• 11 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I beg to move that the Committee doth report to the House its consideration of the Senate amendments to the Access to Information Bill, National Assembly Bill No. 36 of 2015 and its approval thereof. view
• 11 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I beg to second the Motion. The fishing industry has been underdeveloped because the devolved function has not taken root in the devolved units. This will improve the fisheries department, the economy and the diet of Kenyans who want to eat white meat. With those few remarks, I beg to second.

• 11 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I beg to second the Motion. I congratulate Hon. Nyokabi for having worked so hard for so many days to ensure that Kenyans have a Bill that will ensure that we have civilised methods of ensuring that Kenyans can get relevant information to assist in the governance of this country and have effective communication in this era of technology. With those few remarks I support. view
• 10 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. First of all, I would like to note with a lot of appreciation that the Member who has brought this issue was actually a victim in the past. Those who know the history of Hon. Kang’ata know that he was expelled from the University of Nairobi because of a strike. He became a councillor.

Sometimes the problem is teenagehood. view
• 10 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, these students need justice. We should not judge them very harshly.

We visited two remote areas called Nuu and another one called Voo during Moi’s days. Incidentally, the people of Nuu and Voo hardly knew Moi but they knew Ndingi Mwana a Nzeki because of the work the NGOs had done in that area of drilling boreholes, a bit of roads and rock catchment where they tap rain water using rocks. The NGOs had really touched the lives of the people to the extent that they thought NGOs were ... view
• 10 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: It is a sad story to see legislation being delayed in implementation not because of anything that is holding the Executive back but, in this case, the CS. The CS might probably The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 10 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: think this is one of those things that are not urgent. Probably, they have marked the trays “in” and “out” but they also have urgent in what is not very urgent. Gone are those days when coats used to be left in the office, in-trays full and documentation or work done at leisure. It is a lesson to this National Assembly that even though we have clear separation of powers among the Legislature, the Executive and the Judiciary, there are some things we will not trust or leave any more, like an open cheque, to the CSs to implement.
