• 28 Oct 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker Sir. I have listened carefully to all the pronouncements made by my fellow Senators. Frankly, I want to say that I am a little disappointed. One, because none of you as bothered to say that your fellow Senators have The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only.

• 28 Oct 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. My Chairman, Sen. Mutahi Kagwe, has very nice words but always qualifies them when he finishes the sentence but I appreciate together with other Senators. Senators, I do not think even in your arguments and appreciating the work, we have, in fact, delved in to the details of this. Let me highlight that the work that you are doing as Senators under Article 96, there is an injunction. There are also injunctions in your work in the oversight committee and under Article125, the right by the committee to summon witnesses. Make no mistake that ... view
• 28 Oct 2014 in National Assembly: In fact, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, the word that was used by Sen. (Dr.) Machage in so far as the date is concerned, suggested that there are people who wanted to be paid as Chairperson and Vice Chairperson in retrospect. That is all there was about allowances and I think it was being a little – let me use the word – “petty.” The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only.

• 28 Oct 2014 in National Assembly: Well, let me substantiate and, in fact, withdraw the word “petty.” I think there are Senators who suggested that somebody wanted to be paid in retrospect and they were being misled or were misinformed about the true purpose of this Committee. Therefore, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir--- view
• 28 Oct 2014 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, Sen. Kagwe is being a little mischievous. I do not think I said those words. view
• 28 Oct 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. Therefore, as I conclude, I want to ask the Senators who are right in front of me and who ably opposed this Motion for reasons that this is a matter that should go to the Committee on Legal Affairs and Human Rights, to consider that, in fact, if you come to the Committee, there is a larger agenda than we should have because of many things that need to be done. But this Committee, from what I have seen in the recent past, is an extreme sacrifice from your fellow Senators in order to ... view
• 28 Oct 2014 in National Assembly: .: Thank you Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I beg to move that the Government Proceedings Amendment Bill, Senate Bill No.10 of 2014, be read a Second Time. The amendment contained in the Governments Proceedings Act seems to amend Section 21 of the Government Proceedings Act by inserting the following new sub section immediately after sub section 4 which will read; “this section shall, with necessary modifications apply to any civil proceedings by or against a county government in any proceeding in connection with any arbitration in which a county government is a party.” The electronic version of the Senate Hansard ... view
• 22 Oct 2014 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I have the Speech by His Excellency the President, which reminds me of many things. If my father was alive today, he would have said; “I told you.” When he presented a Bill to Parliament on this issue, it was rejected. I remember vividly when he said that the President of the Republic at the time and the Prime Minister should resign because they had let down this country by allowing our citizens to be subjected to an international court process when we would have handled this here. Maybe he is listening in his ... view

• 25 Sep 2014 in Senate: .: Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I rise to support this Motion with reservations, but say that it is timely. My reservations are as follows: The definition given to a child under the law is a person below the age of 18 years. This Motion quotes Article 45 (1) as the basis on which it should be recognized. Article 45 (1) provides that the family is the natural and fundamental unit of society and the necessary basis for social order. However, this law did not intent this family to be made up of children below the age of 18 years. While ... view
