sir, I was just reminding my Chairperson that it is not assumed that in the absence of “may” you must say “shall” and it is not “could” or “should”. view
• 20 May 2015 in Senate: No, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I was just reminding him to go with the Order Paper. Thank you. view
• 20 May 2015 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Chairman, Sir, we might be challenged by the National Assembly on our amendments. So, let us tell the country why we are doing this. This is a very dangerous clause and that is why I support the amendment. You cannot give the Auditor-General independence in the Constitution and at the same time claw back by proposing that he needs to seek consent. Therefore, what must be said is that Clause 39 as appears in this Bill is unconstitutional to the extent that it limits or claws back the independent power of the Auditor-General to audit any government entity. view
• 20 May 2015 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Chairperson, Sir, the spirit of the amendment on (1) is so that we protect the independence of the Auditor-General. When we say the Auditor- General, it includes the members of staff. In the previous clauses, the Auditor-General, in our amendments, has been given authority to vet the officers that will work with him. To provide a second tire vetting process by the person who is being audited is to say that one security organ will pick Mutula, Kamau or another person whom they like to go and audit them. It is like choosing the judge in a court ... view
