• 28 Mar 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, you took my time! It is not yet time. I thought you would add me the two minutes to my time. view
• 28 Mar 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am saying that the Minister is willing to give the money, but the youth have no ID cards. view
• 28 Mar 2007 in National Assembly: Could I have the two minutes now? view
• 6 Dec 2006 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir. I thought this House was supposed to dialogue and get a voice of reason. That is why we should scrutinize this Bill. Is it in order for the Minister to say: "You either have this or none", without giving the House reasons for his stand? That is coercion, in my understanding. view
• 6 Dec 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I do not intend to take longer than necessary. The Committee came up with two reports, 1998/1999 and 1999/2000. The issues that were raised in December 6, 2006 PARLIAMEANTARY DEBATES 4261 both financial years were more or less similar. However, there are two issues I would like to raise before I conclude, so that I allow hon. Members to contribute to this Motion. Mr. Speaker, Sir, as Parliament, we need to stand up to be counted. It is now in the public domain that Continental House had a query in the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) Report. I ... view
• 5 Dec 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I thought that it was for the Chair to call upon the Mover to reply. I am sorry. view
• 5 Dec 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, ordinarily when the Chair is on his feet it is not allowed for another hon. Member to stand up. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I thank you for this chance to respond. To err is human and so we appreciate the fact that you realised it and rectified the situation. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to thank all hon. Members who have view
• 5 Dec 2006 in National Assembly: supported this Motion. As our children suffer in poverty, as we continue repaying loans borrowed, courtesy of wastage, and try to revive our economy, it is also critical that we look back into history and correct ills. I want to thank the Minister for Justice and Constitutional Affairs who has just said that the Government will use a tooth comb to go through the recommendations of the PAC and implement them. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, as we talk today people who were black-listed in relation to some contracts have been given other jobs which they are doing. The same ... view
• 5 Dec 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to move:- THAT, this House adopts the Report of the Public Accounts Committee on the Government of Kenya Accounts for the year 1999/2000 laid on the Table of the House on Thursday, 26th October, 2006. I want to thank you for giving me another chance to move this Motion. This is a report done by the same Committee that I chaired then. I would like to thank the hon. Members of the Committee who spared their time to enable the Committee, for the first time in the history of this country, to do ... view
• 5 Dec 2006 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, in the course of taking evidence, the Committee further noted, with regret, that the Attorney-General rarely won cases of the Government. Again, this is an issue that we, as a nation, must fully address. The Committee did not hear of any case the Attorney-General had won.

His office was either overwhelmed by the work load, there was laxity or he was incapable of representing the Government in court. Mr. Temporary ... view
