  • 6 Nov 2015 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, just an intervention. On the day we appointed this Special Committee, I brought to the attention of this House the possible consequences of us failing to plan well with the Committee with the restriction of the 10 days within which this Committee is supposed to submit a report to this House. I made a passionate plea that we have an arrangement with this Committee where we urge them to ensure that these Senators will have enough time to interrogate the report before coming to plenary. This is now when the chickens have come home to roost. None ... view
  • 6 Nov 2015 in Senate: We must put a stop to plunder, corruption and misuse of public funds, and that the people of Murang’a will find the justice they deserve. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. view
  • 4 Nov 2015 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. During the debate on the formation of the Special Committee, I raised a very important issue about the time when we receive this report from the Committee and the time when we debate it. Because the norm has been that we receive the report, we go through it for a few minutes and we are asked and required to vote, to contribute to this report before. We had made a request as we discuss this whether it is possible to have an intervention from the Chair so that when this report is ready, it ... view
  • 3 Nov 2015 in Senate: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. We are debating a very serious issue, I seek your guidance on what has been argued and canvassed by the Minority Leader and also by Sen. Murkomen.

Just for clarity of the House. view

  • 3 Nov 2015 in Senate: On a point of order. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. While the HANSARD bears the Senate Minority Leader’s words exactly what he asked you to rule on, it is very clear that the question on the table this afternoon that you were asked to rule on is; can one side of this House walk out and leave the other side to pretend to continue with business? I want to urge that we look at the HANSARD as you make your ruling because that is the question that is on the table. view
  • 3 Nov 2015 in Senate: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. It is just because I was concerned when the debate started to take another direction, but then the Speaker could be asked to go fishing, to introduce other matters that were not in the question. view
  • 3 Nov 2015 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I seek your indulgence. I affirm that I do not intend to contradict your ruling. However, in the course of deliberations this afternoon, there has been constant reference to the Deputy Governor, Mr. Kiala’s impeachment, and it is in the HANSARD. I request that in your ruling; kindly assist this House to interpret what the Standing Order No.68(5) means in this case--- view
  • 3 Nov 2015 in Senate: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I do not intend to canvass it, but I just wanted to bring to your attention the--- view
  • 28 Oct 2015 in Senate: Thank you Mr. Speaker, Sir. I rise to support the formation of this Committee. However, I would like to raise two quick issues on matters of procedure. First, on Standing Order No. 68 1 (a):- The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate. view
