• 4 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. Is it in order for the hon. Member for Dagoretti, first of all, to anticipate debate because that Motion is here and is coming up for debate since it is already on the table of the House? Secondly, is it in order for her to mislead the House that the committee has recommended 24 per cent when, in fact, we have recommended the number of nominated Members of Parliament be increased to 36 and that 24 of them be women? If she wants to reject the 24, let her make ... view
• 4 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. It appears that every hon. Member who has stood to contribute is supporting this Motion. No one has spoken against the Motion. It appears that we have, really, exhausted debate on this Motion. So, would I be in order to move that the Mover be now called upon to reply, or that the Question be put? view
• 4 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to move the following Motion:- THAT, this House adopts the Report of the Departmental Committee on Administration of Justice and Legal Affairs on the International Federation of Women Lawyers (FIDA) nominee to the Kenya Anti-Corruption Advisory Board laid on the Table of the House on Wednesday, 28th March, 2007. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, this Report has been available to hon. Members for a very long time. A vacancy arose in the Advisory Board of the Kenya Anti-Corruption Commission due to a resignation of the lady who was originally nominated by FIDA. Hon. Members ... view
• 4 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: That is true, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. In fact, everybody takes cover, including the magistrate. These snakes actually come from the wooden floor, and even the prisoners run. Everybody runs for their dear life, including the lawyers. Why does this happen? It is because the Judiciary does not have its own budget to renovate courtrooms and to build new courts. So, when we subject them to these approvals, let us also give them financial autonomy. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, we vetted this particular individual very well and we are satisfied. The Report has been there that she is ... view
• 4 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I may have jumped the gun and called on hon. Mukiri to second the Motion. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to move. view
• 4 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. It has just occurred to me that there is a Standing Order that requires an hon. Member who is contributing to disclose if he has got a personal interest in a particular subject matter. Could the hon. Member really declare his problems with FIDA? view
• 3 Apr 2007 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I beg to seek your guidance on how some of these matters are to be handled. Here is a Minister and an Assistant Minister in the same Government disagreeing. Could they sort out these things away from the Floor of the House? view
• 28 Mar 2007 in National Assembly: Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. 168 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES March 28, 2007 view
• 28 Mar 2007 in National Assembly: I thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I do apologise for the other two times. The problem is that these microphones should be in a museum. This is a first generation public address system. The acoustics are sometimes not conducive to hearing what Mr. Speaker is saying. But I thank you. Mr. Speaker, Sir, in supporting the President's Address, I would wish to draw attention to the Nairobi Stock Exchange (NSE). There are very disturbing signs from the NSE. All too often, we do not take corrective action until a matter is out of hand. You are aware that the insurance ... view
• 28 Mar 2007 in National Assembly: If we do not do it, sooner than later, we are going to have a crisis and very many Kenyans, who invest in shares and stocks in the belief that the Government, through the CMA and the Treasury, regulates the NSE, will suffer. I would also appeal to the Departmental Committee on Finance, Planning and Trade to take interest and truly investigate what the facts are before matters go out of hand. The Committee should even question the Ministry of Finance. Let them find out who is in the CMA. Are they able to discharge their mandate? How do you ... view
