• 1 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I had even conferred with his colleague, Prof. Olweny, that we will need a firm proof that at least circulars have been sent to head teachers. It is something that they know. So, it is not again for the Assistant Minister to tell us that they will bring evidence of circulars which have been sent out; they knew that it was an obvious thing that was to be demanded by this House. How else are we going to believe his word if he has no document to table to show that ... view
• 1 Nov 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is the Minister in order to mislead the House by saying that there are isolated cases when I know that in my own constituency, the two secondary schools sent students home en masse, and it had to take my intervention, as the Member of Parliament, and use the Constituencies Development Fund (CDF) kitty for the students to be back to the schools? Besides, if they have not given any money to the schools, how do they expect the teachers to maintain the students in school? Can the Minister table evidence of ... view
• 27 Oct 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, when the Assistant Minister was referring to the conduit being used by the cattle rustlers, he said that they usually use a security road which links up Kuria, Nyatike and Migori districts. Is he referring to it an “insecurity” road or “security” road? What are they doing as a Ministry to ensure that, that road serves the purpose it was meant for and not become an insecurity road? view
• 27 Oct 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I thank hon. Chepchumba for that. Mr. Speaker, Sir, you heard the Assistant Minister say that the Government regulates the prices through KIE. Then he talked again of KIE assisting another body to regulate. Could the Assistant Minister tell us the other body that approves books, other than KIE? What is the name of the body? view
• 27 Oct 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, you realize that hon. Ethuro said that creditors to the Municipal Council are owed up to Kshs11 million against realizable assets of about Kshs3 million. Now that we are going to a new dispensation, how does the Minister plan for the new counties to start on a clean bill of health, or on a positive note, rather than having Kshs6 million in salary arrears? view
• 27 Oct 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The LATF has been there. It is not something that the Government is starting afresh. It has always been there, but the debts have been piling up. What deliberate effort are they making to ensure that, at least, all counties start on a clean footing, notwithstanding the LATF they keep? view
• 27 Oct 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, with your indulgence, I would like to seek two clarifications and very briefly. One, are the members that the Leader of Government Business wants to appoint aimed at replacing the three who resigned, or he is reappointing the whole committee? Secondly, the Leader of Government Business said that the Liaison Committee directed the Departmental Committee on the Administration of Justice and Legal Affairs to meet and elect a chairperson. Could he table the evidence in form of minutes of such direction that was given by the Liaison Committee? view
• 27 Oct 2011 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Is hon. Mbadi in order to mislead the House that hon. Isaac Ruto is misleading this House when, indeed, he is citing the Standing Orders? Standing Order No.169 says:- “If a Member fails to attend four consecutive sittings of a Committee without the written permission of a chairperson of the Committee, or the permission of the Speaker, if the Member is the chairperson, the Member or the chairperson as the case may be, shall cease to be a Member of that Committee and the matter shall be reported to the Liaison Committee.” ... view
