19 Aug 2015 in National Assembly:
Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. This for me is a very good amendment. One, it recognizes effort; I think the idea of saying that we give equal priority even to those who are pursing parallel degrees as opposed to those who are going through regular programmes is not good. I want to congratulate Hon. Irungu Kangata on this. I was very impressed when a student from a secondary school I started four years ago, an orphan, got grade “A” minus. Why would such a student not be given priority over somebody like my child, who is able to get ...

19 Aug 2015 in National Assembly:
Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I just wish to support this amendment. Even as I support, let me also congratulate the Committee headed by my good friend, Hon. Chepkong’a. On this and the Companies Bill, the Committee did a good job. As you know, those are very voluminous Bills. I can assure you that if it was not for the work that his Committee did, the Committee Stage of this Bill would have taken days, if not weeks. So, I really support the amendment and thank him.

19 Aug 2015 in National Assembly:
Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, if you look at the Bill, you will notice that the marginal note talks about the circumstances under which a company may be liquidated by the court. The import of this amendment, which I agree with and support - if you go back to where we started, the Insolvency Bill came before the Companies Bill but--- The Insolvency Bill makes a lot of references to the Companies Bill. That is consequential because a company cannot become insolvent until it is formed. The fact that the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affair brought the Companies Bill ...

19 Aug 2015 in National Assembly:
Hon. Deputy Speaker, I beg to second that the Higher Loans Board (Amendment) Bill be read the Third Time. As I second this Bill, it is our duty, as representatives of the people to support any measure that removes barriers to access of education to many children in Kenya. Some of us who sit in this House would not be here today if these barriers were there. Therefore, as beneficiaries of a system that enabled even people from disadvantaged backgrounds to access higher education, this is a good move. As we move forward, let us remove as many of these ...

19 Aug 2015 in National Assembly:
Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. Again, I rise to support. The marginal note here is on the share assets to be made available for unsecured creditors where floating charge relates to the company’s property. Again, I agree with the Chairman of the Committee that by referring to a particular--- Those of us who went through the amendments in the Companies Bill will know that a number of the clauses were rearranged. So, to refer to a particular clause or a particular Section would amount to misinforming in the sense that, that may not be so in the final Act. ...

19 Aug 2015 in National Assembly:
Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. Clause 498 is on offences involving commission of fraudulent acts in anticipation of liquidation. As has rightly been put by the Chairman of the Committee, that particular Section that is being referred to was deleted when we did the amendments here on the Companies Bill. To that extent, it is superfluous and it does not make sense. I support.

19 Aug 2015 in National Assembly:
Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. This particular clause is on service of documents for purposes of this Act. It has been ably highlighted by the Chairman of the Committee. This is due to the re-arrangements that are consequential upon the passage of the Companies Act. Reference to particular clauses might become superfluous and merely referring to the Companies Act is good enough. I support.
