• 22 Jun 2006 in National Assembly: asked the Attorney-General:- (a) how were the lawyers that defended the Government on the suit on the Referendum last year identified; (b) how much were they paid for the service; and, (c) which other public bodies do the lawyers act for. view
• 22 Jun 2006 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. You can see that the Attorney- General is cheeky and is unwilling to divulge a lot of information--- view
• 22 Jun 2006 in National Assembly: Much obliged, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I withdraw the remark and apologise to the House. There is more than meets the eye in this answer. One of the letters dated 15th that was written by the Solicitor-General on behalf of the Attorney-General reads: "The Solicitor-General has been directed by the Attorney-General and hon. Kiraitu Murungi to appoint the firm of Kamau Kuria and Kiraitu Murungi Advocates to act on the matter." The date of that appointment is 15th August, 2005. However, there is an earlier letter by Dr. Kuria, asking to be paid Kshs12 million before being appointed. That letter ... view
• 22 Jun 2006 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. view
• 22 Jun 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, you heard the Attorney-General deny the existence of letters and legitimate correspondence. I have them here. Would I be in order to table them and then give the Attorney-General time to go through them, because this is a very serious issue? view
• 22 Jun 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, in response to my first Question the Attorney-General denied the existence of letters. Mr. Kamau Kuria was appointed on 15th August. There is a letter written by Mr. Kuria giving his fee note on 12th August and citing Waweru Gatonye as the channel through which the fee note will be done. Those letters are there. In view of the fact that the Attorney-General has not seen them or responded to them, would I be in order to ask for deferment of this Question so that we can get the correct answer? view
• 14 Jun 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, you heard the Assistant Minister saying that nothing is being done to resettle the displaced persons. Having acknowledged that this is a natural disaster affecting Kenyans of genuine need, is it in order for the Assistant Minister to say that nothing is being done to re-settle Kenyans, however few or many they are? view
• 14 Jun 2006 in National Assembly: asked the Attorney-General:- (a) who the lawyers representing the Government at the Goldenberg Inquiry were; (b) how much they were paid and who negotiated the payment; and, (c) whether he could justify the payments. view
• 14 Jun 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, you have heard how preposterous this answer is. The Office of the Attorney-General, in view of its importance, should be above reproach. It should also be very generous in terms of information to this House. I know that the Goldenberg Inquiry was a public inquiry paid for by the members of the public. If the Attorney- General says that the Government was not represented by the lawyers who were involved, namely, Dr. Khaminwa, Dr. Kamau Kuria and others, then who paid for their services? Was it not the public? view
• 14 Jun 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we can all see that the Attorney-General is hiding under legalistic language and technicalities. The Government is constituted by various departments, including courts and other departments that are not traditionally defined as Government. However, the bottom line is that they work for the public and are paid for by the same. Is it, therefore, in order for the Attorney-General to conceal the names of these lawyers and how much they were paid? Is it also in order for him to hide under legalistic arguments to deny this House very vital information? Is the Office of the ... view
