18 Jun 2015 in National Assembly:
There is a precedent to this. In this same House, we have passed the law governing the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) which recruits its own staff. The import of the President’s Memorandum is that the Office of the Auditor-General will be required to recruit its own staff in consultation with the (PSC). This is fundamental. As we go into this consideration, what happens when we have two Articles of the Constitution which seem to be in conflict? More fundamentally, if you look at the President’s last Memorandum, he is recommending that the regulations governing the Public Audit Bill ...

No! No! I am just giving direction on what to look at. One of the entities being audited by the Auditor-General is the Cabinet Secretary for the Ministry of Finance. Would it, therefore, be in order for an entity which is the subject of an audit to make regulations that will govern how it is audited? These are the things we need to watch out for as we consider going forward. I thank you.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, first of all, I would request you to encourage Members to desist from this habit of bamboozling others by always claiming “when we were in the 10th Parliament”. Sometimes that is misleading.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, when it is intended as an instrument of intimidation, then it is not right.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, allow me, and I will request for patience here, to take you through the Standing Order No.136. It says that:- “Procedure on Bills reported from the Committee of the whole House (1) When a Bill has been reported from a Committee of the whole House, the House shall consider the Bill as reported upon a Motion “That the House do agree with the Committee in the said report”. (2) The question on any Motion moved under paragraph (1) shall be put forthwith, no amendment, adjournment or debate being allowed, unless any Member desires to delete or ...

“A Member who desires to delete or amend any provision contained in a Bill, or to introduce a new provision in the Bill under paragraph (2) may propose any amendment to add, at the end of a Motion under paragraph (1), the words “subject to the re-committal of the Bill (in respect of some specified part or of some proposed new clause or new schedule) to a Committee of the whole House” and if that Motion is agreed to with such an amendment, the Bill shall stand so re- committed and the House shall either forthwith upon a day named ...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. You have taken 15 seconds of my time. I thank you for giving me the opportunity to contribute to the Report. I note that the Report was done in a hurry. This is shown by the number of typographical errors in the Report. The Report says that Dr. Ngugi got his Bachelor’s Degree in 1993, which is not true. That would suggest that he got his degree as an old man of 32 years. He got his degree in 1983, but I suppose that will take care of the fact that we probably needed ...

16 Jun 2015 in National Assembly:
This Report by the PIC highlights some of the things that are very wrong with our country where investors come to Kenya with the promise that they are going to improve things and transfer wealth to our people but the underlying motives are to fleece our economy. It is very sad. It is sadder that this usually happens with connivance and active collaboration of our own people. Looking at this Report, I want to believe that their recommendation particularly that the Ethics and Anti- Corruption Commission (EACC) should investigate circumstances under which the Cabinet’s decision for the modernisation and refurbishment ...
