• 30 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I had forgotten! I wish to apologise for not having been able to reach here by the time you called out this Question yesterday. I was held up in a traffic jam. view
• 30 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I beg to reply. (a) The residents of Bumala Market are currently supplied with clean piped water from Bujumba-Burinda Water Supply, which is managed by Bujumba-Burinda Water Users Association. The water supply will be supplemented by Funyula-Bumala Water Supply which will be rehabilitated and augmented under the ongoing Water and Sanitation Programme for Nzoia Cluster Phase II (b) My Ministry has set aside Kshs3 million in the 2007/2008 Financial Year for development of Neela Irrigation Scheme, Ibanda, Burinda, Irana and Mundasi irrigation schemes in Butula Constituency have been identified for development and a feasibility ... view
• 30 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, as I said, the Funyula-Bumala Water Supply which will be rehabilitated and augmented under the ongoing Water and Sanitation Programme for Nzoia Cluster Phase II, is ongoing. We have not reached Bumala. view
• 30 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I think the hon. Member is not being fair. He knows very well that this Ministry has done quite a lot. There are areas that actually need boreholes more than others. In areas which are closer to rivers and lakes, we do provide them with piped water. The hon. Member knows very well that even his own constituency was supplied with piped water, which has spread even more than the way the borehole would have served. For example, the Sidindi-Malanga Water Project. Many other water projects are in his constituency. He must appreciate this. In fact, ... view
• 30 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, first of all, we started from the hon. Member's constituency and knows that very well. The programme was launched by His Excellency the Vice- President and Minister for Home Affairs. We are still continuing with it. Bumala is also covered. That means that the whole of Busia and Teso districts are covered under this project. view
• 30 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the first workplan is to identify the areas that are viable for irrigation in that constituency. Indeed, my Ministry has identified Ibanda, Burinda, Irana and Mundasi. For us to come up with a complete workplan, a feasibility study is being done. After the feasibility study, we will be able to have the workplan on how to undertake the projects. We are now ready to start work on the Neela Irrigation Scheme after a feasibility study was done on the same. view
• 30 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. It is common knowledge that hon. Members are not allowed to come in carrying handbags. That includes women Members of Parliament. I am surprised to see the Attorney-General, who is the Government Legal Advisor, coming in with a hand bag! view

• 30 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. It seems like the House is flouting the rules without your knowledge. After the Attorney-General having come in with a handbag, again I can see hon. Abdalla with a handbag right inside the Chamber. Would the Chair now protect this House? view
• 23 Aug 2007 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I must declare my interest in this Question. The market in question is in my constituency. The people there vote in Lurambi Constituency. The boundary between the new Butere District and Kakamega District lies a kilometre away from this market; in fact, behind the market. The people there mix freely. If we now say that this market belongs to Marama, I fear that it will bring disharmony. view
