• 29 Nov 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I beg to move:- THAT, the Bill be amended by deleting the Third Schedule. This is for the same reason that these are international conventions which cannot be placed within an Act of Parliament. view
• 29 Nov 2006 in National Assembly: November 29, 2006 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 4053 view
• 29 Nov 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I just want to congratulate the House for passing this Bill. This Bill is way overdue! However, I think that some lessons have to be learnt when you have a Bill like this, which is addressing multi-disciplinary issues. The Minister should consult with multiple Committees. In this case, I feel that he should have consulted not only with the Departmental Committee on Administration, National Security and Local Authorities but also with the Departmental Committees on Administration of Justice and Legal Affairs, and Defence and Foreign Affairs. This way, we would not have had so many ... view
• 28 Nov 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to ask the Attorney-General the following Question by Private Notice. (a) Why have the courts failed to implement the provisions of the Sexual Offences Act, 2006? (b) What urgent measures is the Attorney-General taking to ensure that all provisions of the Act are complied with by all actors? view
• 28 Nov 2006 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. The Sexual Offences Act, Section 48 charges the Attorney-General with implementation of this Act, in consultation with several other Ministers, who are also named in the Act. In that instance, is it not in order to ask either the Minister for Justice and Constitutional Affairs or the Minister of State for Administration and National Security to answer this Question? I do not see the reason for the delay. view
• 15 Nov 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I respect your decision. However, I am planning to move at least 14 to 20 amendments on this Bill. I feel that if I am not given the November 15, 2006 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 3711 opportunity to let the House know, for which reasons I will be moving the amendments, it will not be fair. Would you like to reconsider your decision? view
• 8 Nov 2006 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. First and foremost, may I congratulate the Mover of this Motion, hon. Dr. Julia Ojiambo for her efforts, particularly in this Parliament. She has brought before this House Motions and Bills which have helped our people. I stand to support this Motion because it is timely and well overdue. When we talk about providing financial support, particularly for poor women, I am always very happy. Women form 52 per cent of our population and yet they are still treated as second class citizens. This is especially so when it comes to accessing resources ... view
• 2 Nov 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to move the following Motion:- THAT, this House adopts the Report of the Departmental Committee on Administration of Justice and Legal Affairs on the deliberation on the nomination of commissioners to the Kenya National Commission on Human Rights laid on the Table of the House on Wednesday, 19th July, 2006. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the National Commission on Human Rights Act came into force in March, 2003, and at that time, this House appointed to office nine commissioners. The commissioners that were appointed were:- (a) Mr. Maina Kiai - Chairman (b) Ms. Violet Mavisi ... view
• 2 Nov 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I see that all hon. Members are supporting this Motion. However, some issues have been raised and I would like to donate the rest of time to the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Administration of Justice and Legal Affairs to respond. view
