• 10 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: The local authorities officers who are overseeing this trustland for the communities are more concerned with the levy or fees they get from the companies than with the livelihood of the people that live there. With this inco-ordination, we might end up with an environment that is degraded, lost livelihoods of people and countries which do not care about the future of the land. view
• 10 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, could the Assistant Minister assure this House that the local authorities will give the companies licences for mining in consideration of the livelihoods of the people and the benefits that the companies will deliver to the people who live there and not just the levies they collect from companies? view
• 5 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I thought I was the first one to seek a Fe bruary 5, 2009 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES view
• 5 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I just want to say that you have been going through terrible moments, maybe since yesterday and your ability to recall might be a problem. view
• 5 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: In the face of the disasters that seem to befall this country last year and this year, I seek a Ministerial Statement from the Minister of State for Special Programmes. This is also in line within us here, that confine this House to a position where some of the Members are trying to doubt where the exit halls to this Parliament Buildings are. view
• 5 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: The Minister should, in the Statement, clarify the Government's preparedness to handle disasters in this country and also the criteria used to classify events or incidents as disasters in this country. view
• 5 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I wish the Statement also covers a brief on the Government's intervention on disasters in the years 2008 and 2009 and whether there are contingency measures in place for handling these disasters. It should also include the annual budgetary allocation on disasters and the monies received from the Government for the last two years to cover these disasters. It should also include money received from donors and the general public. How much of the money has so far been used and what balance as reserve do we have? Not grain reserves, but money reserves for disasters. view
• 5 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, in the Statement, I wish the Minister also covers the presence or denies of a policy document on disaster that maybe, went up to the Cabinet level or indeed, as the Minister opined yesterday, whether we are only left to the mercy of the kind Kenyans who are active in response to disaster management even before the Government responds. view
• 5 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: Thank you. view
• 3 Feb 2009 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is not only in Lerata but in many constituencies in the ASALs. The National Water and Pipeline Corporation (NWPC) sunk several boreholes and in my own constituency in a small village by the name Bandare they sunk two boreholes. Even in your constituency Lagdera, they sunk two boreholes there but up to date, they have not been commissioned. The Ministry is not even telling us whether they struck water or oil. view
