• 28 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, the Committee had already dealt with the question of the Party Candidate Expenditure Committee. In terms of the obligation of reporting, they would remain. Even though candidates will be reporting on their own, parties would also have to report on their expenditure. The 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
• 28 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: question he has raised is important. There is need for a step of reporting to the party by candidates and a further step of reporting to the IEBC. He seems to suggest that we do not need the party step, and that if candidates are going to report, then they should report directly to the IEBC. However, in the spirit of the new Constitution, and even in the spirit of where we are going, even in the sense of how the House is now organised, where we have got a Majority Coalition and Minority Coalition, we are going into a ... view
• 28 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, in cleaning the law, we have already adopted a new definition of “authorised persons”, wherever it applies. Where it refers to the candidates, we will not have the term “Party Candidate Expenditure Committee”. We will instead have the candidates or their agents as is in the definition. However, the duty of giving detailed information will still apply even to the candidate. That is what this speaks to – that the candidate will then have to comply and send these particular details to the Commission. The only part in respect of which I have sympathy with the ... view
• 28 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: finish that, you file the final campaign expenditure report because once you win, you assume the duties of representing the constituents. So, I have sympathy to deletion of that clause. The other duties shall remain. Thank you. view
• 28 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: I think in the spirit of moving closer to Nakuru, I do not oppose this amendment. I do accept it as it improves the final reporting that is required so that the candidates can then concentrate on their campaigns. They had already submitted their limits. They would only be required to submit the final report. So, I do support that amendment. view
• 28 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, the amendment that he is proposing will fit much more neatly in Clause 8. One of the good things about it is that he has a lot of experience in running a political party. The particular amendment would be to the effect that of the three signatories nominated by the governing body of the party to constitute the party expenditure committee, one of those persons shall be the Secretary General, who in the Political Parties Act is named as a signatory. view
• 28 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: In Clause 8 (1)(a) there is already a provision of “three of whom shall be persons nominated by the governing body of that political party. Other proviso, “one of whom shall be the Secretary General of the party”. view
• 28 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: I think in the circumstances, I am constrained not to accept the proposal by hon. Eng. Gumbo. By deleting this entire clause, we will lose some of the benefits that were envisaged by having candidates keep a relationship with the parties. If we delete it entirely until after the elections then that particular benefit is going to be nullified. We will be requesting hon. Eng. Gumbo to also, in view of the proposal for 21 days that has been raised by the Chairperson of the party of the national alliance and who The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report ... view
• 28 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: speaks from experience about parties--- Looking at the way the drafting has been done, there is need for a preliminary report to go to the parties. Some benefit is supposed to be derived from being members of the party. The Member bringing the amendment seems to be really pessimistic about political parties. My plea to him is that as we move forward and as we look at the law on political funding we are going to have, by the time of the election--- I know this particular Parliament has not been able to give any funds to political parties. There ... view
• 28 Nov 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would have more difficulties in deleting some of the subclauses. The only thing I am not sure of from the amendments, by the hon. Member, is what then is left on subclause (5) because you did not propose a deletion of subsection (5). Therefore, we delete only “subsections (1) (b), (2), (3) and (4)” while part of it is left. view
