• 11 Mar 2015 in Senate: .: Mr. Speaker, Sir, we call it a “confession” in law. Let me call it an admission. view
• 11 Mar 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, again, on that issue, probably, your direction should, in a kamukunji or off-camera, find us a method of how that Bill will come to this Senate before it is passed at the National Assembly. We have waited for very long. We are always the ones who are given these documents late so that we appear to be “ Johnny come lately” in the legislation process which should not happen. view
• 11 Mar 2015 in Senate: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, the Constitution – forget about the Standing Orders – the constitution is what gives us power as a Senate or as committees and it says what we should do and on what basis we should act. I sometimes think I say these things too much; but I think I should say it again. Article 125 is clear that when a Committee is acting, it should act as a court and, therefore, they should follow rules of evidence which require that a document must be signed if they are supported, et cetera . There is no other ... view
• 10 Mar 2015 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Although the distinguished Senator gave this Statement to me at about 2.00 p.m., I have actually managed to read it in detail. I just need one clarification. I want to thank him together with his Committee because the document is fairly detailed. There is only one issue which I would require further clarification on.

If it is paid in advance, these people should be surcharged. If it is not paid in advance, it means that, therefore, there is no reason the contract cannot be completed quickly. view
• 5 Mar 2015 in Senate: .: Thank you Mr. Speaker, Sir. The Committee on Legal Affairs and Human Rights completed work on two Petitions in November last year. When we inquired from our Secretariat, we were told that the petitions were pending in the Office of the Clerk. As you give direction, you should consider that some of the hard working committees have done their work and, therefore, some of those things are stuck due to the bureaucracies in the offices. In your direction, we should know whether the 60 days include the time when the bureaucracy is not working well. view
• 5 Mar 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, perhaps I heard it wrong but the question that was asked by Sen. Elachi was to the Committee on Information and Technology. My senior, the Senator for Murang’a County answered the question. I do not know whether you have varied the question in so far as where it should go. view
• 5 Mar 2015 in Senate: Thank you Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
• 5 Mar 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, with your consent, I will donate the 15 minutes in reply to the Senate Minority Leader, Sen. Wetangula, Sen. Munyes, Sen. Mositet and Sen. (Dr.) Kuti. Each could take about three to four minutes so that I respond after that. view
• 5 Mar 2015 in Senate: The Senate Minority Leader can take five minutes and the rest can share out up to two minutes each. view
