• 9 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, it would be in the interest of this House to know nationally how many trainees were recruited by the Ministry. We want the nation updated on the capacity that we have in all the health centres in the country. view
• 9 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, while recognizing the important role the new Minister is playing in this Ministry, I would like him to indicate to this House what measures he is taking to motivate the athletes and the footballers in this nation in terms of allowances. What happened was a real fiasco, shameful and unacceptable. view
• 8 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, it has come out very clearly from the response given by the Assistant Minister that Ms. Irene Muchiri is currently jobless and traumatized. What humanitarian assistance has the Ministry extended to this innocent lady? view
• 8 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to ask the Minister for Higher Education, Science and Technology the following Question by Private Notice. Is the Minister aware that more than 4,500 University Lecturers have threatened to go on strike over the sacking of the Chairman of the University Academic Staff Union, Prof. Sammy Kubasu, formerly of Masinde Muliro University and if so, what immediate action is the Government taking to avert the strike? view
• 8 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, Prof. Sammy Kubasu was the Chairman of UASU at the Kenyatta University before proceeding to Masinde Muliro University as the Chair of the Union. On moving to the Masinde Muliro University, he was forcefully given a position as Chair of a Department. The borne of contention is that Prof. Kubasu was, in my view, not given a chance to look into pros and cons of the new engagement. Could the Assistant Minister indicate to this House whether Prof. Kubasu was consulted for the new appointment? view
• 8 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, in my view, this was a deliberate and malicious move by the Ministry to frustrate Prof. Kubasu. Could the Assistant Minister table a copy of the acceptance that was signed by Prof. Kubasu. view
• 8 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I take this opportunity to contribute to the debate on this very important report. One thing that I have noted is that the inter-Ministerial Committee failed to develop a report on the issue of the Artur brothers getting Government documents. These people were not investors and should not view
• 7 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, let me also take this opportunity to contribute to this very important Report. First, let me thank the Chairman of the Committee for the very many sittings that they have held. I know that they have conducted almost 100 sittings. This is real commitment and credible leadership provided by the Chairman of the Committee. I also take the opportunity to thank the hon. Members who were also gallant in terms of contributing to this very important Report. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I note with some frustration that the accounting officers who were called time ... view
• 7 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, if you recall, the Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Finance, Mr. Kinyua, three weeks ago talked about Kshs270 billion being misappropriated and stolen by our people. I call for faster investigations on those who have really embezzled this money so that necessary action can be taken against them. These are the people who are slowing down the pace of development in this country. Proper, faster investigation and prosecution must be mounted by those investigating this menace. There will be no need of looking for external funds if we view
• 7 Dec 2010 in National Assembly: Migingo Island is already contentious and is causing a lot of instability in some parts of this nation. Therefore, the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance should not continue with this external borrowing inconsiderably. We must borrow within our economic strength and performance. This money goes according to the report for physical development. Those unnecessary developments should be avoided. We have seen some white elephants scattered in the whole nation. These are consumers of this money. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, Kenya Revenue Authority has been doing good work. It is important that KRA does not allow contraband goods ... view
