It has been stated that statutory instruments means any rule, order, regulation, direction, form, tariff of costs or fees, letters, patent, commission, warrant, proclamation, resolution, guideline or other statutory instrument issued, made or established in the execution of a power conferred by or under an Act of a County Assembly under which that statutory instrument or subsidiary legislation is expressly authorized to be issued. view
• 13 Mar 2019 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, through this Bill, we will promote high standards in the drafting of statutory instruments to ensure that they have legal effectiveness, clarity and intelligibility to the anticipated users. Madam Temporary Speaker, our counties suffer a lot because most of the time MCAs are not able to do their work diligently.

• 13 Mar 2019 in Senate: “Without limiting by implication the form that consultation referred to in subsection (1) might take, the consultation shall- (b) invites submissions to be made by specified date or invite participation in public hearings to be held concerning the proposed instrument” Madam Temporary Speaker, this means that this particular Bill will take care of everything and that in all the 47 counties there will be uniformity in practice when it comes to this particular area of statutory instrument. Madam Temporary Speaker, part IV under Scrutiny of Statutory Instruments by County Assemblies, Clause 10(1) states that: “Every regulation-making authority shall within seven ... view

• 27 Feb 2019 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I stand to support this important Petition. Many hon. Senators have already said how many Kenyans have suffered in the past and continue to suffer. view
• 27 Feb 2019 in Senate: We know that Kenyans are very hardworking people. Some of them have worked hard and bought and developed their parcels of land but when development comes, it appears as if we as Government do not care about our citizens. Any government which does not care about its citizens is not a visionary government. view
• 27 Feb 2019 in Senate: We have made many Kenyans to suffer in the past. We know many people who have committed suicide as a result of that and because of the frustrations they go through. Many have developed serious illnesses and many Kenyans continue to suffer. view
