• 5 Jul 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Wamwere and I. The two of us will be the last in this House to pass a law that will kill democracy in this House, whether we are on the other side or this side of the House because we know where we are coming from. We know where we are coming from, having worked so hard and paid such a high price to bring democracy to this country. We must fight for it! I have lost a brother because of this and I am not prepared to lose more brothers in the Fourth Estate because a bad law ... view
• 4 Jul 2007 in National Assembly: On a point of order, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. Would I be in order to ask the Assistant Minister to table in this House the list of projects reviewed for implementation in the Financial Year 2007/2008 under Rural Electrification Programme? view
• 4 Jul 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, my point of order arises from the answer that he has given to the Questioner. We cannot be satisfied with that kind of an answer unless we have a list of projects reviewed for implementation--- view

• 4 Jul 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, while completely agreeing with the Minister, I would have gone further. I do not know whether it is already too late to re- amend the amendment, that apart from participation in construction, maintenance and management, communities and the private sector should also participate in ownership of roads, especially if we are looking forward to the build, transfer and operate manner of doing business. Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, even ownership of roads should be included in the communities and private sector participation. view
• 4 Jul 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, it effectively means that we shall be making law, given the good will of the Minister but that is not good enough. I think Parliament must make laws which will stand the test of time. In which case, the only cover that the Minister can have is for the word "suitable corporate body" to be defined in the Bill. Mr. Temporary Deuty Chairman, Sir, in the definition section, we can say: "suitable corporate body means---" then you list them. Otherwise, if you leave it as "suitable corporate body" then Mr. Kajwang is correct. It will ... view
• 4 Jul 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I appreciate the work done at the Committee Stage in this House. But I would like to draw attention of the Government, that although no amendments are normally moved when we are discussing amendments to a Bill, the opportunity should be used by the Government to note certain concerns of the House to the Bill being discussed and the amendments therein. So that the Government can eventually move amendments to a law passed because it is in the responsibility of this House to pass good laws at all July 4, 2007 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 2275 times. ... view
• 4 Jul 2007 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, let me join the House in congratulating the Ministry for a job well done. I just want to mention one thing. In the Republic of Kenya, we review the population of our country every ten years, if I am right. We also review the constituency boundaries every ten years. I would like to plead with the Minister to review the structure of roads in this country every ten years. I am saying this because in my constituency I have not seen new access roads for a long time, except one which we did recently during ... view
