• 9 Sep 2009 in National Assembly: With those few remarks, I do not support this amendment. view
• 26 Aug 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) Yes, I am aware that Nairobi Chapel is occupying a plot adjacent to the Ministry of Energy demonstration plot for renewable energy. Motoine River flows through the plot to the ASK Showground water dam. The church has constructed a temporary bridge over the water cause and not a concrete barrier on the river as stated. The said plot is also a wetland, but is not the source of the Motoine River as stated by the hon. Member. However, the Ministry is not aware how the church was allocated the plot. The developments ... view
• 26 Aug 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, we have done our part. I advise the hon. Member to find out what the Ministry of Lands is doing to cancel that allocation. Since the hon. Member is a close friend of the Prime Minister who is in charge of repossessing all the wetlands and water towers, he should go ahead and do so, immediately. That would be more urgent than asking the Assistant Minister to do so. view
• 26 Aug 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, we are taking this issue very seriously. We have seen that orders have been issued. We will also consult the Prime Minister’s Office and the Provincial Administration. But on this particular case, we will take action immediately once the Provincial Administration gives us the support required. view
• 26 Aug 2009 in National Assembly: On the issue of other occupied wetlands, we are asking Members to give us information. In your constituencies where you feel we should intervene, then you should inform us immediately. view
• 26 Aug 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I am an Assistant Minister. So, I cannot seek clarification, but it is good for the House to have the records clear. The Prime Minister said--- view
• 26 Aug 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of information, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The information I would like to give the Prime Minister is that the Kshs200,000 he has said is salary paid to Assistant Ministers is our salary as Members of Parliament, transferred to the Ministry. We receive our salaries there, as Members of Parliament, and not as Assistant Ministers. All we receive is allowances of Kshs100,000. view
• 20 Aug 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, this Question was supposed to be answered by the Prime Minister. But now in my capacity, I have been directed to answer it by the Prime Minister. I will go ahead and do so. Yesterday, he got a lot of powers! I beg to reply. My Ministry is constructing Ndikiki Water Supply which will serve Ndindiruku, Kiumbi and Kianugu areas that are traversed by Murubara stream on the downstream of the Mwea GK Prison. The project which is estimated to cost Kshs25million is being funded by IFAD and is about 40 percent complete. When completed, it will ... view
• 20 Aug 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, we have requested the Mwea GK Prison, now that they have a borehole, to allow the local communities to draw water from it. We are also setting aside some funds to make sure that we can have an extension pipe and a tank where the community can be able to fetch water without interfering with the GK Prison. We are also going to send geologists next week to tell us whether we can be able to sink a bore hole so that the surrounding communities could start drawing water there immediately. view
• 20 Aug 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, we are having a meeting early next week with the Office of the Vice-President and Ministry of Home Affairs so that we can see whatever can be done on emergency basis. We are also going, next week but one, to visit the GK Prison with the hon. Member. We have already agreed and we are also requesting the Vice-President to send his representative so that we sort out this issue amicably so that the prisons will not go behind our back and refuse to allow the community to draw water from them. If there is any need ... view
