• 10 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this chance to contribute to this Bill. From the outset, I support the Bill. As Hon. Kabando said, I want to say that it is good we continue supporting legislation that is going to help us fight corruption. We already have a lot of pieces of legislation to fight corruption. The only thing I am happy about is that there is inclusion of the private sector. However, I do not think there was anything that barred the private sector from reporting bribery cases. What we need in this country is not ... view

• 10 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: suspect. We also need to say how long the case should take once you report, so that we can know how long it will take to take the suspects to court. We should say it is not only the small people who will be taken to court. When you post a police officer on our roads, they will tell you it is a chain. They have to take bribes which they have to transmit to their heads. We saw the clean-up in the National Police Service where they were saying people were found with a lot of money. The only ... view
• 3 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. It is true my card is faulty, but they are rectifying it right away. I support this amendment because the role of the budget officer is not just to issue funds, but also enforce the budgetary ceiling. I cannot see any problem with this amendment. That is a function that should be performed by the Controller of Budget (CoB). It is good it is in law other than just assuming. What Hon. Mutura is trying to do is having it in law. It should not be an assumption. It should be there ... view
• 3 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman for indulging me. I support Hon. Benjamin Langat because, as a Committee, we looked at other independent commissions and offices. The way they recruit their staff is exactly the same way we are proposing. They do not consult the PSC because they are independent offices. That is why I support my Committee Chair. view
• 6 Jul 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. To respond to Njomo’s request, we discussed his amendment Bill. We have done the First and the Second Reading and we are about to go to the Committee Stage. Due to exigency of duties, we have not been able to conclude. I want to assure him that we are on the final stage and we will be requesting the HBC to prioritise the same Bill for the Committee Stage when we come back from recess. We think we still have to do an amendment on his Bill, but that will also depend on the HBC if ... view
• 6 Jul 2016 in National Assembly: the strict statutory timelines required of Parliament to consider those estimates, the Departmental Committee on Finance, Planning and Trade was called upon to consider estimates of the following ministries, departments and agencies (MDAs):- (a) The National Treasury; (b) The Ministry of Devolution and Planning; (c) The Ministry of Tourism; (d) The Ministry of Industrialization and Enterprise Development; (e) The Controller of Budget; (f) The Commission on Revenue Allocation (CRA); and (g) The Salaries and Remuneration Commission (SRC). We were also tasked with vetting nominees to the Privatisation Commission and the Competition Authority. Following the submission of the nominees for their ... view
• 6 Jul 2016 in National Assembly: Yes, Hon. Speaker. The reason is that we have talked to the CBK Governor and they have not been able to conclude the forensic audit that they ordered for the three banks. Before we table a report, we would like to know the outcome of that forensic audit. view
• 6 Jul 2016 in National Assembly: Yes, the forensic audit. We also want the receiver managers of the three banks to tell us their status because the public out there is asking when the banks will reopen or when they can access their deposits. We do not want to produce a half report. view
• 6 Jul 2016 in National Assembly: Sorry, Hon. Speaker. The mistake we did is that we wrote as from today. However, we also considered that we had already used up 25 of the 50 days. An extension of 50 days will only give us a remainder of 25 days from today. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
